AMA chest protector

I've heard conversation coming out of animal pens that is more intelligent than what is going on in here.

I think this is about being comfortable or not. What top riders are looking for is lap times. They just want to be as fast as possible and obviously, if you don't wear chest, elbow protections... you'll be more comfortable and move freely and probably, it makes you win those valuables tenth.

I don't know, I think that FIM and AMA should force them to ride all this protections because some injuries could have been prevented. For instance, some years ago Dakar organizers obliged riders to wear a Leatt Brace to take part in the race.

Or not. Saw plenty of pros not wearing any, just putting the jersey on.

Looks like a modified Fox titan suit is my best guess.
