Exhaust #6: Ryan Dungey

Jason Weigandt dials up Ryan Dungey and gets a solid hour of candid conversation with the four-time Monster Energy Supercross Champion. Dungey reveals much, explaining his struggles with the mental side—including hiring a sports psychologist—to Eli Tomac's charge last season, the 2017 Vegas finale, and the burnout that he feels led to his injury in 2016, and consequently considering retirement. He even explains how he and Ken Roczen, rivals at the time, ended up living across the street from each other! He also addresses the rumors that have him returning for Lucas Oil Pro Motocross this summer. He's moved back to Minnesota and is figuring out what's next for his life post-racing, but for now, there are still many racing stories to tell. The Racer X Exhaust Podcast is sponsored by Yoshimura.
