That whole situation seemed a little excessive for a broken thumb.

He sat up, but it didn't appear as if the medic wanted him to. They were stablizing his neck when he did. 

I'm perfectly okay with the precautions to get him off the track.

I guess concussions don’t mean anything to you? That’s a head injury. Slightly more concerning than a thumb.

The way that his arm kind of froze up right after contact definitely made me think it was a bad concussion. Heal up, Garrett!

Little excessive? He was in the middle of two track lanes. Can’t get him off the track safely like that with a race going on

I immediately thought Red flag right after the 1st turn because of serious crash location.

Why did it take them 3 laps before throwing the Red flag?

Yeah it's like he just wanted to sit there on the track with a concussion and a fucked up hand. Whistling

3 laps, less than 3 minutes for them the make a call to stop a race isn’t long.

I was shocked when they threw the Green flag heading them toward them and not the red flag.

What im saying is, his injuries seem worse than hes letting on. His words, not mine are " a little concussed and broken thumb"

You can walk with a broken thumb and we have all seen riders barely able to stand up yet get up and keep racing.

I think he said something else to the medics when they got on scene to initiate back board protocol and red flag.
