1: Leading Rossi at the time.
2: (It pains me to say) leading Stoner at the time.
3: I agree both Lorenzo and Marquez being faster over the last 3 races influenced the championship, as riders being faster not uncommonly does.

2010:
1. Lorenzo 383
2. Pedrosa 245

2012
1. Lorenzo 350
2. Pedrosa 332

2015:
1. Lorenzo 330
2. Rossi 325

Numbers don't lie my friend. Tell me, how does it feel to be so enraged by this rather trivial matter than you feel compelled to continually post topics about it on a forum long after the event?

Oh, edit to add:

2009 Rossi wins because Stoner had lactose intolerance..odd?
 
Wait I love how he posts, then doesn't say ANYTHING.

Oh .........
We've been inundated with Rossi fans since they spent their wads in here a week+ back.
Look at them pouring in
Look at the superbly reasoned posts.

Now, where is Talps?
 
I'm a diehard Rossi fan and even I am sick of this nonsense. Stuff happens in racing, and our favorites don't always win.

Why can't people move on and look forward to the possibilities of 2016? Should be an exciting year with the new tires, engine software, bikes, etc.

The bottom line is YES, I'm disappointed Rossi didn't win, but it has NO effect on my life whatsoever. I'm still living and breathing lol.

I'm not sure Lorenzo couldn't win if Rossi didn't break his ankle.

Lorenzo seemed faster than Rossi and even if Rossi didn't break his ankle my bet would still be on Lorenzo .

Moreover, incidents are part of racing, sometimes a rider might benefit from others falling sometimes you loose championship by losing (in 2013 Lorenzo lost one because of it..).

My impression is that in the last 6 years Lorenzo has been overall the fastest. He's not mentally extremely strong and he doesn't look as a fine strategist, but overall he has been consistently the fastest pilot on the circus.

That's because your one of the few reasonable fans of VR. The rest of the horde are just following they're never say or do wrong diety and whatever he says or does is gospel.
