2:41 PM This is a rerun from much earlier this afternoon. There was a problem with the parings in the computer and then the tree malfunctioned.

It's over quickly, as Lewis is WAY early. He compounds his problems when the bike gets out of shape and kicks the 330 foot reflector into the right lane, almost hitting Phillips. Matt Hines will have lane choice over Phillips next round.
