If Coop still feels that way after watching replays, more power too him, but there was nothing Bowers could do.

He clipped the on/off landing, back tyre bucked, he was locked up and Coop pivoted...
Until I wathced that slow mo, I was in disagreement, but your right. With that said, those guys should be worried, Coop is on average 1 sec a lap faster than everryone out there right now and given one more lap, would have easily won that race.

Did Gallagher hear it?

If a tree falls in the woods....

What about if it's on TV and not in front of his eyes... but he catches it on replay, at least 48 seconds later?

Didn't look good from Bowers. Whatever his intentions or thoughts, it looked like a takeout. Especially considering his past moves and attitude about it.

I'm not a big fan of Bowers, but I also don't think that hit wasn't malicious. Webb came almost to a stop & turned in...and Tyler was committed.

Webb was by far the fastest rider on the track last night. I don't think Bowers has anything for him.

I mean't the threat from Coop is on record as a "future" takeout.

Ya I know... I said it was on the telly haha...

Just being silly, but kind of not, surely Gallagher watches the shows right? What does that mean? Does he read interviews? Seely said Barcia has one coming. What about Twitter? Hanny tweeted he punted McElrath on purpose...

He also didn't put up a single fight when Webb passed him again...that's about the best apology you can do with helmets on and engines screaming.
Agree with the above. Webb turned down and Bowers couldn't stop. Boom. Let him by later. I even saw Bowers looking backwards before Webb had totally caught him in order to, I think, stay out of the way. (or to avoid being cleaned out himself).

They need to sit these two down in a room and watch the replay together!!!!

I like both Coop and Bowers and hate to see these two end a good off track relationship for what was clearly NOT INTENTIONAL by bowers.
It look like TB just wanted to follow CW through that corner and was caught off guard by CW pitching sideways and turning down last second.
Bowers only fault was only that he got all excited and pissy and sounds like he'll clean out Web over his podium interview.

If I was Web......I would have went to Bowers deescalated the situation the second after I seen the footage.

Bowers is still right there in points and if theres anyone on the track I dont want to play a game of demolition derby with it be Bowers!!!

Bowers won't survive racing like this if he want to win the title, even if this move was not intentional. His online gangster attitude doesn't help either. He will not only make Webb his enemy but many more(Osbourne already?) It will come back and hit him

Was it just me or did everyone besides Webb look like a novice out there? I was watching him on the leader board hoping they would show more of him riding because he was gaining fast.

At first I thought Bowers was pretty lame for just pulling over for him after he had slammed him in the corner but maybe that was his way of apologizing for the take out move.

Bowers had no choice in the hit, Webb turned way to fast and tight. Webb is a class act on the bike but the bump was not bowers fault.

Look at the video again......Where exactly was bowers supposed to go? He came in at full tilt and Webb turned down on him. His options went away fast in that situation. This kind of racing is what keeps me giving a shit about this series, I hope they don't try to squash it, buy holding the racers back. Don't want to get hit,,,,,,,,then don't hit anyone....let them self police, (within reason) .

Bowers came in wayyy too fast. Webb did come to an abrubt stop and turn inside but that's understandable as there were 2 guys ahead of him going inside. Bowers needs to be more patient and have a little respect. You can't just bulldoze your way through people, and even though it's an accident, not expect them to be pissed.

Where was he suppose to go? That's the whole point. Use your fuckin brakes when you see 3 guys ahead of you all trying to make 1 turn! Like can Bowers not see it's going to get crowded in there with 3 guys all squaring up ? Doesnt logic say hmmm maybe I shouldnt come in this turn going mach 10. The guy is wreckless.

Doesn't matter, Webb caught and passed him from way back Twice in that main event. The bear can only hope webb keeps getting bad starts if he hopes to be near him for an opportunity to take him out again

Bowers admitted he wasn't looking far enough ahead (he said he was looking 5 ft in front of him), thus the mistake of running it in hard when Webb turned down hard. Racing incident. Both of these guys needs STFU and race (cleanly going forward).

Webb was already going inside to block the guy in front of him. Bowers for sure was diving even farther inside for a block pass on them both. I doubt he meant to hit him like that but even if Webb didn't cut down he was going to get taken out. I agree with what was said above, I have no idea how anyone can be a fan of Bowers. He can run his mouth all he wants on Twitter but i doubt any of these guys are scared of him. Big or not this isn't fighting its racing.

I almost want to thank Bowers for makign the race exciting. If Webb had stayed up, I'm afraid he would have lapped everyone tow or three times.

Webb's bike is handling incredible, he's doing things nobody else in the class can. Bower's couldn't have anticipated he would turn on a dime & come down like that. Guy had the back locked up & his weight so far forward he couldn't hit the front brake any harder. I'm sure after calming down & watching a few times, both will be good with it - racing incident.

Yup. Webb is flying, and I thank him for getting bad starts or the 250 class would be ZZzzzzzz......

Bowers has the same brake system as Canard. No air brakes.

Coop totally smoked his ass clean catching up, and Bowers gonna run his mouth cuz Coop's pissed at contact?

Bowers is an social web bully, the best paybacks are the podium.

Shut your mouth and race Bowers. You got beat straight up tonight by someone you punted, intentionally or not.

i like bowers but i don't like his Arenacross mouth.

(Ok, maybe he was kidding, wtf do i know? hahaha)

how can any sane person say he likes bowers ?

first he is very dirty like he just showed the world again

and second he is a liar, just listen to his pulp mx interview

and third he is not a gentleman for not owing up to his dirty riding by admitting it.

i ask you, what is really lift to like about such a little child ?
What reed did last week was way dirtier than this. What do you do when another bike pivots on a dime in front of you?

If Weston had done that to Dungey fighting for the podium 2 weeks ago he'd be made into a Vital hero.

Exactly how I see it.

I think they are buds and having fun drawing attention to themselves via social media. Nothing wrong with that! If it's true or not...great racing ahead!
X3. When Cooper caught back up to Bowers, Bowers threw out the boat anchor and let Cooper by like a friend. I guarantee you after the race Bowers said he meant to go in hard, but didn't expect Cooper to get that tangled and drill him like a nail like that. Bowers let him back by out of respect for his friend. I bet they will be a bit gritty but back to buddies this week and are having fun with social media.

How I see it anyway.
