Another story you’d think would bet covered by announcers covering the race.

There was a great battle going with barcia but we don’t get to see it because Sexton was riding around by himself and that was more important 🤦‍♂️

Couple back and forth tangles with Barcia, so who knows.

It's so frustrating they don't even acknowledge it.

True, but he's bowed out because of altitude before.

Did he get pissed off to the point of pulling off? I feel like if he wrecked or bambam bungled him, they would have shown it for the added drama.

Pretty sure he lives and trains in Florida and California.

Also saw a black flag comment on twitter. Hope we'll get some video footage at least the next couple days. :D

I believe he is probation with AMA? He definitely isn’t a fan of them.

Was nice to see someone give it back to him. Ferrandis made a pretty hard pass on him as well. He had been on the other side of these all year

Doesn't say much, but he had altitude sickness last week.

In the main, Anderson had an eighth-place start and he began working his way forward in the early laps. Another rider came together with him on lap seven, dropping him back to 10th and from there he ran into an issue that would hinder the rest of his race.

So it was armpump, altitude sickness, another bend shifter or black flag?
If they didnt want to tell must have been altitude sickness.

Anderson was absolutely gassed at the end of the heat race. He was going backwards before he rode off. I too was wanting to know if it was a bar banging issue, but sounds like he just rode off. Likely a combination of fitness and altitude.

The jump from him and Barcia on TV to Sexton, the announcers not talking about it, and shortly there after he is listed as being out all lead me to believe that he got black flagged and the AMA didn't want that to be known. Aggressive riding for sure, but nothing dirty, that I saw. Not like he Marchbanked him.

During his interview after winning the heat, he was totally out of breath. I knew there was no way he could compete in the main. Just don't understand how you can be out of shape so quickly!

I guess you've never participated in a high intensity sport at altitude.

He's struggled with altitude sickness, and he was battling for the lead that entire heat.
