Michelin® Australian Motorcycle GP 2016 Nicky Hayden extravaganza with spoilers

So he was instructed not to continue with the paranoia and he didn't like it. Ha ha, like a spoiled kid when parents don't give him candy. He is also probably tired since it is third week on the move...you know...since he is experienced and stuff :unsure:

He sure seemed upset about something. I also found it interesting when they brought up the dashboard thing. Rossi was in support of it and Vinales clearly wasn't thought, arguing that its too dangerous to take you eyes from the track.

Maybe a sign of things to come in 2017 between VR and MV

MM doesn't look too comfortable either...

I think marc put it perfectly by talking about them having a professional relationship. That's all they need and likely the best they'll ever have unless Rossi can admit he was wrong and apologise.

I agree. Non of these guys need to be best friends. They don't have to hang out. The less they see eachother the better.

Proffesional relationship is the safest for everyone. It is the same in every individual sport.

Nasty and childish gesture by VR there, squeezing MM's fingers together and clearly trying to hurt and intimidate him.
That trick is as old as the hills and will only serve to strengthen MM's resolve to humiliate VR on track.
I just hope VR isn't trying to lure him into round two, this .... should be forgotten. No one robbed anyone...

Having seen the way Marc is built I'm not so sure Rossi would win a battle of strength against Marc.

Absolutely, I'm convinced the only reason MM hasn't told VR to do one, is the abuse he'd get from the minions.

What's your view on this Dani? I'm surprised you've not tried to put a positive spin on VR's behaviour here [emoji1]

My view, not much really, I've shook hands and the other guys looked like that.

I guess it is preferable for Jarvis to say MM is too tough for mind games to be an option rather than concede his 9 times etc rider is somewhat deranged in regard to late season 2015 events.

I am inclined to take a less harsh view of Rossi and those events than I have done previously. Whatever Jarvis says about Rossi and "mind games" as I have said it is now fairly clear he genuinely believes in his version of events, and I now consider him to be irrational in regard to PI and Valencia 2015, and to have acted irrationally at Sepang 2015, rather than being actively malicious as I did previously. There also seems to be something of a groundswell of opinion against his version of events cf the recent Oxley article which pleases me and makes it less tough on MM and JL, although the former would appear to be tough enough himself to handle almost anything.

So you've really not zoomed in and seen VR clearly squeezing MM's fingers? His white knuckles are indicative of how hard he's trying to squeeze.
Are you telling me if someone did it to you, you wouldn't object?
Or are you merely choosing not to see VR's bad behaviour?

There is nothing to see. If MM didn't go palm to palm with VR for the handshake, then his fingers got squeezed a bit. You're trying to make something out of nothing.

I just don't think it's worth a big discussion, like I said it's happened during lots of handshakes I've had. Probably something to do with my profession lol.

I don't think so buddy, what's this profession then, mortician, funeral director, shop mannequin maker? [emoji1]
I've had a long career too, met and shaken hands with countless clients.
If I'd done what VR was doing to MM, they wouldn't have been clients for long...

Or they'd learn how to shake hands like a man.
