Vancouver Supercross Saturday Pit Bits

Of course the biggest news here is revolving around James Stewart's ankle (it's extremely painful, but he's still racing), the track (rock-filled), and everyone hoping that the racing will be as stellar as it was last weekend…and there's little doubt that it's a possibility.

Ricky Carmichael set the pace in both practice sessions, with Chad Reed and David Vuillemin staying the closest. James Stewart only rode the first practice, presumably to minimize the swelling in his ankle, but as far as we know, he's in for tonight.

The field in the Supercross Lites division will offer much more depth than last weekend, with Ryan Dungey, Ryan Sipes, and Jake Weimer in the mix.
