RJ is nothing but a 250 lifer that ain't going to amount to jack squat.

No team tactics. Just RJ being RJ and making yet again another bone head move. What’s wild is he was absolutely RIPPING and probably would have won the title if he could chill tf out for one second 

RJ had a great chance of winning that thing BUT typical RJ and his effing dive bomb moves.

I'm so bummed for Seth and Mitch. Seth earned his shot and deserved this Championship only to have a douche move by RJ rob him.

Did someone really say that? 

Absolutely disgusting and that should warrant an immediate ban from Vital.

If you’re betting on a sport, you should know how different situations are handled by the participants and place your wager accordingly.

Beaumer got in front of hammaker early because hammaker screwed up a rhythm all by himself. 

Hammaker put the same pass on vialle that beaumer put on hammaker, RC said as much in real time. If these guys aren't allowed to race for podium positions then why even have them on the track? 

Hammaker didn't pass beaumer until there was 3:17 left and Hampshire was only a second or two behind him at that point. Hammaker had plenty of time to get by beaumer and gap the guys he needed to beat and he did not do that. RJ was 100% going to try to put him on the ground if he had the chance so hammaker had to see that coming. 

I feel bad for the guy and he handled it like a pro but he was not robbed. 

I do not understand how refusing to pass a teammate is considered honorable and staying out of the championship fight when it's clearly and blatantly impacting the championship, but racing for a podium position and taking a guy's line is unacceptable.

I heard all week last week how SX is a contact sport, so I don’t think anyone should have a problem with that race.

So people are fine with J Coop rolling around playing second fiddle to Webb the last couple of races and with his riding more or less gifting Webb with the title. But are outraged that Juju raced for his position on track doing nothing dirty. This is a really special place…

Guys, the RJ pass was dumb and cost them both.....but Julian's pass back on Seth was 100% fine.  This is a 250 shootout and it was for position. It was not dirty, he didn't t-bone him.  It was aggressive, but they are paid to race and he had zero reason to not fight for 2nd.  

 

100% agree

I think the right question is, who's the Einstein that thought of making the final round of a championship a combined shootout where several riders of equal skill and speed are thrown into the mix with no stake in the game?

I feel it’s a great way to end the season and the only way to make it better would be to have the 250s one class all season long.

Agree about RJ, but would have loved to see them go at it. I honestly think RJ had the speed to get him cleanly. Just a mind bafflingly bad move from RJ. 

The story of RJ: Good spot in heat in 2nd, throws it away and heads to LCQ- forfeiting a decent gate pick.

Somehow still finds himself in a position to win title with 3-4 laps left as he gets to Hammakers rear wheel but instantly puts them both on the ground ffs ! It’s mind boggling how he keeps doing this.

JuJu stuffing Hammaker was the contributing factor. The second time Hammaker had to pass him slowed them up a lot and allowed RJ to get past JuJu and get on Seth’s rear wheel.

If Seth gets through on the first attempt he gets the gap and probably gets away for the last few laps to ride it in.

Has there been a more undeserving champion than Vialle? Outside of that 1 win it’s been an average season but in the end there is no disputing the points total.

That was a stupid dive bomb move by RJ. No way he was going to make that corner at that speed. Too bad for Seth.

Wonder if KTM decides to make a statement on Jujus riding. Letting someone by to take a shot at them and then celebrating (on IG) like he contributed to the championship (he did) is not a great look for the KTM boyz.

RJ’s move was just flat out dumb. Absolutely no other way to put it. 

Juju’s move was flat out unnecessary. Absolutely no reason he needed to insert himself into that situation. 

One thing I will say, we’re getting to the point where I personally think these guys feel the NEED to make those moves. I’m not saying it’s right, but in the 250 class specifically, there seems to be a growing feeling of desperation among the riders.

So was it team tactics or like juju said seth cut him off on the start and he was paying him back racing for position? I'll say I'm not a fan of riding like that especially in a championship you're not in. I hope seth can bring this momentum into outdoors.

I’m good with RJ doing what he did. Last round, for the title. Juju, however, is another story. Say what you want, but it’s definitely a “team sport” when it matters most.

lol, there was only one guy with one more win than him. No one from this coast is going on to dominate the 450s, why he’s getting 💩 on so bad for winning this championship is crazy.

Why was Hampshire not fined like Deegan for aggressive riding? Move was way worse then Deegs.

Im still pissed off over how things played out. I really didn't think Tom would make it happen, but he showed up when it mattered most. Seth seems like such a good guy, and it sucks that we were robbed of a good race because of a bone head move by gramps. 

Also, if no one knew this, according to JuJu himself, he is "the fastest 250 rider on paper,"  Whatever that means.

I like RJ, but man… that was a last-lap move with three laps to go. He was catching Seth, he should have waited and attempted that pass with a closer gap. Rookie move by a 250 vet, hate to see it.

Great ride by Seth.

Fastest rider on paper after getting rundown by hammaker. What a tool. Someone said Juju was a spoiled rich kid. Definitely sounds like one.

JuJu is rapidly proving himself to be an arrogant prick. Unfortunately for him, whereas Deegan can walk the walk, JuJu can’t. Other than flashes of speed, I haven’t seen anything earth-shattering from JuJu.

Here is the question? how did Hammaker get back arpund RJ after RJ got up first and went over the finish line jump before seth. Seems like the take out move was legit and cpuld have landed the championship but maybe RJ crashed again?

I called the RJ brain fart 5 minutes before it happened.  I said only way Vialle wins is if Hampshire takes both himself and Seth out battling for the title.... RJ just does some dumb shit, no patience just sent it in for no reason and cost himself and Seth.   What JuJu did was total BS.  Tried to take out Seth's front wheel...  Karma is a bitch and Deegs lives in his head rent free.... Fastest 250 rider on paper my ass.

Didn’t JuJu just get dog walked by Deegs? 12 second lead? Delusional
