This only proves he wasn’t doing anything abnormal moments later.  Thus , proving he wasn’t intentionally cross jumping anyone.   He hit a rut, while trying to turn down right on the face (as all these guys do) and the rut kicked him further left.  It was a mistake, not intentional.

In this example you use he is able to turn right on the next take off and goes straight. 

All of this makes me believe his look back at mcadoo is done so because he knows he messed up and is worried about getting landed on and or colliding.  Not looking back to make sure he got the job done.

Watch the footage of this photo in real time and you will see he actually goes straight even lined up the face like this.  

Two turns later he did the same exact thing, except he hit a rut on the face and it kicked him further left instead of allowing him to straighten out.

His mistake.  But unintentional take out. 

I just feel if he really didn’t try to do it he would’ve made a statement like Webb did, not that hard to say sorry bro, especially when any media would be happy to report him saying it

Interesting that everyone's saying that Deegan should've jumped straight.

In the jump prior to the 180, MacAdoo crosses over from the middle to the outside of the landing.  Should he also have jumped straight?

In the 180, MacAdoo was a long ways back from Deegan.

When entering this rhythm section, MacAdoo caught up quickly, but considering that the riders in front of Deegan to his right were slower than him, his line choice was correct.  MacAdoo should've anticipated where Deegan was going to land, as Deegan was making a pass, and there's no way Deegan would know MacAdoo was there.  He was too far back when entering the turn. 

This one is on MacAdoo.  He should not have tried to pass where there wasn't  room.

I don’t know if some of these people are blind, or have such a deep rooted jealously within themselves from seeing Deegan able to do things on a bike they couldn’t comprehend doing on a video game.


It’s so clear to see. Why would you jump that close to Deegan coming behind him, knowing it’s a left hand inside turn right after? It’s called race IQ. Some people have it some don’t . It’s why some racers, like Sketch here, will never make it out of the 250 class.


He just lacks good decision making skills during the race, and to be honest, that’s why he always gets injured every single season. I’m a PC fan, but please give that spot to someone else who deserves it.

I really like the style and speed of HD.

 

I did not like the guy without his helmet, zero respect for the sport, competitors, organizers and most importanrly his sponsors and fans. 

I'm 75% sure that his power or speed or the fact that no other rider could match his speed is not ao much done by himself but by the MK Ultra program. He is under the influence, and before his puppet master pulls the strings this guy is a serious weapon, not a human. Feels like this year he is not in the MK ultra programme, as i haven't seen the handlers around anymore. Some years will tell, if HD will be a MX and SX star, like Roczen, Tomac, Windham, or just a legendary status, or aince missing out the MK Ultra program, will turn out like Britney Spears. 

 

Why i say this, well his sister was quite good in some nascar series some seasons ago, and now can not stay on track?

Do understand what I mean watch the video, and then look last years sx finishes, when HD was winning - always had a random dude over handling him.

This is the link to the MK Ultra video where you can see how an well known athlete - who was the king of the world on that time - is held in a constant hypnotic state.

(I retract my following statement, below. For the sake of bench racing I’m leaving it unedited here)

Did he move over to intentionally take away Mcadoos momentum and possibly preventive a pass?  Yes.

Did he intentionally take him out?  No..

Did he unintentionally do something that could possibly result in a broken front brake lever and potential loss of championship?  Yes.

I guarantee you in Mcadoos mind he owes Deegan one. 

He thought it was Kitchen.

This look back was more like a oh crap i didn't see you there/didn't think i was that close to you look back rather than are you on the ground after i attempted to take you out.

Could it have been an accident? Sure but If he wasn’t know for being a Dbag most would have thought it was but his actions say otherwise. As others have said, he is way to fast to play the stupid games, winning/actions speak louder than words in my book. 

It didn’t sound like Mitch was a fan of his riding, probably even more so now…

Reeds Black flag was/Is so outrages compared to what happens these days. 

Blatant retaliation should always be met with the harshest penalty, unless it’s Westin Peick dropping fists of fury on Vince Friese.

Don't you think Friese should have been able to sue Feld for creating an environment that allowed Westin to punch him?

Lol. I see what you did there. Good Luck to you. Macduffy here has multiple personality disorder with his takes on subjects. The more you push the more his opinions become fact.

"he should not have tried to pass where there wasn't room"

So Mcadoo should have waited until a section where he had this much room to try and make a run up the left?

With how much time was left in the race, 100% yes he should’ve waited. Would’ve finished a lot better that’s for sure!

Because it's Deegan I'm more on the side of thinking the cross jump itself was intentional, but I don't think the contact was (but hey who knows).

I do know exactly what the fallout would have been if the roles were reversed and Whackers took down Deegan in similar fashion.  Deegan would have been screaming bloody murder up and down the pits like the petulant little nepo baby that he is.

And everyone here would have been praising macadoo instead of what is going on here... I'm not a Deegan fan, but the responses here from grown men are pretty cringe worthy.

Deegan bumps Yoder (#60) in the 180 left before the rhythm but doesn't make the pass, he then jumps to the left side of the track in the rhythm lane to get to Yoder's left side for the 90 degree left turn coming up. When he jumped to the left side of the track he jumped right into McAdoo's line. 

He jumped across the track on purpose, he didn't jump into Mcadoo on purpose but it was still a bonehead move. 

If he keeps jumping across the track in traffic he's gonna end up in a wheelchair for the rest of his life.

If its not a bit, I feel bad even insulting you. Might be crossing a line.

I made it to the party. Yea if it was accidental any decent human would apologize. He's not going to get the benefit of the doubt when its bonehead move after bonehead move. Carry-on

I saw a similarity with Barcia holding up Ferrandis in his heat race.  Ferrandis knew how Barcia would defend and while frustrated, didn't do anything stupid that might take them both out, he just shook his head about a hundred times!

The earlier videos showed Deegan riding a wide bike and into McAdoo's line several times. Maybe McAdoo was frustrated and pushing the situation, but it didn't appear to be something that should have surprised McAdoo. Maybe he thought Deegan would be just another wheel ahead of him and he could follow him in to the turn, don't know. If they collided in a different point it could have turned out bad for Deegan too, seems like a mistake. If SMX (Deegan on Shimoda) was any indication, Deegan has limited skill in taking out riders and more likely to injure himself. 

Frankly I was more surprised that Deegan didn't run away from McAdoo, didn't seem to be on point during the race.

Considering that riders to the front and right of Deegan were moving slower than him, MacAdoo should've known that Deegan would be jumping to the left, inside of the next corner, the exact line MacAdoo would've taken himself if the roles were reversed.

No, he didn’t apologize to Ryder D after landing on his head at Vegas either. I always wonder if he’s going to get more normal as he gets older, but I don’t think that’s going to happen.

We also now know Haiden was fined was for denying the required post-race interview:

https://racerxonline.com/2026/01/15/anaheim-1-sx-penalty-report-haiden-deegan-fined-for-denying-tv-interview

So, dude purposefully, not passively, avoided discussing the race or any race incidents.
