Daniel Blair shared some insider news in his latest Main Event Moto show on YouTube. He mentioned that riders like Levi Kitchen, Tom Vialle, Chance Hymas, and Jo Shimoda might be the top contenders for the 250 class outdoors next year, as Haiden Deegan is expected to move up to the 450 class. This sets the stage for the highly anticipated showdown between Deegan and Jett Lawrence, often described as “oil vs. water,” which may not be too far off!
Blair said: “As much as I bet it stings to have the mouthy one up over 50 (points), second place in points isn’t going to sting that bad come the off season, with Haiden going 450 next summer, the battle for 2025 favourite is up in the air.”
The future era of the sport’s two biggest stars is nearly upon us. Picture the mind games an aggressive Deegan will play as he tries to unsettle the calm and collected Jett, both on and off the track! And let’s not forget, Jorge Prado will also be joining the mix, while Sexton, unless something unexpected happens, is likely to have the number 1 plate.
Let’s see how Haiden Deegan looks on a 450
