Alessi Forced to Talk...

Mike Alessi had a great day at Hangtown, well at least a great second moto and it was enough to get third overall on the day and thereby making me look like a genius to the 165 people listening to the track PA in the morning when I "stamped" an Alessi podium with Rob Buydos. Alessi started the series off just the way he wanted to and after the race, he turned me down for an interview and said that he's not doing any interviews with anyone for a few rounds. Nothing personal and I didn't take it that way, it's his choice.

So if you're an Alessi fan and want to hear from him, you have to hope he makes the podium and then he's forced to go to the press conference and tell us about his race. Talking about it or not, he had a great race and Racer X transcribed the press conference for all of us to read.

As well, there's a Ryan Dungey interview in there as well. Too bad the lappers cost him at the end of the race, we might have been in for a run to the checkers with him and Stew.
