When Tobi fell off Douglas was not under power so should have been excluded. Then to confirm that he comes out in rerun on Worralls bike. Costing us the bonus point. Not that it makes a vast difference but just do your job. Mickey Mouse sport can’t be taken seriously Just because he pulled up doesn't mean his bike wasn't under power, clearly the referee thought it was Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm afraid he was...on the fourth bend both leading riders passed the coasting Douglas before they had had time to respond to the red light. Douglas had clearly retired from the race and should no way have been allowed into the rerun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once the red light comes on the race is stopped, it doesn't matter that two riders hadn't seen it, or continued to race against each other. It depends on the situation of Douglas at the time the red light went on, was he under power? Edited September 8, 2023 by LesR 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It doesn't matter whether they responded or not, if he wasn't lapped before red lights come on he's still in the race, it's a bit of luck but that's Speedway. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Call me wolfie Posted September 8, 2023 Report Share Posted September 8, 2023 Theres an awful lot of sour grapes on here, imagine if it had been the playoffs and not just the bonus point up for grabs.
