I do like your idea of a indicator on the bars. Patent it! Haha
I dunno, I would Bet Jeremy made the decision based on his reflexes and experience in similar situations.
If he goes for the double, he would plow right into Harrison.
Looks like he was fucked no matter what.
Just for the record, AMart didn't "keep getting landed on". Easy to sit in the easy chair and criticize a split second decision by one of the gnarliest dudes in MX.
When he got hurt in the outdoors he was holding his line...Justin Cooper drifted over and took his front end in the air.
But don't let the facts get in the way of your douchy narrative.
AMart is an awesome human being and a legend of the sport.
Same handful of schleps every week.

However, unlike others in this thread I'm open to suggestions that my theory may be wrong
I don’t agree that Cooper didn’t respect the Red Cross flag. I’d say he slowed down more than normal for that flag, and recognized that the situation was serious. But the Red Cross flag, no matter how aggressively it’s waved, doesn’t mean the same thing as the red flag. He had the lead, it’s his job to win, and there has never been a case where Red Cross flag means exit the track.
Wheels left the ground but they didn’t double. Cooper even double-checked the flag and the riders behind him before rolling the triple, after already rolling the previous lane.
The best move for Cooper to have made would have been to cut inside the corner instead of going around the downed rider, then everyone else may have followed suit. But they blocked the inside lane with the tough block so he and McAdoo can’t be totally faulted.
It was a clusterfuck. They should have had more red flags out on the track and maybe they will next time.
1 - someone is already on the scene
2 - riders are 20 seconds into the highest adrenaline spike that they’ve had in months.
3 - we have multiple different color flags waving
When it’s a red flag scenario all the flaggers should be waving the same flag..period.
But once I saw him walking off doing the stretch and pull I knew it was out.
A friend of mine had the same problem and went bowling... you can guess what happened on his first throw.
