I disagree, I think its Bostrom's fault for not closing the line. Both of the lappers got the blue flag in turn 13 and 14. They both ran wide going into 15. Plenty of room for Bostrom to hug the inside and for Josh to go around the outside. I like both riders. Riden with Josh at Jennings. If its Yamaha I'm happy.

If bostrom didnt have great vision like he does and not close the door both josh and ben would have went down because josh was going on balls too the wall with a all or nothing mentality...

I was originally a little dismayed the backmarker was a factor in the end, but in the replay it looked like Bostrom tryed to gamble and beat that back marker through the penultimate corner. In the end the pass wasn't there and he lost a bit through that corner.
All credit to Josh - the space was there and he put his R6 in there clean. Another 2 feet wider on that track though and Bostrom would have out-dragged Josh to the line. He had that corner squared off on the outside of Josh but had to cut the throttle when he ran out of track.
In the end I like Bostrom more, but I also like josh. Besides, it's a Yamaha 1-2. I'm just grateful for some entertaining racing!

You are correct, but so id Macke, Bos had plenty of room to take the right line but he didnt, but also if he had Josh prob woudl of taken them both out, he even said that in the interview, that he was gonna make the turn or take them both out. not on purpose was just trying to win,
it was a great race though

again i think that equates back to bostroms experience. he was that age and just like josh at one point. and he would have gone bonsai into a turn just like that. i think he knew josh had the mentality of all or nothing and bostrom wanted to finish
