No it wasnt that was totally fine... for the win and id feel the same if the situation was reversed
You say it’s totally fine but what if Eli’s hand gets stuck in his swing arm or sprocket? That shit was dirty!

Look, I am not gonna go so far as to call it "Dirty" but it surely wasn't a clean straight up pass like Tomac administered 45 earlier. That's what ya gotta do when you don't have the same level of talent. French will be French.

You guys are steady trippin he hit his fron wheel turning he didnt go straight at him... Eli whiskeyed after that and there have been a bazillion passes far worse than that throughout the history of the sport that were given a pass

Will you guys please tell me NOW what your thoughts are when ELI ran Dungey off the track and hit him fully on purpose last year in Vegas? That was WAY dirtier and for the win also right?
You talking about Osbourne Savatgy? Eli didn't really do anything dirty in Vegas last year.

That can happen at any time you crash.

Winning a championship and winning a main event are vastly different...

I feel like "for the win" gets used too much. There has to be a limit. Luckily that didn't destroy Eli's knee or something. Jumping across the lane to the point that you are facing head on seems pretty stupid to me.

Didn't remotely try to make the turn. Coward move.

Torpedoed him big-time. Eli had a chance to take him out earlier but chose not to take him out and keep in second and make a clean pass later.
Marv just used his pass up and he won't win again this year. Eli will make double sure of that.
I like hard racing but that was too much as Marv trajectory was completely wrong

Look, if you prefer the guy who gets hit, it’s dirty. If it’s your guy doing the hitting, it’s racing.

Boo Fing Hoo crybabies. It's a freaking race, 2nd place is the 1st loser. Not everybody gets a participation trophy.

Doesn’t sound like it. Either that or he’s a huge Marvin Fanboy.

Idc if that was Tomac, Anderson or Peick that was taken out, it was dirty no matter who was on the receiving end of that take out. Ya I’m an Eli fan, but that’s doesn’t change how dirty that was.

I'm ok with it as long as he doesn't cry like a whiney bitch (which is typical of Marvin) when ET pays it back. Et could have cleaned him out several times but rode clean the whole time. I don't expect to see et be as nice next time in that scenario.

Right before Marv made one of the dirtiest moves i have ever seen, i was thinking if France dont want him he would be great for the De Nations race. He is just lucky nobody got hurt. could you imagine if Bowers was leading and Marv had done that to him. Papa Bear ain't no joke, on or off. I cant wish any ill will on anyone, so i hope Marv get stuck with back taxes for a couple years.

It wasn't "clean", but it wasn't a horrifically dirty take out and if you think that, then you're kind of a pussy.. I have to say that if I were in Marvin's position, and I had to make that pass to make $100,000 like he is, I wouldn't hesitate to be a little rough. And for the record, I'm not usually in favor of overly aggressive riding. So this definitely wasn't that bad of an incident in my eyes

Having a hard time being okay with it but it is racing. Maybe an attempt to turn would make it better not pointing it off the jump into the corner straight at Eli but racing is racing and thats a lot of money.

Tomac is a vagina. He isn't going to stuff anyone.

Dude you’re delusional. How did I know that the people saying it’s fine were gonna be the same people that have been crying the past year over dungey at vegas 2017?

Feel like Jimmy Button said it right "Chicken shit move. When you’re going the wrong direction it’s not going “inside "

Let's also be really clear about the context of the situation, because that is very important. If this same pass were done in the middle of the race for 5 place, it would be considered more dirty than it is in the context. Last lap, for the win (and $100,000). Come on!

Seriously so many vaginas in here.

Not saying it was a clean move but it’s not like Tomac didn’t leave the door open on a last lap battle for a win. MM had a shot and he took it. It’s nice seeing guys actually going for it and leaving it out there. I’m a huge dungey fan but it’s nice seeing riders not take the conservative white bread approach to racing week in-week out. I thought Tomacs strategy at Vegas last year was genius.

Tomac only went down because his grip got stuck on marvs bike and led to a whiskey throttle. I’d be pissed too if I was Tomac but holy crap let’s not act like a race win isn’t a huge deal.
