Indeed Mr-Mx....It can be pretty dangerous at times as well.....holding guys up is a part of racing I guess...but he looks like an ass doing it.....especially when he has no chance at beating the guys he is holding up...RD and Stew gapped him in no time...

That was a great video!

Alessi was doing what he needed to do in covering the inside and not leaving the door open. He did look like a tool doing it though.

When James cross jumped from right to left at about 2:56, I wonder how close Dungey was? That was the sort of riding that some people had issues with where he sometimes rides like he is the only one on the track. He clearly didn't look behind him to see where Dungey was so I hope he had a pretty good gap on him at that point. That would suck if he had cross jumped right into another riders line and caused a crash for himself or the other rider. The field is already depleted enough and I would hate to see another rider out for the season in the first round.

Still though, great ride by James, Alessi, and Dungey too. Hope Rattray heals up soon so he can get in there and mix it up!

@redneck... He had Heaps of room, Dunge would have needed a wheel on him for it to be an issue.. He had 3 bike lengths at least. It looked cool as well... What about Stew hittin Dunge in the 2nd turn, he looked back at him too lol
