What is the baseball code? It is a system of intimidation, retribution and retaliation between pitchers and hitters.
Barcia was on the podium ! KR not - KR put the move on Barcia - Barcia retaliated and the result was the intimidation worked for him this time and he got 3rd - KR did not - KR was the loser - Shame - It is SX racing not some other sport where the actual concept is to WIN ? The nicest sweetest guy at the end of the Championship does not get a trophy.
It is actually part of the SX concept where you are actually supposed to not let the guy behind you pass you. If the loser wants to shed tears and the supporters of the loser shed tears then it must be a hormone thing. It is not the actual SX racing concept
Barcia's was effective in warding of the challenge of KR ! Is that now supposed to be bad thing ? Should they ban Whips ? No !
Shame we all do feel so sorry for poor Kenny .....
Neither does a guy with a fractured sternum, broken back or a snapped femur.
I don't think many people have an issue with aggressive racing, but there is an unwritten code of conduct out there otherwise it would just be a demolition derby each week. I like Barcia but he crossed that line last night. he could also have been the one that came off worse.
He would get respect if he said "I had plenty of room...and I was messing with KR....deal with it". But he makes up a BS story about doing it every lap to justify something he probably knows now was risky and dangerous to both them.
if you are going to start shit like that you have to do it all the way.
Barcia realy lost all his credibility with those moves, if you want to be an asshole on the track, cool, than don't bitch arround when that stuff hapens to you.
Watch the podium interview....it was not on purpose.
He scrubbed that way over that jump every time and that time Roczen was closer than he thought.
I can certainly see where it would be sketchy as hell from Kenny's position but he was front row and I doubt they talked after the race.
It was right on the broadcast and some of you jackasses just run with it anyway.
Pit Row
I like Barcia but seriously think that move was just dumb.
Compliments of GuyB
I saw the great European Roger DeCoster take out Hannah, in mid air, at Unadilla.
Hannah was also being a pest, and The Man had had enough.
Even flipped Bob the finger as he roosted away with Hannah on the ground.
Nothing new here, move on to the safety meeting you guys crave so much.
That whip was very cocky and we all know Barcia ain't there to race clean and safe.
In the end, his cocky whip payed off. KR did not pass him and he got on to the podium.
oh, and i have to add: I don't like the kid at all...
You keep track of them, you just know. "I didn't even know he was there" I call bullshit. Just a bad decision
on Barcia's part. I think it was Phoenix(?) last year when one of the 3digit riders punted Dunge off the track.
Actually causing him to jump off the track and crash bad. they said it was because Grant clipped him but but you can see
him starting to lay over the bike prior to grant coming down.

Is this a wine tasting contest or a motorcycle race?
Is this where we're heading?
