Andy Serling was just on Steve Byk's show saying he thought at the time that VR would be disqualified for a clear-cut foul.

Said he was "surprised" that he wasn't DQ'd.

Also said what i firmly believe - that there's no way of knowing if Vino Rosso would have won anyway if not for the foul. Enticed was coming back at him when Velazquez did what he did.

So, to me we need some consistency.

Either always let the first finisher stay up, no matter what, and only fine and suspend riders for fouls.
OR
A foul is a foul, and you come down. No more playing God by stewards and ruling based on what they think would have happened.

What do you think?.
