I’m trying to figure out how Justin Cooper couldn’t convert two second places into a podium

Yeah man I'd say the mechanic was kinda the dummy out of it all. Write "got overall, stay up" and be done with it.

Sexton waiting to speak on the podium, can’t take that fine again. 

It's $1K. That's nothing to him. I'd walk the fuck off

Pit board should have said 2nd=1st.

These guys are playing into Webb’s game. All power to him.

Also how many times has Sexton stalled that KTM. They need to address that.

Chase stalled the Honda a lot too.

I like Roczen more and more every year. I was at Indy when he won on the Zook a few years ago. The knock on Roczen used to be that he blamed everyone but himself.. not tonight. Gonna be a sad day when he hangs it up.

It’s weird watching someone who looks that comfortable and in control, but knowing they are going to wreck. 

IMO he would probably have more control on a bigger bike, the Honda's and especially KTM's are very small bikes for someone as lanky as Chase

Man, that is a guy punishing himself. 

Honestly he kind of needs to. I've defended him as much as anyone, but all of it tonight is 100% on him and just too much.  If he had only made 2 or 3 big mental mistakes tonight he'd be leaving with points lead.

If Roger ever considered starting drinking, tonight would be the night to do it.

I was so disgusted I shut the race off. Did he not know he didn't need to win?

The math was not complicated. There is zero chance that sexton didn't know he had the overall by finishing second to webb.

Yep even if Sexton was going for the win, but knew he didn’t need it for the overall, that’s exactly when the team needs to step in and say settle and take the overall. Otherwise what’s the point of headsets and pit boards?

Didn't they say on the broadcast a lap or so before the final crash that mechanic had put CALM on the board? Only so much you can say to the guy, they all knew the scenario.....

Exactly. Why are people blaming Jade? He never said “Pass 2” or anything. Chase knew he had the overall staying in second but he can’t help himself

Mechanic put Calm after Sexton stalled the bike. Then when he started charging back after Webb the pit board said YES 2 laps. I’d take that as keep charging, you got 2 laps to get it done.

IMO, it didn't matter what they put on the pit board. He was in the zone and most likely didn't even glance at it.

I took it to mean yes you have the overall. Who knows but again the math and specific scenario was simple.

It shouldn't matter what's on the pit board

Chase should know that he was 2 points ahead of Webb going into Main 3. So if he finishes right behind Webb he wins. The math isn't hard
