Docked 3 positions for missing about 15 yards of track. That’s funny🤣

He should be. He didn't gain three positions by cutting the track, but the punishment needs to be worse since it's a deterrent. Plus, he was clearly watching Cooper and basing his position off that, rather than just riding his race.

I know they’re in the heat of the moment but did he really think that he wasn’t going to be docked any positions for not re-entering the track at the whoops? All the PC riders should know if they go off the track to re-enter where they went off or Star will protest it lol

This situation is giving me Vegas 17 vibes.

Does Hunter show up at the next round in a red bull helmet like Jett? Sure earned it! No doubt his agent is on the horn looking for a check...

Makes sense, he jumped on right next to Cooper and another rider after the whoops after crashing halfway through the whoops.
Another rider was also entering the whoops when he cut across.

So technically he would have lost 3 positions if he rentered halfway through the whoops where he should have anyway. Think it’s pretty fair as well as a deterrent.

Yeah, I’m with you on this. The flagger had to jump out of the way to not get run over.

Nobody protested Anderson, all the Star riders protested Mac.

3 positions was out of hand, but they had to look at it.

The squeaky wheel got greased.

Exactly they have to make better decisions that poor decision could have cost him his only shot at a championship.

I was going to ask about this. So it's funny McAdoo got whacked but Ando skipped the whole section of whoops.

Talk about inconsistent.

3 positions for that???? Yet Anderson accelerating and missing the entire whoop section got him docked 1??? How the hell is that justified? Roger pull some strings again for his rider?

AMA is such a joke.

Watch it again. Mcadoo had two whoops missing. Anderson was in the corner before the whoops and he didn't even go down. Instead of just turning left and enter the whoops he jumped a tough block, almost took out a couple of flaggers and cut the entire whoop section plus another turn (2nd gear pinned btw)

Mcadoo cut off a corner and 2/3 of a straight away, Anderson went beside the whoops and accelerated while doing so.
Cutting the track and gaining an advantage and accelerating and not entering at the safest possible place are two separate infractions and are treated differently. Mcadoo did the former and Anderson did the latter. I’m not agreeing or disagreeing with the AMA’s penalties just pointing out that they are two separate infractions.

Unfortunately you are wrong. Yet again, it was RC saying "up the inside" 47,000 times. At least Rutledge Wood wasn't there.

He didn't just skip the whoops....he also skipped the following right hand turn and about 3/4 of the next straight away.

I think if he would have rode down the whoop alley and then got back on the track at the right hand corner he would have been fine and not penalized.

McAdoo cut the track and entered in traffic. All the traffic behind Anderson was on the ground. I think.
