Kyle Chisholm deserved more than the black flag. He should get a one year suspension, and circumstances being what they were, James Stewart could have been penalized one position.

Kyle, you went from a lapper, to the most hated man in motocross, in one fell swoop. Sometimes lessons have to be learned the hard way.

Seems to me, Reed's block pass on Stewart into the tough blocks cost Stewart more time than Chisolm's bump on Reed, and Stewart came back. Tit for Tat and racing often times has a bump or two.

Do no one pay attention when Reed pushed Stewart into the tough blocks? That could have been race over. And can anyone really believe that Reed would have passed Stewart? Reed and Reed fans seem to be synonomis with excuses.

Chad Reed can't stay in front of James Stewart for an entire race. The fact is, Reed can't ride with the same intensity that Stewart can muster. The little bobble that Stewart's teammate caused, didn't amount to anything near the amount of time that Stewart put between himself and Reed by the time the race ended. It was lucky for Reed that it gave him an excuse for getting whipped by Stewart again, even though the incident played little if any difference in the race, certainly not 3.5 seconds worth.

WHAT CHISOLM DID WAS BS!!! He was not even in the race.He should have pulled over like every other rider did.I thought alot of Chisolm,till now.Shows what kind of sportsman he is.AS for the Stewart getting into the tough blocks,its called a block pass.

reed did stand bubba up and put him into the blocks but Chisolm has no business even getting in the middle of it hell if he was better he would not of been getting laped the only reason he did it is cuz he knew bubba would of choked sooner or later with that much pressure form reed {Chisolm is a punk)and so is bubba if he dose't admit that HIS TEAMMATE was wrong

Shame it happened, Stewie certainly didn't need any help. He has had more speed than Reed all year, and like prior races, has gotten Reed all fired up, only to gap him in the end.

Agree with SXWATCHER above in that Reed is unable to ride with Stewart. To top of off the gap was almost 9 seconds just a few laps after Stewarts lap 12 pass. On Chisolm: I was wondering if it was intentional myself until watching the video a few times. He was on the inside carrying quite a bit of momentum into the right hander which of course was going to carry him UP the berm since he couldn't get it slowed down in time. Watch the videos again, he was on the breaks and not even looking at Reed attempting a take out. Definitely a VERY BAD ROOKIE MISTAKE however. He should have known better and did deserve a black flag.

Who takes all the dirt away?

How do they do it without "cutting" the carpet?

What do the Ute players think about giving the stadium over to motocross?

Bubba did it last week.........Chisholm this week........do you guys see the trend? Reed is being screwed over the same way the Stewart tried to screw over Ricky in the past. Let's go Reed, do as Ricky did, prove you are the better man, not to metion a more honest racer. You didn't win your championship by being a true a.. hole.

I agree with LSC James surely doesn't need anyones help and diphrint said it right... Reed's block pass caused James more time than Chisholms bump on Reed (which James was bumped too...by his own team mate...still think it was on purpose??) So Reed ends up 3.7 seconds behind James over that? Give me a break... quit looking for excuses and see it for how it is... James is the best rider & Reed is a good challenge for him.

Chad Reed is a cry baby he is mad that stewart can out ride him any day of the week.Chisolm was not even a problem, Chad almost pushed James into the stands with that cheap move he did. But like a true stand up guy stewart is,he still rode clean and passed reed and smoked him.Chad Reed is a second place rider and will always be until james retires.So called champ,always riding safe enough to come second,or hoping stewart crashes.

This goes out to writer (racer 34) sounds to me you have a colour problem.Could be BLACK or BLUE but you need to get over it. James Stewart is here to stay,and no Chad Reed or anyone can hold a candle to the talent of James Stewart.Sleep on that.

What a great race all the way up till, Chisholm Stewart's teammate had to ruin Yamaha pride and and the true racing spirit of the sport!
When Chisholm a lapped rider purposely tried to take Reed out...That my friends is crossing the line & I hope he gets the suspension & disrespect he so deserves!

Reed & Suzuki have showed only respect on the track!

Ghisolm's Yamaha needs to be painted black!

Leave the racing to to the pro's Stewart & Reed

Chad will always be #2 while stewart is still alive!
Look at the total heat wins and the total final wins! If stewart didn't go down in the first race of the year then he would be way up on points!

I'd love to see Alessi t-bone Stewart and take him out of the race in Vegas next week. That entire Yamaha team is nothing but a bunch of punks.
