Yep i totally agree that there was why he has 3 # 1 plates. Great ride. I just hope K-roc is ok for Daytona and Same as JS so we can have another great battle at Daytona all 3 of those riders are awesome on the track. i can't remember when i have seen RV only 2 victories after 9 races . i know he has the points lead but normally by now he has 3 or 4 wins

technically, when he got going from his crash there was only one ride behind him. even if people were down shortly after.... I think we can round that to last.

Since he was fourth perhaps we can round him as from last to podium?WhistlingEvil

Really, I thought I saw his bike down in last or 2nd to last and he got up first of the 2 riders in last, but it is that important to you
from 2nd to last to 4th. Go RV1Woohoo From 9 points to 23 points.

Semantics really, Stewart crashed in the left hand turn just after RV and Roczen went down. You can see it on the replay of the start they showed. Stewart got squirelly and took out two other riders when RV and Roczen were still on the ground. RV got up and passed Stewart and the other two riders on the ground so in reality went from 18th to 4th.

He is up almost a full race on the field.... Yup... Time to start looking forward to the outdoors (where he will do more of the same)...

I just watched it again, they didn't show Stewarts crash.

They didn't, but you can see him on the on off section right after the start. Look for his bluish purple gear and you will see him.

They do...but you have to watch carefully.

At 2:08...you see Stew gets on it, but Seeley came across. Stews mistake I think....he got on it with Seeley in front of him....and Seeley came across and Stew bouced into him...they shot back left.

By the way...listen to Ralph at 2:35...what a complete IDIOT.

Looking at the chart, Stewart didn't get around the slower riders nearly as fast as RV. Remember when he could pass 10 riders in less than a lap? I didn't realize Wilson started that far back and that is a good ride to get 10th. Josh Hill actually rode really well if you see that he was in dead last, for the first 4 laps to come back and beat Wilson. Bad ride by Chris Blose to go backwards with a good start. I wonder if Tickle got a holeshot, could he get on the podium cause he is always good in ruts?

I was really hoping Alessi would get on the podium and watch him ball his eyes out. The mobile medical unit would of had to put an IV in to replenish all the fluids he lost! WoohooWoohooLaughing

Here were the gaps at the end of lap 1:

800 Leader
5 -1.35
3 -1.51
10 -2.9
68 -3.1
21 -4.1
23 -4.57
29 -5.47
20 -5.68
33 -6.42
27 -6.88
40 -7.70
415 -8.62
606 -9.55
77 -10.48
1 -10.67
11 -12.05
371 -163.64
15 -15.26
94 -16.69
7 -20.75
75 -26.58

RV did gap stew by almost 9s at the end from where they were at lap 2. But when you are so far down at the start...it is pretty hard to charge into a groove.

Now...if you look at the numbers...the guy who had perhaps the ride of his LIFE..was HILL! By lap 9...he had caught Stew...and stayed with him till the end.
