As i reported a few days ago here about the absence of Malcolm Stewart from the opening round of Monster Energy Supercross it seems the 'last minute issue' has been resolved.

Malcolm Stewart will once again be throwing his leg over a factory bike! He flew out to Southern California earlier in the week and had a test ride for the Autotrader Yoshimura Suzuki Factory team JGR. He clearly must have impressed as he has just been confirmed as the stand in rider for the injured Justin Bogle. Stewart will jump into the mix straight away and will make his debut at Houston this weekend.

"WARNING: Content may melt the internet! We are excited to welcome @MalcolmStewart to the @AutoTrader_com @Yoshimura_RD @SuzukiCycles team. Malcolm will be filling in for the injured Justin Bogle on a race-by-race basis starting this weekend in Houston. Bogle sustained a concussion at the Monster Energy Cup and then sustained a similar injury a couple of weeks later, so is not able to race. There is no timeline on his recovery."

Malcolm Stewart had initially set up a privateer Kawasaki to compete in this years Monster Energy Supercross but was unable to get everything in place for round one. Seems that sent out the message to JGR that he was ready and the call was made.

Good luck Malcolm, i look forward to your return race this weekend :)

God bless you

Thank you @kospi :)

Lol I feel like there’s always a lot of injuries resulting in a spare bike or two so he was going to get his chance eventually. Whether he can make something of it is a different story but here’s to hoping he does well!

Also...do some people even read your post before they comment?! Not to be rude because your articles are great but seriously some people lol

Yeah i know what you mean @phamished, unfortunate side effect of this scene :( I think he is good enough to ride full time though and I'm very surprised at the level of riders who find themselves without Factory rides. Maybe they are hard to work with or the fees are too high perhaps..

As for the comments, i appreciate every single comment and vote and yes i hope people read and enjoy my content. There will always be some who are here for no reason other than for profit but that is not the power of steemit :)

Enjoy the vote and reward!

For sure not a Stewart fan but I guess its good he has a ride :) Hope he can keep it together this year .. hopefully his Brother will stay away :) Looking forward to an exciting year.

I think he will do ok, he has previous on Suzuki bikes and he has the bloodline :)
Haha you can't tell me that it would not be a more entertaining race with James in? I want him back for the drama :)

Love some good Stewart drama :)
