Gives him the sour puss ‘I cooda won the overall if…’ defense.Haha that’s a bit harsh. Pretty clear you’ve got to go through the gates but Richie was 4 sec back on the stage - not exactly so slow that you’d throw in the towel, and if you threw in the towel you don’t do it by cutting a random gate and hoping for a DQ, you get off the bike and call it.
Tough outcome and a shame not to see Jacko and Rude battling it out for the title in the last round, and straight DQ for that missed gate (rather than say, 20sec time penalty) seems pretty harsh, but rules are rules and it’s Richies job to know them. Those gates were pretty fucking obvious haha.
Gates were clear AF for sure. Every racer new it, and clearly the spectators did too.
