Hacking has been suspended indefinately for throwing a hissy-fit Sunday in the media centre after post race interviews. "No premier sporting organization would tolerate, whether it be motorsports or major league stick and ball sports, the level of disrespectful, profane and vulgar language in a public forum as demonstrated by Jamie Hacking ... . His behavior was totally disrespectful to the media, his competitors and the sport of motorcycle racing in general".
So what happened? ...
Looks like Hacking was already a little peeved at something at the beginning of the race 2 interviews, then when third place diSalvo was being interviewed, Jamie started talking to Danny Eslick. Jason shot Hacking a "Hey! I'm doing a little interview over here!" Then when Hacking and Eslick started talking again:
DiSalvo: "Hey, did I talk during your thing? Did I? Answer my question."
Hacking: "Do you have a microphone? They can hear you."
DiSalvo: "Let's show a little respect here."
Hacking: "I lost all respect for you a long time ago."
DiSalvo: "I never had any for you."
The interview ended with the air full of static and apparently after the cameras were turned off, Hacking left the media centre cursing.
Here's the interview:
