Melandri throws barbs @ Rossi

Lorenzo was asked about the meaning of the "yellow" chair, he said the chair was "green". Does anybody have a pic of his celebration to check this out?



Marco Melandri had a pop at Jorge Lorenzo on his blog, saying that Jorge sitting on a yellow chair to celebrate his Le mans win was to show that he is dominating Rossi. When informed of this Jorge looked puzzled and said: "The chair was green." superbikeplanet
 
I'm curious what Rossi will do for a celebration when he wins at Mugello.

Take a dig at Lorenzo perhaps?

Get together with Simoncelli for a midget tossing contest?
 
Was Lorenzo saying Rossi's career is Drowning when he jumped in the pond at Jerez? I highly doubt it, I don't think the yellow chair had much to do with it. Marco is right about Rossi not going to Ducati , Valentino and Jeremy are already too late into their careers to try and develop a new bike, while Lorenzo and Spies would be very dangerous on the Fiat M1. I rather see the doctor behind the wheel of an F1 car myself



I'm not giving up hope on Rossi/ Ducati yet, but I do believe in Rossi/ Ferrari

I think Lorenzo is an arrogant little prick enjoying the benefit of Rossi's development work

No question he's a great rider, but in personality is more like that little turd Alonso

Marco could become a good blogger or something or remain as an "also started" in MotoGp

I agree, it does take a high level of skill to ride at the level he is at.....but it would be even more impressive if he was doing it on a bike that had struggled before. That bike has the last 2 titles. At least Stoner and Hadyen did not have last years title winning bike when they won. (this is if Lorenzo takes the title this year)
 
Well unless he was higly very pissed or otherwise out of it, that cannot be Marco Melandri the MGP rider, or he especially would never have said this:



Not because the red bikes aren't competitive; I actually think they are much more competitive than you think.





I think the whole thng must be a bit "tongue in cheek"

Like I said, I think that's pretty thin, it's not like he's pulling the head off a chicken (mascot that is) or setting a 46 flag on fire, kicking a stuffed Bulldog around the gravel. Which frankly is what I would do in his position. Either be direct or don't bother, a yellow chair, honestly?



I like your style
 
Lorenzo's a real talent and seems to know how to set up the bike well. Maybe developing the bike is a different story but the fact is he's beating rossi on the same bike. If this keeps up, it's only good for the fans =)



and the chair was green? then wtf was melandri talking about hahahaha
 
Jums is spot on, jl is increasing the pressure on himself. Marco sounds like he is stoned.......great rider but colour blind so it seems

hard to tell from the lighting. could be neon yellow or green. but if Lorenzo says its green, its green.
 
What is the purpose of Marco's comments anyway? I didn't think Jorge was being disrespectful.

Strange Indeed. I wonder what he hoped to achieve?
 
Looks yellow to me. That florescent type yellow that can look greenish at different angles.

Hahaha now u sound like the crazy one. That chair is no more yellow than u r thin compa. Its ....... green and Milandri is blind. That or hes doing a Mladin and throwing .... into the media to gain some attention.
 
i'd say it's green.



however...searching the net for "neon yellow" just to exactly see the difference with neon green...and i came across with this:

I think he is actually having a go at Esparago and Kalio with that chair!! or maybe even Kawasaki

The eating of popcorn is where he is being disrespectful to Rossi! Everyone knows that popcorn has butter salt and thats yellow.

And if you swap the letters of "popcorn" around and add two "s" and an "i", and discard a few others ..... . You get "rossi" !!
