A 19 year old wildchild and a 10 times worldchampion as teammanager, who should be the wisest? Big mistake by Everts which costed him his job. Every teammanager forbids his riders to participate in such events during the season. Let alone if your teenage rider is leading the world championship.

Agreed.

But regarding the "USA or not"-thing, I'm just saying what a lot of fanboys refuse to or can't see. His duty lies within the GP-scene, nothing else. He calls these issues upon himself. The last injury-free season he had was 2012, so about that "wildchild", it seems he doesn't quite learn from the past.

I’m a herlings fanboy and I wish he would have been able to come here and race. However I do understand why they’re not allowing him to. I’ll still watch all races and attend High Point and Unadilla like I planned.

I guess I don’t understand why so many guys are whining and threatening to boycott or whatever. I guess people are jus whiners and spoiled?
