LOL Cooper says "I didn't think he could race after the red flag, it really distracted me. Shows how much I want this"

Umm...no. Ram it showed how much HE wants this. Just shut up and let your team protest for you.

There is no " red flag rule"!

4.25 Restarts
a. The race is stopped (with fewer than 3 laps completed by the
race leader / whether it be a Heat, Last Chance Qualifier,
Triple Crown Race or Main Event).
1. A red flag will be displayed to the riders.
2. The riders will return to their original starting gate and a
restart will take place as soon as possible.
3. The riders will keep their initial starting order.
4. The riders will be restarted from the starting gate.
5. Riders who were present at the starting gate for the original
start of the race but were unable to start and who did not join
the race before the red flag was displayed are not
authorized to take the restart.
6. The race will be run for the original number of laps.
7. In the case of a Final, if it is found impossible to restart then
this Final will be declared cancelled and not count for the
Championship.
Apparently the "red flag rule" only applies if there are more than 3 laps completed? Not sure how that makes sense.

b. The race is stopped (with 3 laps completed by the leader and
less than 90% of the total distance completed by the race
leader, rounded down to the nearest whole number of laps /
whether it be a Heat, Last Chance Qualifier, Triple Crown
Race or Main Event).
1. A red flag will be displayed to the riders.
2. The riders will return to the starting area directly in front of
their original starting gate and a restart will take place as
soon as possible.
a. A minimum of 10 minutes from the time that the red flag is
displayed will be given to make repairs or adjustments.
b. The race may be re-started before the minimum 10-
minute waiting time only if all riders indicate to the Race
Director that they are ready to start.
c. Repairs or adjustments may only be made in the starting
area.
3. The lap in which the red flag was thrown will not be
considered a complete lap.
4. The starting order will be determined by each rider’s race
position at the end of the lap preceding the last lap
completed by the leader. I.E. if the leader has completed the
third lap and is working the fourth lap, the starting order
would be set with the order from the completion of the
second lap.
5. Race position is defined as the riders scoring position, not
position on the track.
6. Riders will be restarted from a staggered standing start in
the starting area.
a. Riders will be lined up in a staggered formation beginning
on the starting straight at a start line located by the first
turn, starting with the rider that was in the first position
and continuing back towards the starting area.
b. Riders not ready to take their position in line will be placed
last.
c. Once all riders are in position, a 30-second board will be
held upright for 30 seconds. Once the 30-second board is
turned sideways, the starter will then display a green flag
to signal the start.
d. Riders may not overtake the rider in front of them until
they pass the designated starting line.
e. Any rider that does overtake the rider in front of them
before the starting line will have been deemed to have
jumped the start and will be penalized points and purse
equal to two positions in the final results for that race plus
two additional points.
f. Eligible riders who are unable to participate in the restart
due to a stalled motorcycle or continued repairs may join
the race from the starting area at any time during the
race.
37
g. Riders who were no longer actively participating in race at
the time when the red flag was displayed are not
authorized to take part in the restart.

h. Penalties incurred prior to the red flag will be assessed at
the completion of the race, not during the restart.
7. The race will be run for the remaining number of laps or
time.
8. In the case of a Main Event, full championship points will be
awarded.

Damn he can barely walk on the podium now, unreal he rode to a podium!
4/13/2021 6:35pm
I swear to god if they skip podium interview I’m gonna quit defending this production team.
I think the production has been fantastic tonight. Races have been good so that helps but overall it’s been a good time. Too bad they fumbled the bag so badly for a national broadcast.

Seriously...thank your sponsors and get off. Don't call him out, dude just rode a ride that will literally be historical...let him have his moment and accept your win.

That being said, I'd low key behind the doors tell my team to "get 'im". Can't just restart the race because you wrecked.

Why because it was missing a front number plate?

Mcadoo is such a likable guy. Holy crap that was impressive.

Justin sounded like a whiner with that distracted talked. I mean come on, the other guy literally got face to face with the dirt at high speed.

Yes.
I'm not saying they should do anything about it, but there is an entire section of the rulebook detailing number plate requirements.

I’d guess they are talking about riders that had maybe pulled off or never actually left the gate.

And cooper can go fly a fucking kite.....dudes probably not excited to have his title rival who should have died ride back up to the podium like the fucking terminator

Didn’t know j cooper was so fragile. We all know he really wasn’t distracted about macadoo lining up again. He was distracted by Macadoo’s MASSIVE balls and was wondering when his own will drop.
