That rule definitely needs to be reworded to look at who was actively competing the lap prior to the red flag
Any boots on the ground? Just wondering on the spectator turnout considering the potato potato crowd won't be padding the gate numbers.
That was nasty. He crossed the screen like a shooting star. You should probably ask for some clarification in case something like that happens again. For instance, let's say this happens to Gus… Can he rejoin the race if the red flag comes out while he's sliding on the ground, but that if it comes out when he bounces back up in the gravel trap? That shit probably needs to be clarified.
He didn't ask how many square feet (43,560, irrespective of shape, but discounting slope area), he said "feet". A square acre is a tad under 209 ft. on a side. A squished acre rectangle at 10:1 is a chain X a furlong. I survey at 21 paces per chain.
So, the Michelin techs calling the factory on Saturday afternoon and delivering new shit to the top few on Sunday didn't have an influence on MotoGP or WSBK? Or CSBK racers coming to race AMA Pro and carrying back specials to use in the next Canadian round didn't have an influence? Ask Colin Fraser to be sure. The problem was/is the race orgs have to set parameters to prevent it from happening.
The OEMs aren't running the show like they did in the past. Then Pirelli has won 4 of the last 7 Daytona 200s and sweep the podium in 2022. Hmm, it looks things have changed now.
Yet I'm sure I'm still the asshole for not letting the riders decide for themselves at Road Atlanta last year...
Gus's dad is on fire on the facebuk! Today should be interesting! Hopefully no rain,or chance of officiating ..
Not going to debate the call(s) at this time but the racers do not and should not determine when a race is called, especially the leaders as it will always be to their own personal benefit. And you don't let the kid who normally races in SoCal determine what is too wet Agreed he did the wise thing for sure.
