Rossi wasn't at fault. It was a boxing match on the track. Let's not forget years ago I think in 250s when leading bikes almost stopped because no one wanted to lead the race. No different. And Rossi didn't push marques off the track. No where near edge when he came off. Yes on the marbles but only going slow at that point. All media hype. Great racing until then tho.
 
Yes there was contact with MM's helmet and VR's knee, however for the response to be a kick is unwarranted.
 
Can you concentrate on the subject at hand now? Or his Haga too much of a distraction for you as well? Your next reply: "OMG, Haga couldn't ride that Duc like he did the R7... you don't know ...... do some research!"

Our entire argument happened because you have no idea what happen in Jerez 2011 look it up and read my post again. Way to change you avatar. Thanks for proving you had no idea what it meant.
 
Just for the sake of discussion, if MM was looking to hold up VR, does that warrant kicking MM off of his bike? Because what people are essentially doing is now advocating for turning MotoGP into a full-on contact sport where someone could get killed because of a perception of holding up another rider.

You guys need to consider what you're actually opening a door too when you use the "MM was holding him up argument."

Basically you are making it acceptable for any rider who feels it is his god given right to get past another rider, to punt that rider because they can just claim they were being intentionally held up.

No, I don't think MM holding up VR justifies Rossi's response... however I understand that it would've pushed Rossi over the edge and he snapped. Think if the situation was reversed and MM was almost neck and neck with J Lo for the championship and Rossi was purposely holding him up. What do you picture MM doing?
 
Jorge Lorenzo 2015 champion.


DISQUALIFIED & SUSPENDED, nothing less would be legitimate.

He did change it to my man Haga though. An inch of latitude is now in order. That inch will evaporate with his very next post I predict. Until then, cease and desist.

Except Valentino Rossi has been in the premier class for 15 years now, and in being a PROFESSIONAL should know how to deal with it. He doesn't have to like it, but to react is conduct unbecoming a professional.

This is the same guy who nearly torpedoed Stoner at Laguna 08 as 22 mentioned a few pages back, and then used the excuse of, "it's racing" when he saw Casey was pissed off. Basically it's another case of, the rules apply to everyone but Valentino.

good to see a fellow haga/rea worshipper out there!

Never forget I said I thought Lorenzo would win the title back at the halfway point of this season.

If it happens, just remember I believed in Jorge when no one else did. :p
 
According to Hodgson Jlo is in race direction yelling and screaming. ... oh and both Rossi and Marq in there to lol

Marc appears to be Jlos ..... as for some reason he rolls over and let's him by while having better pace.

JLo Didn't slag off Marquez and his family in the Thursday press conference. Rossi goaded Marquez and he didn't expect him to be pissed and fight back?

Lorenzo begging the FIM on the medias to gift him the title? Really? Wow.

I see the Rossi boppers are registering here in droves!

Ahh you are changing sides now Jum? ;)

Ya George didn't deserve any booing. He road a great race.

Exactly, bloke has been a class act this weekend.

My thoughts:

If Rossi DOESN'T get any penalty, it opens up the door for Marquez to do the same to him in Valencia and get away scot free, no? So Rossi is in trouble either way.

If such a thing happens in Valencia with MM taking out VR, I fully expect there to be a multi-race ban for MM in 2016.
