I put an if in there as I didn’t have all the facts. You can be waving your hands one minute then pass out. Heat can catch up With people even after they have been pushing a bike, seen it a couple times in trails (light headed and took a break type of thing). If he was indeed doing that shit on purpose his actions shit on so many aspects of the race, racing in general and just being a decent person. Put other people at risk, people lost track time, money, wasn’t there or following too close but sure strategies were screwed up, list goes on far too long. Not to mention now Evelyne has to deal with this shit which makes me really glad I’m not him. She cares about her racers. Sounds like red flagging was 100% correct. What a total douche move. How could the guy show his face after that?
i can 100% say if it was heat exhaustion like i had, he wasnt loading shit on shit. i was useless when i had it. utterly useless.
Yep the time I heard it at a track day where they were able to 'follow me' and get. the rider safely off track (he had been in the grass a couple times). He was incoherent and they got him off the bike, no riding to pits. There is no way if he was loopy enough to walk back to a hot track that he was loading a bike.
Ummm. Our crippled ass team had zero issues. In fact, I was on track and witnessed first hand what the asshat did. He was still rolling far left between the first bridge and T9 waving an arm. Next lap he and his bike were lying in the grass halfway between T9 and T10a.
I believe he was saying that he couldn't believe that someone from the South East wasn't used to the heat and humidity.
