Supersport Arragon

Post by Kev L »

Anyone see the Supersport race today? How was Kenan SofuoÄŸlu not disqualified for the season after that display. Petulant child. :thumbdown: :crazy:

Didn't hear what his side of the story was, but forret was very reluctant to talk about the insident, which makes me thing he was feeling guilty about something he did.

But from the angle we could see, it looked well crazy, but I noticed the 2nd time I watched it that Keenan did look over his shoulder to see if he was passed Forret before he swerved

Forret was on a Kawasaki mate so I think he had been warned off. Sam Lowes was a little more expressive and threatening toward The crazed Turk. When I watched it the second time it looked even worse to me, he looked across, swerved and added his body weight to the strike as well. All at 180mph ish tw@. I found it amazing that they only docked him three positions! :crazy:
I wonder if he mistook Forret for Lowes as Sam had roughed him up a bit earlier on. :think:

Agreed, I would have thought that a disqualification was more appropriate to dangerous riding.
But I would have thought that most of the riders and team owners made their feeling felt.....and he'll have got a lecture from race direction as well.

Still, Sam's in striking distance now.
On this form it'll be an interesting end to the season.
It's not falling off, it's an upgrade opportunity.
