Was it during first lap of first practice/quali? There were a LOT of folks ignoring those flags.

When I read this title I thought it was for this. Moto 1 Kenny clearly skipped at least one roller right after Tomac passed him

In SX you get docked 2 spots. IMO, it should be the same for outdoors.

Thought this was going to be about Sexton falling over to give the OA to Roczen.
Be interesting to see a vid on where this WOG infraction happened

Really, you believe Sexton fell on purpose to let Roczen get the overall??

That wasn’t endangering a downed rider, a life is worth 1pt apparently .

I gotta admit, thats the first thing that i thought of when it happened, but after watching the replay - there's no way he did that on purpose.

They hired a crisis actor to ride the moto for him, duh. That's why it looked so authentic.

I think it was pretty minor in Roczens case, but I guess nobody can be too upset over a 1 point penalty.

Also, I'm not sure that acronym is ok dude 😂

No it can’t be his fault this outdoor season because he’s not even fast enough to beat 2 semi-retired part time KTM riders barely inside the top 10.

How does 1 point make sense though when they were up front? Surely it should at least be equivocated to a position?

This is a bunch of bullshit, it happened way after the fact and only after Star watched video on Sunday and sent it to AMA and MX Sports. I am all for the rules but thought had to protest within a half hour. The one point penalty tells me they were in a rock and a hard spot .
