Purposely move in front of James?...I wasn't at the race but people say he was held up during his charge...

No, he moved left to take the outside on the corner. Probably his line all along. Welcome back.

Was not at the race but you could catch a glimpse on the Tele, my son spotted it, looks to clearly move over in front of James. Wey has to get Kawi parts some how.

Kind of odd to just go all the way from one side to another in the middle of the whoops when he did know the fight for the lead was going on around him...

He might have thought he was yielding by going outside, since the main line was to go inside and roll for everyone but Reed and Brayton.

I saw it when he did it and at first thought he did it to block James and then I thought maybe he was just trying to get out of the way.

Yeah but even with the lappers in his line Chad still blew around them, O that's right only James had to deal with lappers, those same guys were not on the track when Reed came past!

he knew everyone was taking the inside of the next turn and was trying to move out of the way because of the blue flags. I didn't see him look over his shoulder and I doubt he knew it was stewart coming.

If you watch the race they were not in chads way in the corners. James would never of caught chad it's just the fact riders getting in the way. Oh and did i ever say it stopped James from catching Chad, I didn't.

Happens around 17:37. I do not give a fuck..... if you are getting lap you hold your line. Wey is lucky he didn't take out JS7. I am assuming it was a bobble by Wey..... or at least I hope it was. Would love to hear both Wey and Stewart's thoughts on it.

Wrong answer. It doesn't matter..... Wey was getting lap and didn't hold his line.

Reed backed it down the last lap and a half. He was pulling away until he did that. Reed has beat Stewart straight up many times but each time there was at least some little something that actually happened that someone would use as a reason why it wasn't straight up. This time you guys are just making shit up, Wey had less than zero to do with Stewart getting passed and left.

Other guys were using that same line, inside to outside to setup for the corner. KRoc did it early on. Watch the race again.

Also, watch the semi in which Wey was up front. He was coming from the inside out to set up for the next jump as were other riders in the heat, semi and main. Nothing to see here, move along and talk about strobes, bears or seat bounce theories.

I didn't read one post where someone predicted Stewart was going to pass Reed. This is about Wey and Stewart.

bd don't listen to Randy S....he is on an Anti-stewtard rampage...

hard to say but if 7 was getting lapped and went all the way across a set of whoops in front of a guy 1.5 seconds out of the lead on the last lap...the end of the internet...

did it matter? not in my opinion...Reed was better and had him covered...

did it slow james down, uh, it seemed to...

If you are pointing that out then Reed fans can point out how it looked like reed was slowed down by Dungey when he got back going after his crash as well

What some of the guys have already said. Wey did the right thing. Like the blue flag dictates Wey was going to the outside line to leave the inside line open for James because that's the line James (and every other guy except Chad and Brayton I believe) was taking every lap of the race.

I was there. He did not do it on purpose. How is he supposed to know where Stewart is right after being passed by Chad?

And apparently, they are blue flagging the leaders, so the people being lapped never see it
