Despite the reasons Lawrence gave on the podium, you don't wave on a competitor to the lead unless you're completely confident you got these guys covered.  Even with having no effect on the OA or points, it was a pretty bad ass thing to do.

Idk about that, would’ve been badass if it actually made a difference but kenny was getting 2nd anyway. Im a Jett fan but I didn’t like that, I was looking forward to a battle. I wish Kenny could ride like that all the time.

Jett didn’t want to push it and crash he knew he had the overall and didn’t want to throw away the chance at the championship.

Roczen was going to pass him, wave him by instead of giving him the confidence of passing him, I think it was a little mind games.

Ya not a fan of that at all. Whether it made a difference in points or not, that really sucked to see.

No it didn’t, his calculations were wrong.

Kenny was all over him...LATE in the race where everyone said he would fade (and are historically correct).       Jett knew the pass was coming,  stupid move to just wave him by.    The faulty "math" excuse/explanation made it even worse.

He let the old racer by to relive some of his past glory.  Lawrence could have ridden away for the win very easily.

              The wave by pass meant nothing in and of itself, however I do believe it was meant as a Fuck you toward Mr.Chase Sexton.

Do you think Kenny would’ve still finished second even if Jett hadn’t made that move, or could it have changed the race?


Honestly, I get the frustration. I’m a Jett fan too, but that moment kind of took the edge off what could’ve been a real battle. It felt like Kenny had something special going on, and seeing him ride like that made me wish he could hold that form more consistently. Whether or not Jett's move mattered, Kenny was flying. Still, part of me wonders what if things played out clean? We might’ve seen a true showdown.
