MXGP rider Kay de Wolf, 21, has signed a multi-year extension with Nestaan Husqvarna, choosing to remain in Europe despite interest from Pro Circuit's Mitch Payton about a move to America. 'I wanted to stay in Europe and get at least one MXGP world title,' he said, adding, 'I'm only 21, so I could still make the move in three years.' De Wolf recently stood on the podium at the Lommel MXGP.

Having your sights set beyond the next title at 21 is impressive. Not getting swayed by an offer from America isn't easy — I've seen that up close in this business. Riding the momentum of that Lommel podium and growing one more level with a team he already trusts is the smarter shortcut. Going after the MXGP title first is the right call, in my book.

Feels like we'll be having this same conversation again in three years.

Depends on the contract length — they did say multi-year.

That kind of judgment at 21 — huge potential.

Turning down Payton's offer honestly surprised me.

That 'feels like family' line is genuinely great.
