I would bet money that the practice get off hurt him. That was not the normal JS7 on the bike. Comfortable or not on a bike, the only times I have seen or can remember seeing james ride like that were when he had the messed up wrist in 10.

he wasnt scrubbing anything, which we see him do even when the bike isnt to his liking. The way he got snapped in practice, I have done that, got a broken wrist out of it. I dont know what happened to JS7, but again, I bet something got tweaked from that.

Rag Doll'd hard in the crash.

The track looked really slippery to me but I agree Stewart looked a little off. Stewart of old would have passed Weimer and checked out.

He turned Pro in 2002.

He is going to have a tough time gaining those 19 points back. Villo has already shown that even a half a lap head start/crash can't stop him from getting top 5 points. Twice.

But yea, I was waiting for Stewart to pass those 2 like they were going backwards. just didnt happen.

He did not look right
Can't say if it was him or the bike, but he did not look comfortable

and the whoop section that bit him got Brayton and a few others and a few close calls

05 was when they went to war when james moved up. 1 season outdoors I dont really count so much. There was rivalry, but war didnt start until 05.

How can James stop him from "getting top 5 points?" How could anyone stop him from doing that??? If he can stay off the ground he will be fine and being able to hold off for RV just might be a confidence booster for him.

That still doesn't negate the fact that we have been watching him and he has been racing since 2002.

From what I can tell it seems that his aggression has toned down from 2010 and on.

that I think is part bike, part father time. but last night, after watching the race just now, something was different and the only time I can remember james doing straight up and down jumps over triples was when his wrist was jacked up in 2010.

even when his bike was way off, he would still scrub the triples and soak up rythum sections. last night, did not look like james from the week before and last year. just sayin.

Got his first podium after a huge crash in practice.
He now has a little bit of a base to build off.

What do you think goes through his head now a days? Everytime he hits the deck, I wonder if he's cussin out the bike or himself. He's either gotta be injured/sick, or losing his cool with the Yamaha, Pirelli setup. Never thought id say this but I kinda feel bad for that dude right now

That track was a tricky one. there weren't to many guys who looked "comfortable" out there. Landings on some of the jumps coming into a few of the corners......they almost came to a dead stop.

Looked like a hard track to keep your momentum going.

i don't think you know what you are talking about, or even comprehended my post. it's cool though, i pity anyone who self-nicknames themselves multiple times.

something wrong there. major character flaw. unless of course, when you alk into the grocery store, the bag boy goes "hey!!! is the Chuck D of motodrive!!!!", in which case, i stand corrected, Mr. "D. of M.D."
