Jett and Hunter Lawrence Respond to Haiden Deegan Controversy at AUSX Open Press Conference

The 2024 AUSX Open in Melbourne has been buzzing with excitement, but amidst all the thrilling racing action, a question arose that stirred up some tension in the press room. During a recent press conference, reigning motocross champions Jett and his brother Hunter Lawrence were asked to address the rumors surrounding Haiden Deegan’s exclusion from the AUSX competition this year.

As the journalists pointed to speculation that the Lawrence brothers may have had a hand in preventing Deegan from competing, Jett Lawrence couldn’t help but smile before responding to the allegations.

“That’s just ridiculous,” said Jett, with his trademark calm confidence. “I have no idea where that came from, but it’s not true. We’re here to race, and that’s all that matters. I’m focused on doing my best out there, just like everyone else.”

Hunter Lawrence, ever the supportive sibling, backed up his brother’s words. “We want fans to focus on the racing,” Hunter explained. “The AUSX Open is all about the athletes showcasing their skills, not about these rumors and distractions. Everyone’s here to perform, and that’s what we should be talking about.”

The question about Haiden Deegan’s absence at the event was clearly an unwelcome distraction for the Lawrence brothers, who have been in the spotlight for their impressive performances on the Australian motocross scene. Jett, who is known for his composed demeanor both on and off the bike, brushed off the allegations with ease, while Hunter, always the protector, emphasized the importance of moving past rumors to celebrate the talent in the sport.

Fans have rallied behind the Lawrence brothers, showing their support for the duo, who are set to continue their dominance in the AUSX series. As the 2024 season kicks into full gear, it’s clear that the Lawrence brothers are focused on one thing – giving fans the kind of electrifying racing they’ve come to expect.

For now, fans and riders alike can look forward to the upcoming rounds of the AUSX Open, where the action on the track will speak louder than any rumors. The Lawrence brothers have made it clear: let the racing do the talking.
