Malcolm Stewart on losing his job with Rockstar Energy Husqvarna

Two tales for Malcolm Stewart this weekend. On one finish he races and completed eighth. Okay. That’s one factor. The greater story is that this week’s information that Rockstar Energy Husqvarna is closing up store and that Stewart, who was speculated to have a deal for 2026 and 2027, is out of a experience. We caught as much as him after the race to search out out what’s occurring.

Racer X: This in all probability is not the best way you envisioned your self coming into the finale, however you had some good moments on the market. How was it for you?
Malcolm Stewart: Every time I come right here to Salt Lake the followers are all the time superior. We did not have the very best outcome tonight [eighth in 450SX]however typically that is what racing is about. There are highs, there are lows. I do not really feel like tonight was a low, it was extra of simply, not the very best evening. The observe was powerful and it was very exhausting to make up time. Obviously within the whoops I had a bonus, however I used to be losing time in all places else. I did not do myself any favors on the beginning and by the point I caught as much as these guys the race was virtually over. But it’s what it’s, and large shoutout to Ken Roczen for successful that championship. That was actually cool to see these two go into it like that. I like seeing tight battles like that. Obviously I’d wish to be the one who’s in it, however whenever you’re not, you get to look at and it is fairly cool.
