James Stewart said it best in his newest race review, Tomac trying to pass Roczen on the outside, in the same rut, shows a lack of respect, not in a terribly disrespectful way but just that most the riders know that Roczen doesn’t usually put up a super aggressive fight for position. Thinking they can pass him on the outside and not worry about getting stuffed or taken out, and the Tomac one is even more obvious, hes legit trying to take the same rut as him, while Roczen is still on the inside. Like there is no way he is trying that against Anderson, Barcia or even Sexton. They would have punted him off the track. Roczen needs to do more of what he did this weekend, show them they cant feel comfortable passing you on the outside, make them more hesitant when trying to pass, Barcia and Anderson have built up their reputation so much that it actually helps them keep riders behind them for so long.

Okay, I get it. Rules are rules, but if there is a potentially hazardous situation ahead why was the flagger not waving the yellow? At the end it is only 1 single point, but still the track crew and indicators in my opinion need to be better.

Right. I had to stare at one outside light to even see it flash, well more like a flicker. If I watched the riders then I never noticed the lights at all, didn’t notice them during the broadcast either. The flagger on the inside of the corner is possibly blocking it from being seen at all. If so, that means they have to look right while setting up to corner left. Shit is getting ridiculous

Nah he had a rear brake until the last lap cause he was attempting passes up until that last lap or 2, his rear brake is why he quit trying but he had a rear brake for most of that 10 minute battle or he wouldn't have stayed as close for as long as he did. The rear brake didn't play a part until he over shot the berm when kenny bumoed him twice in the same corner and he backed off. Cant take that away from Kenny he held him off. You don't battle that close for that long without a rear brake.

@@johnblatner3867 It didn't work and then not work, it worked up until the last lap when he backed off. And I wouldn't say Tomac has always had his number, they've been pretty equal on battles throughout the years both are probably the best in Outdoor and they've both battled for years. Roczens beat Tomac for Chips and Tomac has beat Roczen for Chips but that's racing. Roczen has also raced less seasons than Tomac due to injury both are Outdoor Champs respectively. They're both my top 2 riders I've always followed and rooted for, but Tomacs brake really didn't have anything to do with it until the end. Tomac didn't make the pass because Kenny actually rode that Kenny for once and finally fought back and played defense like his old self. That's why Tomac didn't pass. Kenny since his injuries is known to kinda lay over and not put up much of a fight or battle due to risking going down which can't say I blame the dude after almsot losing his arm but I'm glad he's fighting back. But I can't take that win away from Roczen he earned that spot maybe not first but winnings winning, he earned the spot ahead of Tomac though. One of the best battles I've watched in a long time.

All the soy boys complaining Tomac wasn’t penalized should read the rule again. Paraphrasing, but “Rider must make all efforts to maintain both wheels on the ground.” When he saw the lights he did what he could, purposely backing off and trying to stay on the ground. It doesn’t say “if your wheels leave the ground at all, your ass is ours!” That was incidental air time from the momentum he had. One point is an extremely mild penalty enforced because the others made no attempt to slow. It was clearly not malicious; they likely didn’t even see the lights, and nobody was put in any danger. Hence, the most mild of penalties available. Stop trying to make something out of nothing.

The idiot(s) that installed this " light signal " means of communicate is not racing or has never raced in various tracks himself this is totally and absolutely very absurd and ridiculous approach of communication for this situation.
