They have allowed it again, although your riding style has to be in keeping with the class (or something like that), ie no feet on the ground.

Lazzarini had no problems riding motard styles with both feet up.

Sorry I may have missed it in the 9 pages but what happened to Jared Love?

Fair call Shaun, must admit I was a bit heated at the time after seeing the onboard video footage...

Obviously not the place to bring up this shit though, just a bit dissapointed that somebody at this level, about to represent our country at the IOM, put other riders and our marshals lives at risk by fllying past somebody at speed under the yellow flag - after the race had finished

What part of mechanical failure dont you understand, yes he was passing (ask him why) he crashed because his rear brake locked on !!

And of course you put no one at risk when you crashed into the same corner eh.

How about you just leave it alone and find something else to do

I dont want to get involved in a shit slinging match, but im baffled as to why his stuck brake resulted in him passing people. Having had the odd stuck brake myself i have usually found it has the opposite effect. If it was a stuck throttle i would fully understand.
Could someone in the know please afford an explanation as to how it happened ?

Im picking he was naughty and accelerated, and then the brake locked up ( I was in his pits when he came in and they had to fix it)

I think Quasi made it clear in his post Bob that the brake was the cause for the crash...not the overtaking....as I see the vid, it wasn't even overtaking 'at speed' as DocMartin would have you believe...maybe fast for him but in fact it was quite slow for Nick! :-)
