Webb: overall, I think the momentum is starting to swing for my end, for sure…
The high-octane world of motocross is one where every second counts, and every decision can make the difference between victory and defeat. As the new season progresses, one thing is becoming crystal clear: the momentum is starting to swing in my favor. After a challenging start, I’m finally seeing the results of the hard work and dedication I’ve poured into my training and performance. It’s a feeling that’s hard to describe—after months of grinding, battling through setbacks, and learning from each race, it feels like everything is finally starting to click.
Looking back at the beginning of the season, things didn’t start off the way I had hoped. Early races were filled with unpredictable obstacles—mechanical issues, unexpected crashes, and moments of doubt. It was frustrating, to say the least. The competition was fierce, with top riders pushing the limits every time they hit the track. At times, it felt like I was stuck in a rut, struggling to find the rhythm I needed to compete at the highest level.
But with every setback came an opportunity to improve. I began to adjust my approach, not only in terms of my riding but also in how I prepared mentally. Motocross isn’t just a physical sport; it’s a mental game. Staying focused, overcoming doubt, and learning to stay calm in the chaos of the race is as important as nailing that perfect corner or executing a flawless jump.
Over the past few weeks, the changes I made have started to pay off. In the latest rounds, my performance has been steadily improving. I’ve found myself finishing higher on the leaderboard, inching closer to the podium. While I’m not quite at the top just yet, the gap is closing, and it’s becoming clear that the momentum is on my side now.
One of the biggest factors in this turnaround has been refining my bike setup. After working closely with my crew and my mechanic, we’ve fine-tuned every aspect of my machine. From suspension adjustments to tire choices, we’ve taken a more personalized approach, ensuring that the bike is perfectly suited to my riding style. When the bike feels like an extension of myself, it allows me to push harder, lean into turns with more confidence, and maintain speed through rough sections of the track. That extra bit of control has been crucial in improving my consistency.
The mental aspect of the sport has also evolved. I’ve learned to embrace the pressure of the competition, rather than let it get the best of me. Each race is a new opportunity to showcase what I’ve worked for, and I’m now viewing every challenge as a chance to grow. The confidence I’ve built over the past few weeks is palpable. Every lap feels smoother, every corner feels sharper, and every race feels like a chance to prove that the momentum is truly on my side.
Another key element in this shift has been my strategy during the races. In the past, I might have focused too much on speed, trying to push ahead of my rivals at all costs. Now, I’m playing a smarter game. I’ve learned to pace myself, picking the right moments to attack and the right moments to conserve energy. It’s a delicate balance between aggression and strategy, and I’m beginning to master it.
The results have been noticeable, both in terms of my performance and how my competitors are reacting. I’m starting to hear whispers in the paddock, with other riders taking notice of my growing presence on the track. I’ve seen a few of them push a little harder, knowing that I’m now a serious contender. It’s a good feeling—knowing that I’ve made my mark and that others are recognizing the change in momentum.
But it’s not just about my personal progress. The entire team has been firing on all cylinders. The support from my crew, my trainer, and my sponsors has been unwavering. We’re all working together towards the same goal, and that unity is driving the results. The collective effort is creating an environment where success is becoming inevitable.
With the season in full swing, there’s no doubt that I’m on the right trajectory. The momentum is shifting in my favor, and I’m more determined than ever to see it through to the end. The championship is still within reach, and I know that every race from here on out is an opportunity to prove that this is just the beginning. I’m not stopping now—this momentum is mine to keep, and I’m ready to take on whatever comes next. The path to the top is getting clearer, and I’m ready to ride it all the way to the finish line.
