Story lines so far.... RV sick from food poisoning in trailer with IV,  JGrant not feeling well either and is a race time decision.  

 

Tickle ate shit, red flagged, and put on back board for further testing.  He has feeling in all limbs.

I like how Reed addressed this. I was thinking the same thing.

Word floating around is he has a shoulder issue.  He was pretty animated when he walked into the pits.

What he say?

 

He questioned the rule in regards to IV use.

[Mongo134]

RV should sit this round out. Nobody wants to see him sheet himself, spraying the crowd over the tripple.

Oh snap.....whats the rule?

Now that would be some exciting racing. It would give a whole new meaning to being roosted.

4.6

b. Once a rider receives such hydration during the meet, the rider will not be permitted to compete in any further events at the meet including, but not limited to, any further practice sessions, heat races, qualifying sessions or final events composing any event in the meet unless and until the rider is released by the medical personnel who treats the rider for the specific emergency medical situation at issue.

So he just has to be realesed by the medical dude treating him. Has that not happened? He can afford to sit one out 30 points up. Whats the worse that can happen, his point lead slips to 10? The #5 wont win either way..... 3rd if Poto sits out and Stewart and Roczen dont have further issues.....

I quoted the wrong part of the rule ? . I think this is the area Reed was implying.

 

a. At no time during the event will a rider receive any type of intravenous hydration unless such hydration is deemed medically necessary by medical personnel as a result of an emergency medical situation (e.g. heat stroke) encountered by a rider, during, or as a result of competing in, an event, practices, heat races or qualifying sessions that are part of an event.

So he didn't get the iv at the event?

Sounds like RV should be Dq'ed for the event, but as we know the AMA only enforces its rules sometimes

[Mongo134]

All it takes is for DeCoster to take that rule to the AMA official and say "what you gonna do?"

[Mongo134]

Team Kawi arent stupid. I'm almost positive if Poto took an IV, we wont see him tonight. Would make for a great story if we did though..... From a rules perspective.

[DAVE94LIGHTNING]

Easy win for Stewart today. He looks smooth and RV is questionable as he's probably going to make the main event but wont have any practice sessions on the track. 

 

Stewart

Roczen

Dungey

Villapoto

JS7 rode sick.... RV needs to man up.

[kxjim]

LOL, according to JS7, he rides somewhat sick every weekend... Unless he wins, then he feels fine, But mostly, he's somewhat sick.
