Even when word got out that the GEICO Honda team might have to close up shop, everyone knew Honda would find a place for Jett Lawrence. The 17-year-old Australian is the hottest prospect in the sport after a rookie pro season that saw him nearly win his third supercross race, then cap the year with a Lucas Oil Pro Motocross overall win at Fox Raceway. Plus, his off-track persona gives him popularity beyond his results. This week, Jett\'s Honda HRC factory 250F ride was announced as official, as was his new deal with Red Bull, which led to a cool video where he rides a half-width supercross track. Jason Weigandt rang up Jettson for a conversation about his new ride, his 2020 season, and the strange small-world story of training with Ken Roczen\'s dad back in the day.
