Haiden Deegan confirmed yesterday he was planning to go and race at the AusX Open until he wasn’t.
Steve Matthes gave his view on the situation:
It takes two things to make that happen, them to ask the promoters to agree so I don't see an issue. This goes back to the USA thing on podium 2 years ago, Lawrence family was pissed then- I took heat for it but Brian admitted at Ironman it was all for show. https://t.co/VLe3TgawAI

Yeah, maybe down the road there will be consequences for Lawrence's…right now, there appears to be consequences to Deegan's acting the way they did towards the family. Maybe Deegan's will get something on them, IDK. Again, promoter agreed to this so I guess blame them also? https://t.co/wSq19Zve7H

He's not banned from racing..he's free to sign up and go race. Let's get that straight, what he's not going to do is get any start money from promoters. https://t.co/Zk30pKmywg

The lyrics of the song are interesting…
Lawrence v Deegan might just get to Marquez and Rossi levels – the sport, with the two biggest stars on the planet, will explode if that happens.
