Just rewatched the qualifying wreck. Appears he may have been out. Should he have been held out of competition for the remainder of the night?

Just reread the AMA rulebook and nothing on if a rider is “knocked out” should they be held out. It’s the Chief Medical Officers call based on the comparison of the ImPACT Concussion Management Test.
Not sure how I feel about this, good to know they have something in place, but I’m a bit uneasy knowing they are sending them out immediately afterwords considering some symptoms may not appear immediately.
