Was this guy watching the same race? Yates had not made the pass yet...
IMO this has nothing to do with what happened.

Mr. (Cow) Patti is a moron. So let me get this straight: Because you've been lapped means you slow down and stop racing? You're supposed to just give up?
Was Fania supposed to pull off the track through that turn and let Yates by?
Those are some pretty weird rules, if you ask me.

What a cockhole. Even if your blue flagged, you maintain your racing line, its the faster guys responsibility to make a clean pass.

He's pretty proud of his writing expertise; I'm sure I saw the same posting on RRW's website.

Do you think that the backmarkers have mirrors on their bikes? His logic doesn't wash, as I doubt he even knew Yates was behind him . . .

What abtech said. Fania probably had no clue Yates was even there until he started to make contact. I don't care what editorial credentials this guy has, he's full of

I agree, he's a moron. If all the lapped riders pulled off, there would have been FOUR bikes left racing, since that's all that were on the lead lap at the finish. Yeah, that'd be exciting.

Hell, I could lock up 37th place by just doing the start lap and pulling off! They shouldn't even let 'em enter if they're gonna be lapped. That'll show those damn pesky privateers who keep trying to steal some factory guys TV time.
