Was Deegans moves aggressive? Yes. Could Smith have gotten back up and kept himself out of the LCQ? Absolutely. But ultimately he crashed himself out of the main event. I'm a big supporter of both riders, Smith took himself out of the main event not Deegan..

I missed the part where Deegan took Smith out ,I saw the part where Smith was riding aggressively and ended up eating shit .

I've never seen outrage of racing incident where the guy who stayed up is blamed for the guy running into him and taking himself out, there is no other explanation for this incident, had Deegan taken out Smith from inside in the previous turns sure I'd expect some salt on here, but Smith took himself out if you cannot see that I don't know what to say, the hysteria on here is like when Ferrandis took out CC. Anyway Deegan looked pretty damn stokked in the press conference but nervous, it was pretty obvious he was told by whoever to...

Izer went too far. I’m all for the media asking tough questions… but you can’t just scold him until you get the answer you want. Props to 96. Deegan earned his place on the box. He’s not a kid in detention. Great night of racing.

Deegan is literally the teenager that works with a bunch of mid twenty early thirty jack asses that screw with him on job sites. Most of us have been in a similar dynamic at some point I assume. Does anyone think for a moment his teammates and fellow riders in his class are not envious of him and pull shit on him all the time away from the cameras? Does anyone think Smith doesn't think that he was once where Deegan is now, and it pisses him off that his own career is basically squandered? Anytime Deegan can get payback...

If Jordan Smith was concerned about his title hopes he should’ve realized it was a “qualifier with no points or championship implications” and backed off and settled for just getting in. He is supposed to be the “Veteran”. Izer acted like a little boy who didn’t get the answer he wanted from mommy and Hunter’s comment was spot on! People bitch about everything and have selective amnesia when it’s their guy doing the rubbing. Can’t have it both ways depending on which end your guy is on.

Jordan Smith, riding a Factory Star Yamaha, failed to get a 4th place finish in an LCQ. Is that Deegan's fault too? The dude is literally a child and grown ass adults are losing their shit over him. One thing I will say, I haven't really heard the kid speak before, but my god does he gives off Beavis and Butthead vibes with that laugh haha.

Yep. One's on the way up. One's on the way out.

Clearly Hunter was talking to you when making a general comment about social media. TBH it wouldn’t matter what he does, some of you would find a way to put a negative spin on it 🙄

Lol at Thrasher mouthing "oh my god" when Deegan says Smith is 5th in points The new Deegan surfer laugh is the future I see a ghost ride coming soon

I did notice these two pics from back at the triple crown

They're teammates but who knows what happens at the test track, might be some banter that carried over to the heat race. We'll never know but Haiden seems unbothered by it all and I absolutely love it.

First off , I agree with what Hunter said. 2nd , I don't blame David for asking the question, or am I miffed with the way Haiden answered it. It's racing.....heat , lcq or main , it's a freakin'race. Some times some plastics get rubbed. Jordan went down one more time and stalled it after him and Haiden got together. That is all on him.

agree...deegan is still a kid....he answered ML's question ..(albeit not to press satisfaction)..there was no need to keep pushin it? if u don't like the original answer don't keep asking the same questions........

I was fine with David asking for more detail after ML didn't get the additional context I assume all of the media was hoping for. Haiden gave an answer to David, and after David kept pushing because he wasn't happy with said answer, in my eyes it became slight antagonization.

Hunter just took the bull by the horns and called the keyboard warriors bitches while having Deegan’s back. Deegan is fast, young, aggressive and will make some mistakes. That was a gnarly move to a teammate during a heat race. I’m still a big fan!

David sure got handled during that exchange. It was an embarrassing moment for a veteran reporter in the sport.

Who was the "host" that asked the dumbass question of Hunter right off the bat and Hunter owned him? Is that dildo Dan from the day program that should be taking trash out rather than being on stage?

I know who he is, I was afraid that is who it was. DMXS radio. Thanks

David? I did not see the press conference, who is David?
