Another coincidental inconvenience that benefits the red boys. Is it a conspiracy 🧐

Haha, I have a feeling the rule was made before they knew about this. It does suck that Chase lost that 2nd position though.

Shame, that was one of the sickest Washougal passes ever, and Chase is back in 3rd 😭

Reverting back to pervious lap when you have segments and scoring loops at multiple locations is retarded

Chase gets hosed on this deal…. Should be live timing when the red comes out, not where they last crossed the finish line.

btw, is Freddie Noren not racing any longer or hurt and out? I haven't seen him at the last few races?

7/19/2025 2:41pm

Do we know who is down? Henry Miller was 3 laps down on the leaderboard, was it him?

Is there really going to be no explanation of what caused the red flag?

Similar to High Point. AP beat JCoop. Even though JCoop passed him AP was ahead on the last completed full lap

I think Prado just straight up underestimated these guys.

They need to revise that rule. It’s clearly not the right result.

So a 55-60 year old man is going to run across the front of the gate and the next rider can’t go until he passes them?  Did I hear that right?

What could go wrong with that???

For real. Jett always has a horse shoe up his ass and these things always seem to work out for him. Cmon Chase, just need a 2nd

Yeah they have transponders, just look at the running order at the time the red flag was thrown. Better than a full gate drop but if they literally just changed the rule, why not update it with the times.

We all just got robbed.   And no info on why the race was red flagged? Seems hes ok? Off the track already? Seems fishy as fuck

The SX staggered restart seems better than this. Atleast based on how they explained it.

Him and his team parted ways.  And afterwards apparently a few of his bikes got stolen. Which is really sad.

I don’t think so. But to be fair that was back in 08 and you could probably get knocked out in moto 1 and be good to line up for moto 2 😂😂
