Yesterday, Monster Energy Kawasaki released a press release announcing the immediate termination of Davi Millsaps from his contract with the team. As fast as the press release hit the press, the speculation rumors began to fly about the reasoning behind or cause of Millsaps’ surprise termination. MotoXAddicts has been texting and digging trying to get more information on the situation, but all we have is more accusations and speculation to add. With that, we’ll continue to dig and see if we can come up with something more concrete before we report anything.

Today, though, Davi Millsaps released a vague statement of his own confirming his firing and dropping light hints. You can read what Davi had to say in his statement below.

“Although my results have not been what I had hoped for up to this point, I have continued to give my best effort and have fulfilled all of my contractual obligations. I am aware that there is much speculation regarding my termination. While I am not at liberty to discuss details, I can say without equivocation that I have not violated any AMA or FIM rule or regulation. At this point I am evaluating my options, both professional and legal. I apologize to my fans, sponsors and fellow competitors for the confusion this has caused. I want to especially thank Monster Energy for continuing to stand behind me. I look forward to resolving this and getting back to racing. See you soon.”
