Gilliam. WTF. I see what he was trying to do to Kelly, at least it appeared he was a bit more aggressive with the new kid. Does he think he’s Rowdy Burns pulling that rookies chain? To me there were more than a couple that were deliberate, watched a couple in slo mo. Hats off to Kelly for staying composed, Fong being tough as nails and PJ having a damn good strategy. I don’t like to see anyone crash but Gillim needed a break from that race. For the record I’ve always been a huge fan of his, ever since I seen him ride way back when. I’m all for aggressive riding but what he was doing was not necessary and now that he crashed he looks like an even bigger ass. IMP. This isn’t BSB FFS
I turned it off right after the flag. That was a smart strategy sitting back and possibly on purpose far enough to be able to avoid carnage potentially about to happen in front of him.
It was pretty clear what PJ was doing, especially with his comments from Pitt. Always like Hayden, but this year he’s been riding like a bit of an *ss.
that purple bike has more frequent flyer miles than a forbes 500 company exec. Serious hang time, again. Bummer. Was shaping up to be another wild supersport race.
What happened to Josh Hayes? He was right with the leaders until Gillim crashed, then dropped several positions and pitted in.
