Seattle SX - P1 | We had a great day in Seattle. I felt good everytime out there on the track and there was some really fun stuff to do.
After a good 2nd place in the heat race and a good start in the main event I quickly got into the lead. I found a good pace with some good lines which I really enjoyed racing.
Sadly I made a mistake in the second lap where I jumped a Red Cross flag. I obviously didn’t do it intentionally, I saw the yellow waving, slowed down but didn’t realize there was the Red Cross flag. I would never intentionally take risk around a down rider or the medical staff assisting on the track, neither to make a move that would hurt my points in the championship.
Yes I’m really disappointed for the mistake I made and the penalty that applied following the rulebook but we can’t argue it, I take full responsibility for it.
I won the race but got a 7 points penalty in the championship.
I was really happy with my riding the entire main, stayed focused and applied myself on the track. Let’s carry this momentum to Houston, Texas !
