So happy Eli's sticking around we get to witness more BEAST MODE! I feel he's one of the only guys to give Jett a run for his money and he's been building over the season and we haven't seen the best of him yet. Can't wait to see him get back to his full potential.

I love to see Eli so happy these days he was always stone cold in his younger days. Us fans appreciate everything you've done and accomplished in the sport. I hope he has another 2-3 years and then rides off into the sunset and remains an ambassador for Yamaha.

As an aussie, by default I'm going for technically an underdog of the sport in Jett but im absolutely stoked to hear my favourite rider of all time is continuing on, and mention of 2025? Absolutely unreal. Tomac truly is a beast

I'd be in for it! I also heard Star Racing Yamaha may not have the budget to keep Eli around but honestly sounds crazy to me. You do whatever it takes to keep Eli! Would be a huge mistake to let him go.

I feel like Tomacs entire comeback is fueled by Zachos tweet a year or two ago. Ever since then, Elis #1 objective is to prove Zachos wrong,!

I like it that Eli "Tippy Toe" Tomac will be racing MX this Summer. But, and I think that everyone would agree that it's a Big But, he isn't doing his legacy a favor. I don't expect to see Eli in 2025.

@harvey663able 2 ай бұрын

Wait, didn't he do something similar last year? Just before Denver (just like this) he did a interview with nbc to announce he was going to race outdoors and smx. Then he went out and was leading and popped the Achilles. I hope history dont repeat or this could be his "Achilles heal". (No pun intended, okay maybe a little 😉)

Nbc sports you need to step up production. We want to see the battles for position. I'm sitting here watching f1 and they haven't shown verstappen for most of this sprint race. Why? Because there is nothing interesting about watching the leader. It's called a race. And everyone who sticks up for this go watch f1. The pinnacle of racing.

lol F1 is just as boring. I don’t give a F about battles for 15th and 13th. Battles for zero points… so exciting.

Never been a fan of his but respect him for what he's done. He finally learned how to deal with the media and public a bit..Smile and be personable vs. his old straight faced stoic looks. Everyone likes to root for the "old guy" now.
