No, in Argentina 2015 MM tried to fight back after Rossi safely passed him. That was MM's fault to put himself in a bad position to make contact with Rossi's rear tire.

Thanks. I guess I am kind of an arse, in that I let myself get sucked into the snakepit with trolls again. Doh! Oh well, it's a new day.

How long have you been watching racing? You understand that the rider in front has line preference right? Rossi safely passed Marquez, Marquez attempted to fight and regain the position, but Rossi had to set up for the next corner and he had every right to do so since he was the lead rider. Marquez was at fault for that contact since he didn't yield to the lead rider and again... not safely passing.
Rossi cleaned his clock. Marquez rammed him and Rossi took him out.

That's why the brainless Rossi-Trolls are getting increasingly malicious these days. For wanks who live vicariously through a guy who doesn't know they're even alive, Rossi's demise is like the End Of Days. No rapture for these ......
That is exactly what i just said was my own opinion, it is others who have speculated that there was malfeasance on Rossi’s part, apparently including MM’s own Puig (or Puig and Uccio combined) equivalent in Alzamora, but unlike Rossi not by MM himself at least publicly.
No doubt MM should have waited for the next straight or whatever, and he may have been overwrought because of the circumstances of the race and the history between Rossi and him likely came into it just as with Rossi and Stoner at Jerez 2011, but are you seriously suggesting Rossi was a threat to MM on that lap let alone in the race?.

Sorry M8, doesn't count for much if he ate up his tires doing it and ended up miles away from the podium. He reminds me (in a sort of sad, discount, remainders shelf kind of way) of Ron Haslam who used to make those brilliant starts but was rarely able to follow them up with a good ending.
And from a spectator's point of view, Dovi (even if he had not won as many races as he did) would still be counted as the high-value rider as he regularly came from behind and gave us some of the best duels in years whilst trading paint with Marquez who's well on his way to being one of the most legendary riders since Hailwood.

No argument from me. MM rode like an .... Re: antipathy towards Vale, it's to be expected. He's done his fair share of jerk-off .... and got away with it and people have been waiting a long time for him to get some payback.

I dont know why you guys are saying Marc should have waited. That onboard video clearly shows that it looked like rossi was letting him through. Im telling you that it was a lot more sinister than folk are accepting.

The Rossi minions take thy bidding from thy master.
If it was a move that was intentional and brings the sport into disrepute, so it is written and so shall it be done.
I'll never stop laughing at Rossi's dive off the bike to oversell the contact. Surprised he didn't fake a heart attack so Uccio could run down the pit lane to give some good old mouth-on-mouth to bring him back to life.

Are you referring to Ago?
He is a 16 ( using your math ) time world champion.
Which is nothing compared to my 41+ CWC's
( couch world championships )
As a fellow world champion I dont often agree with Ago .... but I do on this one.
The onboard footage did make it look like there was plenty of space there.
Amusing that there is a direct parallel, a much more egregious error when Rossi actually took out another rider who was a genuine contender for both the race and title by not even making a corner in much worse conditions, with the other party demonised for a much less florid reaction to an apology delivered without benefit of helmet removal by the apologiser, and followed by virtually zero further bitching by the wronged rider in post race press conferences.

Have you ever been broadsided on a corner and pushed off the track onto wet grass? On a slick tyre too. I'll give you a clue, the answer contains 2 letters.

And when you look at the broadcast footage it looks like rossi is either going wide or leaving Marc room to pass. Then he veers fsst for the space he left.
To be honest when it was happening I thought "wow rossis having a slack day hes letting him through!" Then bam he changes line.
