Only $10 for all 2024 SX, MX, and SMX series (regularly $30).
I'd assume he can race AMA - MX Nationals.
Now if it was the GP's or even the MXoN - he would be suspended - both ran by the FIM.
SX is both an AMA championship & FIM championship.
Not sure how that will work out come January ,granted a suspension is still in place/effective?
Can only get AMA points if they allow him to line up?
No FIM points or maybe a full on suspension from the series in general.
interesting how his career will proceed.
The Shop
We're allowed 1 throwaway moto.
With that said,that's not a bad team.
They could get it done - granted they were all on their game and we had no bad luck.
sounds like he is fucked.
Dont they do that in baseball? A player tests positive late in the season, he appeals and thus his appeal process takes him through the playoffs where hes able to play, then he just sits out the the first 50 games of the next season.
So if your James, and MXSports is going to honor the rule process for sx, he can serve out his suspension during mx then be cleared for sx2015...depending of course on the length of the suspension.
Who's to say hell even have a ride next weekend? Corparete sponsors don't want to sponsor an athlete that test positive for PEDs. It's not a good look. Well have to see how that plays out. I'm sure DCis going to have to make some kind of decision on this. Can't AMA suspend his pro card? Then he couldn't race.
What a mess. Sucks for our sport. This is why I didn't want testing. We are to small. One top guy fails & were down to 3 podium guys. We only have 5-7 A-listers, this isn't football where they have 250 A-listers.
Pit Row
My only thoughts are did Yosh Suzuki know? did Mike Webb know? Rado? James Sr. & Sonja?
If I was the Stewart camp they've got 2 options - either appeal, or pull a RC/fuel issue and drop the mic.
Still a fan and always will be of James. What he's done on a motorcycle is amazing. I think this is the last chapter on his career though.
Recently everyone has been talking about how JS is riding "more mature, not pushing and making the little mistakes". Those little mistakes are the exact kind of thing adderal would help with.... Curious!!!
P
Look at his margin of victory in the 3 motos hes won this year.
Thunder Valley---1.9 seconds
Highpoint Moto 1---4.5 seconds
Highpoint Moto 2---.88 seconds
If he loses FOCUS two or three times during a 17 lap race that margin is erased.
It is only a suspension from FIM competition until further notice. I would be willing to bet that if the Sample B comes back positive and he indeed has a prescription, he will get a slap on the wrist in the form of a fine and time of suspension served. IMO, he will be on the line at Anaheim 1.
Now, my question is who in his camp dropped the ball??? I'm a control freak so I would know everything that rule book had to say when it came to testing after seeing what happened to Lance. James has a lot of folks around him and surely someone should have been tasked with knowing the ins and outs of the testing protocol.
I'm not a JS7 super fan by any means but too many mother fuckers on here are taking delight in him getting popped. He failed the test, now he has to face the consequence. Is it stupid??? Yea, absolutley but rules are rules. Everyone has to play by them. Should this define his career??? FUCK NO! The bottom line is the guy is a stud on the motorcycle and has changed the sport in many ways. This should not deminish his legacy in any way, shape, or form.
