RC makes the wrong call....at least 85% of the time.

Damn, we got robbed with Barcia going out right away this season. Dylan has been invisible all year but Barcia is already leading heat races straight away on the Ducati. He was crushing the whoops!

God lord this sport is dumb as hell at times. In other rulings, race direction has been able to use judgment - it’s in the rule book that they can do so. Do that here and recognize that Minear was punted off the track. Don’t put the guy a lap down. Wtf. This isn’t hard.

I feel like this is part of the issue. They were criticized heavily for going by the book in some cases and using judgement in others leaving it feeling like inconsistent application of the rules. It seems like now they’re strictly going by the book with zero room for judgement

What was the ruling? I had to step away from the race for a few minutes and missed it. 

riders are allowed to skip the finish line jump if they have to, just not on the last lap, which puts minear a lap down in 12th place lol

He practiced his response so many times that when he was finally asked he messed it up.

I think they found something with Dylan (shock?) while he was out.

In situations like that it needs to be discretion. Yea it can get dicey at times, but race director discretion needs to be the final word. In that situation pelletier says minear finishes behind kitchen because yes he went off the track but then re-entered at the next safest point. Having to turn around and go backwards to hit the transponder would be fkn ridiculous. Minear finishes 1 spot behind kitchen, next.

Glad to see Lane up and walking. He's a good guy and sends it.

Anything going to happen with Hill jumping on that Red Cross? I heard Ricky let out an audible “ooop” when he did it.

Yeah, maybe, but Dylan has still been finishing the same as he was the last couple years. Guess we’ll see what he does now that Bam is showing the bike is just fine.

I thought it was a different head pipe that made the difference for Dylan?

Hate to say it, but Hunter seems like a total head case right now.

He shouldn’t be battling Barcia and Craig.
