I remember very well having to defend MM93 in this very forum against regular accusations of him being an irresponsble and dangerous rider (dubbed "MurderMarc" by the ineffable Jum, go figure 
) and it is amusing -- but makes sense -- that those targeting Marquez back then are the same "lovers" of our sport who are now slandering the best motorcycle racer of the last two decades, Valentino Rossi.
No worries: forums are inevitably irrelevant and verbose, while MM93 and VR46 are genuinely great. These two tend to overshadow the rest of the field both in terms of skill and personality, so much so that their recent feud has completely consigned to oblivion the (now almost inevitable) 3rd title by Jorge Lorenzo. This can't be helped, poor Jorge. He'll plant his black flag at the side of the track while all cameras will be chasing Marquez and Rossi. They stole the show from him, once again.
Ah, and rest assured: Marquez and Rossi will make peace before long. Marquez will candidily confess that yes, he was angry at Rossi and perhaps targeted him on track a bit too much, and Rossi will concede that Marquez' feeling were understandable after all, his actions were perfectly legal, and too bad he lost his nerve.
Bring on 2016!
