I talked to Vince earlier this year during Supercross, and told him if he spent more time trying to go fast, and less time jacking with people, he'd probably be a lot faster.

This one's from the second 450 practice. He's tangling with Weston Peick, who he'd dueled with at the PIR race last Thursday.

Friese is a hazard to the sport! At PIR he threatened a fan that told him his blatant take out move on Peick was chicken shit. Friese said "I am going to break your face". The guy is unstable and it's only a matter of time before he seriously hurts someone on the track not to mention off the track. It's beyond me that Genova supports this guy!

So did you offer Dungey or Stewart and free advice?

I do not get the unwavering support from MC either. DV fired Friese last year but as soon as DV is gone he is right back with the team.

No. They don't need my advice.

haha Peick is a massive human good luck with that Friese... next he'll go to the GP's and try to take on De Dycker

is Friese the first rider to ride two different manufacturers in the same year on the same team?

Honda 250's in SX and now Suzuki 450's

I can hear Friese saying years after he quits racing, "wish I knew then what I know now".

Man, talk about putting a guy on blast. Friese is a bit over the top when it comes to rubbing plastic, one or the other almost always ends up on the ground.

Doesn't Friese come from a family with money? If so that might be the reason he got the ride, he bought it. The guy is crap, dont know why the AMA doesnt just ban him, I mean he gets into it almost every week with someone...

There was some post-ramming wrestling.

I saw those two near each other heading toward the backside of the track. I leaned over and told three fans along the fence to watch the corner where they ended up tangling. 30 second later? Blam.

I don't dislike Vinny and I respect the fact that he his racing at the high level of the sport ect...
But moves like that in practice are idiotic....He is like the second coming of Sorby.
I remember Eric doing all sorts of stuff like that in practice ...or where ever he could lol....it never really did him any good.
Causes more problems for your self then it does good.
The point is, try to move forward and race ->
Quit jacking with guys. lol

Friese has a bad reputation for being an ass clown. Only a matter of time before he really gets his arse kicked.

I used to think to that he can't really be that bad. But after hearing him on DMXS, I'm convinced that there's something wrong with him. Where does that attitude towards the other riders come from? MTF?

The ama has nothing to do with pro racing. I have the e mail to prove it.

He seems like he is awfully sensitive fellow,whether someone passes him or he is in front of someone ect....
Or even says something to him ect..on the line or even a fan like what you have mentioned.
I've watched the guy for a while now,I was hoping to see the dude turn around eventually.
Someone seriously needs to sit him down and have a serious talk with him...and I don't mean the AMA/FIM/MxSports/Ect..
Maybe someone he looks up to that he will listen to and apply the advice they give him.
The guy needs to go out and ride his own race and not worry about other racers/riders on the track.....block that shit out and pretend he is at the practice track on a Monday afternoon by himself riding clear headed.
I think it would help him greatly to move forward and elevate his career/results,rather then go backwards or stay stagnant.
He wont be around that long or have much of a career if he keeps pulling the shit he does,eventually it will catch up to him/get the best of him. He is either gonna get hurt or hurt someone else.
I don't see any good coming out of that shit.

Awesome. I currently have them both in my fantasy team. Watch them both get DQ'd 5 minutes before the start...

I think it's funny that you didn't see him trying this stuff to Windham after he was punted last fall.

Why hasn't someone just knocked this small guy out already? Usually a guy with his attutude doesn't stand long at any "local" bar in the country, why should the pits be any different when it comes to the chest pounders?

Vinnie sure does know how to make himself unpopular. Busting moves like that in practice is just stupid. I also thought he seemed like a bit of a doucher on DMXS.

I would have to say some of the comments are true about motoconcepts makes questionable picks on riders for sure. But the fact is, Alessi used to be a snot nosed little punk and seems to finally be getting his shit together. So, it's give and take.

Friese raced backwards to 14th and Pieck finished 9th from a mid pack start. Solid ride for Weston!
