- Exactly, Very easy to sit in your sofa rewinding dozens of times to find criticism. Fact is Gery was in front and had the right to her line. It was silly/stupid/dangerous/suicidal but instinctive for Niwi to try to take advantage of outside momentum but expecting Gery to take a sharper slower corner to make way for her was naive. Demi did her attack perfectly, BEFORE the corner, seems to me Niwi was caught napping and accelerated in the wrong place out of panic. Had she been prepared for the attack BEFORE the corner, she could have stayed on the inside following Demi directly. Nobody forced her to go on the outside or knew she would go that way, especially those who were in front of her. Tough but fair.Mistermaumau09-08-2026
- Cutting Kasia off was not part of SDJ's plan, only having Gery move back between her and Demi was. It was the way that Gery did it, forcing Kasia to brake, that has caused the trouble. Demi was in full attack ahead, not on the radio instructing Gery.Hills3309-08-2026
- What is Demi about?? It was deliberate as Lars Boom confirmed, she knew it. So yes it was dirty but not illegal.abstractengineer09-08-2026
