Yes it should have been a ban for a few races.

wouldn't it be a cool concept,when a rider gets fined, half the fine goes to other rider?
im sure ama would bumped that dollar amount ,if it did go that way.

So my post on this subject, about the fine being more than his likely annual AMA main event payouts, gets deleted?

Yet the thread about Jeremy Martin not making 2 main events because he is "banging" some girl racer lives on....?

Classy move "moderators".

I think fines usually go to the Asterisk medical program.

In the past, fines levied go to the Asterisks Mobile Medial Unit.

The $4000 fine is correct. He's also on probation through the end of the Supercross season.

The penalty was not appealed.

The sports bar I was at had it on one TV and soon enough all the TV's had it on. When Alessi did the T-bone I was pretty pissed but the Bar went nuts yelling "hell ya" and shit. Then I came to realize this is what is needed for the sport to get traction for the mainstream fan to tune in every week.

I heard one guy yell " Hey, Hannah is back!"

Like it or not this is what the average fans tunes into see

Fines like this are not going to do anything for anyone

The reward still outweighs the risk for Alessi

Even though I think Alessi's move was really stupid, I think Carey Hart and P!nk over-reacted and were immature in their responses. This isn't the first time Carey Hart has been immature in his response.

Pink….no.

Carey Hart with his "beat you and your dads ass" tweet…maybe, but even then probably not. That was a dirty move if I've ever seen one. He could have broke Brocs leg and Mike wasn't racing. He launched his bike into Broc. I've really tried to like Mike. Even after laser gate and Mike's heat win crybaby session, but I just can't. Jeff, Mike, Tony, they are all losers.

HMMM??? must be something with location then because the place I was at everyone that knew any thing about moto started cussing the Alessi name and the ones that didn't know anything about moto kind of gasped in disbelief!! One old guy that was there laughs and said "that number 800 don't ride to good, does he?!" Looks like he signed up for demolition derby and the other guys don't know"

It's weird to me how he did the same thing to bubba a couple weeks back, and then did it again this week.

If you are not going to apply a penalty that really hurts, why apply one at all? Just to look like you "did something?"

Mike is a passionate guy that just makes super poor choices at the wrong time. As RC during the telecast, why he will never go to the next level.
His Dad is a knuckle head and his boys it seems have a poor example to follow. To bad for mike because he is talented and every time you think he is going in the right direction stuff like this happens. Its kind of a bummer.

Almost, but that time his hands came off his handlebars so I can see it being accidental. This time it was a full on intentional t-bone.

Not that the AMA enforces the rules, but what does the rulebook say about this? Is there an "intentional takeout" rule?
