nw42 2,048 Posted October 22, 2016 That's the way to deal with cheating, hit em hard straight away, very unsporting of Hancock and he got what he deserved. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mark 1,497 Posted October 22, 2016 Hancock gets 2pts deducted for throwing a race. Disgraceful. How can Holder be given 3pts when he didn't earn them. Really bad for the sport. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Really bad for the sport.Then you could say the other two in the heat don't deserve the extra point given. Hancock guilty, no one else. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ytsejam 312 Posted October 22, 2016 What a dampner on Handcocks celebrations, being classed as a "cheat"!! What a stupid thing for him to do and well done to the officials for spotting it and acting upon it so quickly too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nw42 2,048 Posted October 22, 2016 He's a disgrace - and the whole world now knows it Well I wouldn't go that far but he's certainly let himself down just there. I doubt he will care in the long run but at least they didn't mess around with retrospective punishment and actually showed some teeth. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I hear what you say but Hancock threw the race to help a team mate. Clearly pre arranged Monster tactics. Penalise them both. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BWitcher 12,453 Posted October 22, 2016 Hancock is lucky this is speedway. In other sports you would face a long ban. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Steve0 5,517 Posted October 22, 2016 Well done for dealing with it as they did - there is no team in an individual event! It's a shame the world champion within a couple of races gets disqualified for cheating! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I doubt he will care in the long run but at least they didn't mess around with retrospective punishment and actually showed some teeth. Care about being called a cheat. Squeaky clean image ruined. I'd worry about it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Midland Red 2,383 Posted October 22, 2016 Did you know that every point's vital? Kelvin just said so, Sir Shouty said so earlier Must be true Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
