Dungey's fault but unintentional. Bit lame to blame it on Stewart though.

Stewart has done a similar thing plenty of times in the past so a bit of karma IMO.

First thing I noticed is how easily he's knocked unconscious these days. I'd be checking that out with my doctor if I was him. Definitely no boxing career after MX, he reminds me of a faded Roy Jones getting knocked out so easy. Hope he's OK for next week though, he wasn't to blame this time and looked in good form and riding sensibly.

I believe he'll be back next week also.. Think positive. Damn Stewart was looking excellent. Looking like that race was his..

Dungey was going the wrong way on the track, total BS and Emig is a punk for kissing Dungey's ass, he said "that indecent with Stewart." Stewart had zero fault, 100% Dungey. Heck Vince F wasn't going the wrong way on the track. So damn disappointed. Bullshit Dungey you were going the wrong way on the track, just heard your excuse, holy crap. Zero respect for you, I will make the best voodoo doll ever and make you sit on a cactus.

All those guys pushing hard first race something is bound to happen, bummed that James is hurt but Dungey clipped that jump and couldn't catch the brake.
Not his fault and not James just racing.

Well, that makes it Dungey's fault. I know he didn't intentionally take Stewart out, but an experienced rider like Dungey should know when to not dive inside for no reason like it he did. He had absolutely zero chance to pass anyone. He went to the inside and literally just got in the way for no reason. Now Stewart has to pay.

Damn the ignorance. Is this the first race some of you have watched? Dungey clipped the jump ran in to deep and James happen to cut down at the same time... It's called racing, shit happens....

If you just can't help but to point a finger of blame at something, maybe try pointing your finger at the hump at the entrance of that corner. Bubba went much wider on the entry of that turn than he normally would have in order to clear the hump, which allowed him to cut down and exit the corner on the extreme inside. Dungey, on the other hand, tried the inside entry line and didn't quite clear that hump, which sent first his front, and then his rear, tire into the air, at the exact moment he would normally be braking. Had that hump not been so close to the entry of that corner, the crash would never have happened. The riders don't design the tracks, they just ride them as best they can. That hump was poorly placed, that's all. It could just as easily have been Bubba crashing into Dungey if their positions had been switched. So simple.

That's racing... To be angry at Dungey or Stewart because of this would be absolutely idiotic. No malicious intent involved in the situation at any point. Crappy things happen and two of the fastest people on the planet happened to be involved in it this time. Hope Bubba gets the green light to race again soon! He looked great out there.

Yeah...maybe jumping the gun there a bit.. guess what I meant was it looked like that race could have been his. I'll say this...if he continued that race the way he was racing before he went down, he'd probably would have won.. he was moving to the front nicely.

We have to give Dungey some credit based on his past history of being clean and in control, so this will go down as a racing incident. There is no way anyone can place any fault on JS7 for that crash, Dungey was being way too aggressive for A1, first laps in that crowd of fast, nervous riders that werent really riding very smooth. He punted JS7 into a Dirtnap and there was no way he was going to make that corner without using the Zuke as a berm. I am pretty sure JS7 was going to pass Anderson. I dont know whether James could have held off Anderson till the end, but I really would have loved to have seen it.

I am concerned how James never gets up after going down anymore, the fall at MEC was really nothing, and the overseas fall was the same. I hope they let him race next week if he is willing.

Peick deserved his 2 week DQ, as much fun as it was to watch. He should have at least tried to pick up his bike in between punching Frieses hat (stupid anyways). He should have just shoved Friese to the ground one time really hard, and stood on his bike or him while attempting to get his bike up and started. I wonder what the end result will be when JGR and Fly sit down and analyze if this is who they want representing them.
Canard was fast as hell, Roczen had a rough night but raced strong.

Reed, looked really good all night and I was super happy and very impressed with his results. I hope he just goes up from here.

The only plus here is that it happened at A1 and not halfway into a season of building championship points for Stewart. If he can safely (for him & others as well) come back in a week or two, he can get back in the game. He was looking good out there until...

Not a good start for Stew. He hit the ground like a lawn dart. I cant pin blame on Dungey, he cased the jump and didn't have the wheels on the ground to check up. Clipped that rear wheel and that was a wrap... Overall it was a great A1!

There is absolutely no rush for james to get back. Take your time, see every specialist you can and measure yourself appropriately, head injuries have to be taken seriously in any sport. in life in general. it's bad that suzuki doesn't have a back up rider to represent their team and sponsors on track but the repercussions, lifelong repercussions of these things just do not compare to the gains of what is basically on track advertising.

he's already taken a critical blow to a championship run so just play it smart. if it takes a month, take a month, if it takes several, take several. the weight of concussions and their unseen effects long term are just now coming to the front of consciousness in the sporting world. they're absolutely no joke and we the fans, teams, sponsors and everyone involved need to stop pressuring the athletes to return too soon for the wrong reasons.

Stewarts seasons keep getting shorter and shorter all the time. Yes he will race again this season, but he won't be a contender. Also, as someone else mentioned, the ease at which he got knocked out and most likely got concussion again should be concerning to him, his team and his family. He's had too many of those over the course of his career.

You said it was definitely his fault and I said it wasn't......that's not remotely the same thing.
IT WAS HIS FAULT! Fuck, you whiney bunch of so called "moto fans". It was somebodies fault and it sure as fuck wasn't Stewart's. Get over it.

For those of you that don't think it was a racing incident take a look at the pic and see where Stewart is headed....where there is not one tire track at all....when you have Dungey clip the jump and get thrown to the right and combine that with Stewart cutting down sharper than anyone else had by 3-4ft you have a set of circumstances that become a racing incident....nobody's fault....people need to take their rose colored glasses off and get real!

Lots of finger pointing on fault in this thread. Does it really matter? I'm surprised that after 5 pages not one person mentioned that James was entirely focused on staying with and setting up a pass on Anderson. James performed one of the most common moves in SX and one he's been very good at. Cut down under your opponent and take the shorter line out of the corner. A couple more of those and scrub off a triple or a whoops blitz could have been a classic JS7 pass for the lead. Dungey came in fast, fast enough that it looked like James had no clue Dungey was that close. If Dungey was that close a corner or two before, James may not have turned down on Anderson. If you race, you know what it feels like to be focused on passing the guy in front of you. All else is irrelevant.

I do feel bad for James. I wouldn't throw out the idea that retirement may come sooner than he wanted. Hopefully not though. I love seeing him line up and race.

I wish this post had of ended this argument.

It was simply the culmination of two scenarios happening together at the same time, would've went different for Stew if Dunge wasn't there and vice versa but that's just not the way the cookie crumbled. I'd rather see more speculation and reasons as to how long it'll take Stewart to come back if at all and what other potential injuries he could've sustained judging by the crash, much more concerning to me and I'm sure others than this pointless bickering.

Post a reply to: Stew out.
