I am a long time fan of Supercross, but this year I have really been cracking down on the rules. I have learned a lot from going to my local track, and talking to riders, and here on yahoo answers, its great here!
On April 12, Chad Reed (#22) wrecked in dirt bike on a table top, and broke his scapula. He was able to place 12/21 in the Main Event, which was pretty surprising to me.
I didnt understand why he was able to race the Main, because he only raced 2 laps in the Heat, and didnt get top 2 in LCQ. The announcers on SpeedTV kept talking about Chad Reed taking a "provisional".
Can someone explain a provisional to me and why Reed was able to race in the main.
(Im glad he was able to, I just dont know how...)
Thanks in Advance
