If this is true, I'm sure he's just about gotten killed by now. Hope security is good there today.

love how they had the crash reel ready for when stew would wad it up. kind of weak IMO.

if js is hurt. this mx season just got mega boring. just isnt fun watching jake weimer and tommy hahn battle. idk why. but it isnt.
i'll give you that, I think it was in very poor taste, i'm extremely disappointed in the broadcast producers. we dont even know what happendd or if stewie is hurt and the broadcast team pull a no class stunt like that. unbelievable.

can you imagine some pro ball player being down on the field, no one knowing if he is paralyzed or not and they start showing every bad hit he has taken recently? just sayin

now, there has been something commented about a spectator running across the track ? just plain bad luck, could have happened to anyone.

So, the leader of a national mx race goes down because a fan is running across the track, and the TV crew doesn't get it?

At least we got to see that cool battle for fifth.

I have a friend at the track who saw it, he said he just lost the front end in a downhill sweeper!

I asked him about the spectator running across, waiting for his reply....

This track looks great.
Storm cloud in the back.
Can't wait to see all the pictures of this race.
Hoppen, Kardy, Cudby, GuyB, Milan, hope you guys get some shots with that rain cloud in the back ground.

If this is true.
The spectator needs to be jailed!
Disorderly conduct,trespassing and what ever kinda other charges they can strum up!
Make an example out of this fool!
I want to know his name....

DC...press charges if possible!

WTF, is this the 1970's? A fan running across the track during the middle of a Pro National.

Yepp, if he would have crashed on his own we'd be seeing the replays every 5 minutes. Obviously something is up.

Kills me that promoters and track owners/builders think its a great idea to make a 4th gear wide open downhill a mud hole.. #noroom4error

I am trying to find out if it was a spectator who jumped the fence, or a flagman or a photographer (which has been a problem before). As far as the leader not being followed the whole time, they are 14 cameras to cover 40 riders on a mile-long track. I'm sorry, but it's impossible to stay on the leader the whole time. In SX it's possible, but not on a giant motocross track on the side of a mountain.

My friend replied "I didn't see any of that!!! But he was hauling ass. So it could have been way early??? He was in the center of the track" Regarding spectator crossing.
