Is said "GTFO the way"

 

I just figure that shouldn't be legal. You see how hard grant made it for Tomac to get around?

 

Honestly Marvin should have never passed him in the first place if they didnt want the ensuing scandal of team tactics to play out like it has. But then again, speculation has pointed out that Marvin passed him to prove a point to earn a win bonus even though he technically didnt win. The post race press interview is interesting. I'm conflicted and think let the best racer win, but at the same point I understand the aspect that every point counts and with Marvin not in contention should play ball in Dungey's favor. I just don't understand why he passed him in the first place. Eh. If any of you guys are vital members you should see the twisted panty cry fest going on over there.

 

Marvin made the pass to show that he was fully capable of winning the race. He is a good member of the team however, and at the last minute "messed up" to let Dungey get his points.
Grant on the other hand definitely should have messed up and gotten Tomac a extra point.

 

Not sure what musquins contract status is but I doubt he will be the secondary rider on KTM if he can get a big payday somewhere else. If jgr, rch, or factory Yamaha opened their wallets that would make for an interesting series if roczen is back healthy next year.

He extended it till 2019 on Saturday.

 

My money says Dungey retires soon... Musquin will get plenty of wins in the next couple years on the KTM

 

Yep he pretty much flat out said he's done, alluded to wanting to start a family and focus on living life. He alluded to staying with KTM, likely a spokesperson I'm guessing. With that said I don't see Musquin as KTM's main racer, so who's left to pick from, should be an interesting silly season.

 

Jeremy Martin should be interesting on a 450

 

Really want Tomac to pull this off!

 

I can't believe they played the Tomac press conference comments. Bahahaha.

 

Las Vegas track is always fun. Watch out Tomac. Don't crash tonight cause you will lose by more than 3 points.

 

I'm gonna say it now: Fuck Zack Osbourne and that takeout pass. That was complete B.S..

 

It was a dirty pass but it's savatgys fault. Don't be riding around in 8th if you want to win the championship.

 

Holy shit what an epic night of racing! I can't even put it into words right now. The Dungey haters can STFU because he won by more than 3 points, and never had a worse finish than 4th. Tomac may have dominated the middle-end of the season, but those 2 8th place and that 15th place finish are what killed it for him.
As far as the 250s go, I think Savatgy let that one go, it was all on him, Osborne wanted it more. That is all.

 

Wow dungey deserved that! Epic season. Loved how this went.

 

Kind of agreed on the 250 race with Savatgy running that low in the order but at the same time he was trying to salvage points when he got freight-trained...it was dirty no matter what position or points they were racing for. Hammering someone for points is still hammering, it's still a dirty move.

 

X2 so stoked for Dungey! Definitely the most exciting season in a long time! My wife and I could barely hold it together during that main. Amazing.

 

Congrats to Dungey for his fourth!

 

Idk if Osbourne was really trying to do that aggressively as it looked. You can see him lock up the rear brake, as if trying to slow down to not just plow him, but then again he could be using that to intentionally slide into him. I think I would have to agree with what Carmichael said, savatagy shouldnt have been in that position in the first place.

Crazy night of racing, a blast to watch!
