I think you all are missing the point. Watching Barcia ride reminds me of watching Bob Hannah. He is exiting and it is refreshing to see real racing again. Block passes are MX. The "rumer" would make sense to me as I thought he was either having bike problems or was under team orders not to pass Metcalf. I have watched Justin ride since he was on 80's and he has always been an exiting rider to watch. Honda would be making a big mistake in not letting him ride the way he always has. I think if allowed you will see him win some SX's this year. I did not see him hit Sipes as someone stated earlier but i did see Sipes try very hard to take him out at the Indy finish.

Barcia is fast as lightning and he is a really good guy as well.

I think the intended meaning is more along the line of "he doesn't know what he is doing". Listening to an audio would be easier since you could tell if the tone is dismissive.
He said it the way it was translated earlier "he's all over the place".

I thought the SX rookie Barcia ran a great race. Passing Metcalfe and Sipes for a 5th place finish is no easy cakewalk. He rode a smart race that still gives him an outside shot at the SX Championship.

I know he’s an exciting rider to watch but the reality is that he couldn’t continue that same riding style that he started the season with.

#1. The AMA would have to put their foot down sooner or later and other riders were starting to complain.

#2. It was only going to be so long before someone either kicked his ass or put him in the cheap seats. He was bumping and cutting everyone off and it doesn’t have to be a rider of his caliber to accomplish either of the above.

I know some of you think that his rough and rowdy style is exciting but the reality is that if you want to win races, you have to be at war with the track, and not everybody that’s on that track. The kid has a ton of talent and if he shows some patience and settles down a little bit he will win some races, and possibly a championship in a year or two.

this post really shows what i think is the biggest barcia problem this year......either this fan is completly desperate......or is a fan at all.........
barcia cant let this get to is head, his fans ask of him what he cant do yet, so he rides desperate........
in 09 it was stroupe in that position and it didnt work for him, now he's more experienced and is sticking to his game plan, a bit off the main radar, and is a consistent 2º and the one who can gain on a possible pourcel error........
hope barcia gets it fast and keeps himself healthy for the outdoors

Yep everybody has a bad day but, 5th at Daytona isn't one of them. That's a damn good day in my book. Not a perfect day and leaves room for improvement but not bad at all.

I know shit, but kid seems very talented, but maybe he needs to adjust this killing the track, competitors and valves attitude some? After watching CP effortless ride, almost short shifting while passing JB made me wonder if this Barcia kid is on right track? I mean he can't rev any further can he?

Or?

What happend to the aggressive style of barcia we saw in Atlanta? When we watched that race we were psyched. It felt like real racing was back. The kid is fast and fearless and we love it!!!! Barcia didn't seem himself in Daytona. Then I heard a rumor that Barcia was told not to be so "aggressive". I hope this isn't true but it does seem coincidental. What ever happend to the term "bangin' bars"?
Heard the same.

No body is bagging on Barcia!!! My point is that , I'm afraid people are trying to suddenly change his style of riding. Geico powersports Honda farmed out of the amateur ranks for a reason. His riding style being one of them!!!
