Ken Roczen has had his say on Jett Lawrence saying he let Ken win the second moto as a baby gift and to push Sexton back to third place points – even though Sexton would have been third with Kenny second or first in race two! See below:
“I had a great day with my team @hepmotorsports yesterday. We were super solid all day! I made a suspension change for moto 1 that i didn’t quite get along with so i went as fast as i could for what it allowed me to do. Finished 3rd in that one after some passes made early on. 2nd main, well i could care less about a “oh so kind baby gift” win from Jett. Thank you so much. I really appreciate it… the math didn’t make a difference whatsoever on the overall anyway. What i did love was the effort i was able to put in and the speed we were going. Not letting him go, and also reeling jett in when i needed to. I guess i just like seeing hard work paying off. We made a suspension change that i already ran in qualifying with an adjustment after the sight lap and that was what allowed me to ride to my full potential. Thank you @activeride The Fans were unreal yesterday once again and i am super glad i am able to make it a bit exciting. You guys are the absolute best and i am thankful to be able to feel that kind of love! Looking forward to one more round next weekend.”
