Fracture de l’égo.
Exactement comme Matthes qui l’avait immédiatement posté, Thomas et Pingree penchent pour une fracture du visa, comme Davalos…
« David Pingree: I’m not sure what the hell is happening here, because it isn’t like this race in Toronto was a big surprise that Feld threw out at the last minute. Davalos and his team have known that they would have to cross the border to Canada this weekend, and now it’s going to potentially cost the Husqvarna team a championship. I’ve heard that this responsibility falls on the rider’s shoulders solely. I don’t condone illegal activity, but if it were me wearing the red plate and I whiffed on my paperwork, I’d stuff myself into one of the parts compartments on the semi and pop out when it parked in the pits. And curiously enough, Christophe Pourcel had some type of random injury this week that will apparently heal in exactly one week. Huh? Do you really mean that the Frenchman’s visa is also out of order? This whole thing is really a head-scratcher for me, but it’s devastating for Davalos and his team.
Jason Thomas: Blame Canada, blame Canada! Okay, so even though the South Park song is awesome, I know this isn’t Canada’s fault. I actually love Canada and am thrilled it’s back on the schedule. As for this debacle with the Rockstar Husqvarna team, it’s a shame that this wasn’t handled properly. Davalos has admitted that things aren’t kosher with his visa and he’s scared to get stuck here, but Pourcel claims he suffered a 7- to 10-day « injury » and will miss this race as well? I don’t happen to believe that and think he is in the same boat as Davalos, but that’s my personal opinion and mine alone. In any case, it’s a shame for both of these riders, as they were having success in their own respective classes—and for Davalos particularly, because he has essentially forfeited any chance at this title. As frustrating as it is for me being involved on a sponsor level, I can’t even imagine how frustrating it has to be for team owner Bobby Hewitt. These teams work day and night to compete, and to give up the ghost in this fashion has to be tough.
Admittedly, I don’t know the exact details of what it takes to process the paperwork for these guys, but I do know that the schedule has been out for a long time, and it’s their job as professionals to have this in order. After Dean Wilson’s 2010 disaster, one would think this would be glaringly important. It is tough to understand how this could happen, but I’m sure no one is more devastated than Davalos. Where’s a trustworthy, upstanding human trafficker when you need one? »
