Wiemer got exactly what he gave Sipes . I thought both were aggressive passes but were not dirty or intentional take-outs . I'm concerned with the number of serious injuries in SX this season and am glad there weren't any at this race with all the get offs . These are the best racers in the world and some of the best of all time , so when guys like super smooth , consistant Kdub , Musquin , Rattray , etc, are eating it I think maybe some changes for better safety should at least be considered . The speeds are so high and timing is ultra critical . These guys should be challenged but if they keep dropping like prom dresses , careers will be cut short . I like the sand sections that were added to some of the tracks this season . Remember when SX had water holes and even went up through the stands and outside the stadiums to come back in for a big drop away jump ? I loved those features and think they were great equalizers without beig too dangerous . It just seems to me that the riders used to race each other and now are riding to survive monster obstacles . It is exciting to watch for sure . Every step I take for the rest of my life will be painful due to racing injuries and almost everyone who has stayed with this sport for extended lengths of time has their share of aches , pains , and battle scars . I just don't want to see these exceptional young athletes needlessly crippled for my entertainment . Sorry for the mini rant , it's just my opinion .
