From TWMX.com:
After hearing rumors that the AMA has again suspended Jason Lawrence, we made a couple phone calls to see if it were true. According to Boost Mobile/ampm/Monster Energy/Troy Racing Team Manager Chris McAvoy, the AMA has indeed issued a one-race suspension to Lawrence for his actions at the Jacksonville Supercross for his actions against Team Yamaha’s Broc Hepler in the main event.
“Obviously, Jason is super bummed,” said McAvoy. “He knows that he messed up, but we all feel that the penalties handed down by the AMA are a little on the extreme side.”
Stay tuned for more information as it becomes available, likely in the form of a press release from AMA Pro Racing.

And the legend of the bad boy grows..
The Shop
When is this kid gonna finally put the horse in front of the cart? Shame to see his talent go to waste by becoming a spectator again and again.
As long as he continues to do stupid things while under probation his penalties will be more severe than a rider with a clean record.
You can still run one in the 450 class.
I'm not 100% certain that the number of races for the penalty has been locked down yet. I was told, though, that Jason would like to finish up the SX season on his Lites bike.
Pit Row
I do know most of the riders. That's generally who I talk about.
Come on Jason. At least a hundred thousand people want you to kick ass. GET IT TOGETHER ALREADY.
Hard to buy tickets, and travel to a race as a jlaw fan when there is less than a 50% chance that the AMA will let him race due to his shitty decisions and actions.
Feld and MxSports take note.
Here we go again!
Most know I'm a "J-Law" fan.
Can't shake that 1...!
For McAvoy & Co., bummer for sure,
but from my experience he's lucky
the "AMA" didn't do more instead of less!
Jason may be talked about plenty these days,
hard to avoid that, but lucky he is!
Gotta be really careful with "luck".
Count on it, it's gone!
Abuse it, it's gone!
Cats have "9 lives"....!
People, don't!
My advice, "get 'em all at the pay window"!
Everyone loves a "winner"........

I would be looking for 3 press releases.
FIM
AMA
and YOT saying he was framed.
