I am well aware of what you are doing, which is arguing for the fun of it, which is what most of those you oppose are also doing.

I was merely pointing out the weakness of your case in terms of most of what you have argued on this thread ie drawing moral equivalence between Suzuki remarking on a tow from a future team-mate being involved in Rossi's pole by a small margin at Mugello, and the lack of comment about a pole won by 0.716 seconds by someone who is not Rossi's future team-mate next year at Assen, of taking issue with a few posters on here for "hating" Rossi when in the wider world actual hatred of MM and Lorenzo including cheering of crashing by them is massively greater, and most of all calling posters on here guilty of being conspiracy theorists when your boy has alleged a massive conspiracy to the world press, and has far from withdrawn said allegations. Unless and until he does, those of your allegiance are not in much of a position to complain about conspiracy theories I wouldn't have thought.

I do have occasional things with which I take genuine umbrage, questioning the courage or toughness of a man of a man who raced 2 days after having a clavicular fracture plated being one of them, although that was more Paps than you.

My opinion is still that Suzuki had a weak complaint. Vinales was able to get to the top of the time sheets in the first half of Q2 while following Rossi. They swapped positions for the 2nd half and Rossi was able to get to the top of the time sheets, however they timed it so Vinales still had time to get in another lap to attempt to beat Rossi's time. Vinales got very close to getting pole, but I imagine the goal between MV and VR was to make sure they both got front row starts. Goal accomplished. The remaining front row position went to Iannone who by far was the worst offender (if we are to consider slipstreaming in qualifying to be wrong) since he slipstreamed JL the entire session even though JL made it crystal clear he didn't want him there.

Suzuki was just sour they missed their first pole position by such a small margin. If the time Vinales set while he followed Rossi was good enough for pole, Suzuki would not have issued a single complaint! Perhaps Suzuki should've been more focused on inspecting Vinales' bike so they could have caught the electrical problem that would ruin his race start.

(EDIT I read the Game of Thrones books as they came out, and amusingly was asked on visits to the USA 15 years ago why I was reading such stupid long books. In general the show has been better than the books, although I am not sure in more ways than one about where it is all going now with the show advancing past the books. Jumkie was a big GOT fan btw.)

I figured Junkie was a GOT fan.

Sure, this may well be so, but my point was that it was Suzuki who raised the question of the tow at Mugello, while you were taking to task posters on here presumably including me for not raising a tow being involved in regard to Dovi's pole at Assen which was by a large margin, didn't involve future but not current team-mates and concerning which Yamaha made no comment.

See my edit to my last post. I am a big GOT fan and read the books as they came out long before the show, and Jumkie was (probably still is) an avid watcher of the show as well, which all goes to show our commonalities are likely much greater than our differences, as most have discovered when they have actually met at races, even people who have been foes on the forum.

So you seem to believe that there was collusion then?

I went back and watched the session. After Vinales got up to 2nd place following Rossi, he immediately pitted but Rossi stayed out for another lap. However they left the pits together the 2nd time and Dillon mentioned it on the broadcast to draw attention to them switching their order.

Wait a minute, you participate on a GOT forum but you haven't watched the season finale and you somehow manage to get on the internet and dodge spoilers?
 
Why no one mention why Marquez was not penalise for missing the chicane and going through the gravel? He was not even close to contact with Dani. I .... this Dorna ........ man, favoring Marquez. Enough!

Because that was in warmup not a race

BTW, what do you think of the fact (yep, fact that has been agreed by people from all sides of the yellow divide) that VR's rain light was NOT illuminated at the start of the race as mandated by the declaration of a wet race?

Dude, he's avoiding the HBO because he's a book worm. He's waiting for RR to finish the last book. Which I'm told there is a better chance that Rossi will apologize for being a .... at Sepang than for RR to finish writing. Ha!

It was off, big deal. There is no rule that says a penalty will result. You think they should have removed him from the track 2 race ban at least? :spin: Many sociopaths on this forum were furious when race was stopped and wanted it to continue.

Yeah, that book will not be finished anytime soon. But, he has to avoid more than HBO to not be aware of what's been happening in the tv series. There's spoilers in headlines all over the place.
