Have to think sinces it's a mudder the championship is pretty wide open, I don't think any points lead is safe in conditions like this.

Wow

so Sipes Lopes Alix Decotis Cantrell Mellross all DNQ

They should let 250A ride first in these conditions.... There are riders qualifying that will probably be lapped 3-5 times but riders like Sipes and Cantrell are out just because their practice track was slower.
That's bullshit

Yep. Mitchell Falk missing the cut too. Pretty goofy situation with the whole top 10 in qualifying being B session riders because they had a clean(er), faster track

Or if conditions like this happen, lock in the top 25 in points and fill the rest of the spots that way. Or something similar

I’m sorry..... if that 250 Moto 1 list is accurate this is total bullshit.

30ish guys from B practice made it in and the 10 A guys got a help from the seeded evocation. What a terrible thing to do to the factory riders that have been running the whole circuit at the last race.

Idk what can be done in situations like this... because if 250 A went first, no B guy would touch top 40. Maybe look at the average # of A guys that make the mains and the # of B guys... and seed that. Would there be a breakdown anywhere of what practice group each top 40 guy came from for every race this season?

Glad to see him out there!
