Apparently he was quite pissed off at the officials for not restarting the race. His gate dropped and then bounce back up blocking him. Anyway looks like he put his frustration to good use and an excellent charge. Just hope a stupid thing like that isn't going to have an impact at the end of championship.

Pourcel to Honda next year? 250F sx 450F MX?

Blatant racial descrimination . They'd have re started if it had been Dungey , Weimer or an American.




I say sue for emotional damages ...say 50 bajillion $$'s ??

Im pretty much %100 sure that Pourcel , like Dungey and Wiemer remains caucasian, so no chance for any racial discrimination...perhaps some home court bias at the most...

Can't wait to see him in action at Red Bud and Millville. I remember watching Bayle destroy our guys years ago and he looked like he was riding an amatures pace the whole time. Those French guys really have an unique style/approach. Glad he is here in the USA.

That was a legendary first lap. Wish I could have seen it.
