Come on Ezra…pot meet kettle.
This looks pretty familiar to what happened Saturday….and listen to the interview right after…and the last lap had to do it comment. No penalty btw…which is fine…but now for Ezra to be part of the AMA decision on Ferry??

Ezra threw some hefty legit t-bones in his career, which this one wasn’t nearly his worst, and it makes the over punishment on Ferry look pretty stupid imo.
If you are wondering…I was at this race and I thought about it this last Saturday after Evan got way over penalized…so I looked to see if it was on YouTube and sure enough.
At this point AMA can’t do anything right. Damned if they do, damned if they don’t.
Classic case of overcompensating…..ama should have a panel of ex pro”s review the questionable infractions then make decision…..They need to hire Pro125 for input….or Jt$ when he isn’t shopping for t-shirts in the kids section of walmart….bonehead move by Ferry but for a transfer spot, so game on…..didn’t feld use Osbornes take out of Savatgy as advertisement for a while? Bla bla bla……see you at an anti helmet rally soon…wonder who is embezzling monies from the ama this year👌….
“I don’t blame them. I blame YOU! You HAVE to do better!”
Great race! Thanks for posting - Ezra had the speed, too bad that bike nearly killed him.
As far as comparing the 2, I don't know man.

I see what you did here
Ezra Lusk is the "rider rep". He's not the event referee (the person who makes those decisions), nor is he the appeals committee (the people who review and affirm/overturn those decisions or penalties).
I know he is not a ref….but he was standing there in the discussion with Star and J-bone on the Deegan penalty, so it seems he has some input/influence. If he says he argued against the penalty/fine then okay. Maybe Pulp will ask him next time he is on,
I have zero problems with them handing out penalties for rules that are broken no matter how big or small they are.
The problem is when a bike don’t have to do sound check after the race because ”the engine blew up” or when riders jump at a Red Cross flag and then get away with it because of some technical fuck up.
If they from now on choose to live by the sword and die by it, I’m fine with this. But I guess they will continue to be as concistent as always…
AMA dishing out penalties consistent? 🤣
Deegan gets a penalty and the only people it affects are Joe and Seth. How is that fair and just?
Whoever decides what the penalties should be needs to do better.

Last year Weege interviewed Lusk. Lusk said during this interview that he is the one who delivers the news of any penalties to the teams/riders. I don't know if he has any input, but if he isn't the event referee, he should not
I don't . .
Exactly
