Let me introduce you too 80's-2003 normal supercross, Tyler Evans and Vince Freezer...
You caught my joke.🤣
Eli is a badass for only ever tweeting at Matthes among many things 😂 but hopefully you guys calling for vehicular assault charges can read this and not have to go to your safe spaces.

The only racing that had this many slow down and swerves was Bradshaw and Matiasevich in the early 90's. Freise just rides like an idiot to everyone and Tyler Evans was a punk and a bad look for the sport. Guy would come out rip off his shirt and then not do shit in the race.

WATCH THE CRINGE WORTHY 2025 SUPERMOTOCROSS CHAMPIONSHIP FINALE
Not calling for it. Just pointing it out. Trying to ram someone and leaving 250k on the table is just fucking stupid. I'll bet Brian is pissed.
In itself, the fine isn't big, but without his crash he mich likely wins the overall and ends up 2nd in the championship. His fall cost him almost 250 000$, he did punished himself quite well.🙃
tim should have been fired for that and brian suspended for a year .
The AMA has pretty much always been a joke .Just look at what they did to Briar Bauman this year in the AFT series .That was blatant what they did to him black flagging him for no reason at all they speculated he was leaking oil when not one rider was complaining about it .If they thought there was oil on the track they could have red flagged it but instead took the title from Briar
I want to hear his take on it.
Rumors are rumors but supposedly said behavior (cheating + intimidation) has been a thing for a while, and obviously nothing has been done: https://www.thumpertalk.com/forums/topic/1074759-little-deegan-making-mm-proud/
All motorsports have BS, but the wild thing in American MX/SX is how much of this stuff is totally fine and the perpetrators celebrated. I've heard more than one moto pundit suggest we should totally get rid of privateers (which I don't agree with), "to be more like Formula 1 or MotoGP". You don't have it both ways - you don't get to make $$$ on the back of Barcia, Friese, Deegan or whoever doing WWE on 2 wheels and then posture about being like F1. F1 has more rules than Sunday School just to pass someone.
DeWolfe (however it is spelt) sure got the karma though hahaha.
JT went deep into this part of the convo and literally said that he believes Deegs knew he would get hit with the 5 point penalty so his strategy was to end Jo's race (either via injury or mechanical) so Deegs could win it all even with the penalty. Black flag + suspension is the only solution to this bullshit.
2025 AMA Racing Rulebook Section 4.4.A.3 allows the AMA seven ways to penalize a rider with loss of Championship points being option E. However, 4.4.A.4(b) states "The minimum suspension for a second offense of a similar nature shall be six months". So this is where the AMA has some explaining to do imo because if Deegan was already on probation for a similar offense - contacting another rider - how is the AMA able to willfully bypass its own rules?

I believe you have to look at the AMA rule book that applies to the disipline (Supercross/Motocross), the one you referenced I believe applies to amateur racing. I'm not sure which one they use for SMX I would assume Supercross.
Here's a link to the Supercross rule book:

Pit Row
FIM is the same weakness....just watch the MX2 motos from Australia....de Wolf rode exactly same behavior like the douche Deegan
Let's agree to disagree. Watched mx2 yesterday and everyone knew it was coming. When Kay did it (the pass), it was a great move from inside to outside. Much more of a racing incident then deegs did
I think people are kidding themselves if they don’t think this is possible.
If Jo would have been injured, or worse ( yes, it’s possible ) , do people here think that any release that is signed saves them from criminal charges? If it’s just a racing incident, I would think they would be safe, but with premeditation ( like what this was, especially after several attempts ) Deegan could have been gambling with his freedom.
And while I don’t think Deegan was solely at fault for the Ryder D crash, gross negligence could be argued.
I’m not advocating for this kind of scrutiny at all, but just pointing out that it’s not out of the realm of possibility.
If that happens once, our sport is hosed.
The ama is still looking into this if I heard things right on pulp. I don't think they want him racing mxon.
Every week you hear more and more stories of his bad behavior that isn't shown. I heard he was trying to start a fight in the hotel at breakfast? Ok not on race grounds so thats fine just classless. But he went to the gas gas rig after the first moto and was yelling.
This is not what the sport needs and his fans are brainwashed by the edited and fake videos.
Yelling in the Gas Gas pits… did he blame that on Ryder?
I have no idea. All I know is every week I hear how much of a dick he is. Ryder did spin out so I would say the majority is on him. A little has to fall on deegan because that line he was taking was super high risk with someone in front. Probably why they put the pole there. Then you see the brainwashed fans say they did it to slow deegan down.
and beginning of the 2. moto before the rain started
he passed him and brake checked to get Laengenfelder front tire tucked by de Wolf's rear tire
black flag for me too
The whole event was a complete embarrassment to anyone who witnessed it. Mike Pelletier should be ashamed, between the handling of injured riders and the Deegan fiasco I was expecting a public statement by now…
Beyond weak, AMA is useless.
Has there been anything by anyone from the officiating side? Pelletier, Yogi, JBone…..anyone?
Bro, do you not realize that "this is what the sport needs"? Deegan's fans always seem thrilled by the kid's actions. I do not want the sport to be seen this way AT ALL.
Absolutely amateur hour when it’s almost 4 days later and no PR from AMA Pro Racing about this situation
