jules m Posted August 29, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 29, 2010 dont really know what u saw stoaty but i was right in front of it no way that was a racing incident that was blatant taking out It depends where you stand I guess it can be deceiving depending on your view point Taken from the superb Weymouth Speedway website - "The last heat was somewhat controversial, Brown fell third turn first lap, the race continued with Kurtz in the lead, Cockle challenged Newman for second place cutting inside him entering the third turn second lap. Newman careered into the fence right in front of the Hornets supporters who made their voice heard when the meeting referee judged Newman to be the cause of the stoppage and disqualified him from the re-run which was won by Kurtz from Cockle putting the Hornets on top of the National League winning 39-52. After viewing video footage filmed by DL Sport Productions it clearly shows that Cockle had the racing line and Newman's foot caught Cockles dirt deflector throwing him off balance and into the kickboards while trying to re-pass the Wildcat."

BobC Posted August 29, 2010 Report Share Posted August 29, 2010 Love the wording of that Jules! To me it reads that Kyle put his foot in the way of the deflector! I hardly think so,more a case of the rider on the inside taking his foot away from him.How on earth can video footage taken fron the 1st turn,show EXACTLY what happened going into the 3rd turn? Well,I was stood right by the pit gate,just inside the pits.I have no doubt the referee got it wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Catalan Posted August 29, 2010 Report Share Posted August 29, 2010 (edited) I think almost everyone else thought he got it wrong. Reminded me of the Gollob move last GP Edited August 29, 2010 by sugarray Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RAFA Posted August 30, 2010 Report Share Posted August 30, 2010 I have no doubt the referee got it totaly wrong as it look to me on the back straight that Cockle just took Kyle leg the same thing he trys to do most week at Weymouth Byron Best Wishes for a speedy recovery He has been one of the best things about Weymouth this season Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
