Was it during first lap of first practice/quali? There were a LOT of folks ignoring those flags.

Interesting…yet no penalties for the guys on camera going around the rollers behind the start?

When I read this title I thought it was for this. Moto 1 Kenny clearly skipped at least one roller right after Tomac passed him

In SX you get docked 2 spots. IMO, it should be the same for outdoors.

Josh Gilbert penalized for obstructing trackside advertising with head.

Thought this was going to be about Sexton falling over to give the OA to Roczen.
Be interesting to see a vid on where this WOG infraction happened

Really, you believe Sexton fell on purpose to let Roczen get the overall??

That wasn’t endangering a downed rider, a life is worth 1pt apparently .

I gotta admit, thats the first thing that i thought of when it happened, but after watching the replay - there's no way he did that on purpose.

They hired a crisis actor to ride the moto for him, duh. That's why it looked so authentic.

I think it was pretty minor in Roczens case, but I guess nobody can be too upset over a 1 point penalty.

Also, I'm not sure that acronym is ok dude 😂

No it can’t be his fault this outdoor season because he’s not even fast enough to beat 2 semi-retired part time KTM riders barely inside the top 10.

How does 1 point make sense though when they were up front? Surely it should at least be equivocated to a position?

Kellen Brauer pointed out where this most likely occurred in his latest Race Examination

This is a bunch of bullshit, it happened way after the fact and only after Star watched video on Sunday and sent it to AMA and MX Sports. I am all for the rules but thought had to protest within a half hour. The one point penalty tells me they were in a rock and a hard spot .
