MotoGP: 2015 Round 17 - Shell Malaysia Motorcycle Grand Prix (SPOILERS)
Help Support MotoGP Forum:
If Valentino actually was to win a 10th title by popular vote, it does not seem to have occurred to these people this would rather diminish the other 9 titles, the talent and daring displayed in the winning of which being what made Valentino a legend and so popular in the first place.
The title of the thread is seeking donations to get 500k to pay Ianonne to knock Lorenzo (not MM) off his bike - https://www.reddit.com/r/motogp/comments/3q4rye/im_doing_a_collection_to_offer_500000_to_iannone/
Sure it is being treated as a joke by many but the OP was serious
The link I posted - click the MotoGP up the top left and just read the post titles - you want scarey, some of these are well that and then some

The immediate reactions after MM went down were horrifying.
I think though you can tell the difference between racing fans and whatever you want to call the contingent following VR. I think bopper is too nice now. Most RACING fans I know have all said VR was in the wrong on this, and that he should have been DQ'd for it...in particular because it is motorcycle racing where even some contact could result in a severe or fatal injury if things go wrong quickly.
Unfortunately, most of the people advocating that MM gets taken out, death threats, and so on, are not racing fans. If you are a racing fan you would know VR's move should have been really a DQ or something that would have eliminated him from winning that title.

Anyone got a link? I wanna sign it
It's probably a billion now, those investments.
That, or his savings have been ravaged by soaring healthcare costs.
Lets not forget that Rossi did this in light of him being the rider who killed Simoncelli ....on this very track.

Rossi believes he is untouchable. He bought into his own myth.
That's a guy who is a nutcase.

Rossi didn't contact Marc, it was the other way around. If Marc had chosen to not turn into Rossi and didn't crash... would Rossi simply running Marc wide be big news? Did Rossi risk Marc's life and well being by simply slowing him down to the edge of the track? Again, it was Marc that decided to take his chances with contact... he was not FORCED to hit Rossi and he wasn't hit by Rossi.

Very harsh, guys.
Hardly Rossi's fault that it was him and Edwards that were the first riders on scene a split second later with nowhere to go...
I hope you never have the misfortune to come across an accident in progress with no where to go and end up in this type of situation.
Happened to a mate of mine on the road 30 years ago... it changed him, plus he never rode a bike again.
Just wanted to clarify that, while I have never been any sort of Angel on this forum, I have never attacked or insulted anyone thru Private Messages. A lot of what we say on the forum is a front and shouldnt be taken too seriously. What we say thru Private messages can only be construed as direct and personal. I would never use it as my personal bully puppet
For years I and a few others on the forum have seen Keshav as a nasty and bitter person. He denies this again and again and proclimates that he is a purveyor of peace.
Here is the unprovoked PM he just sent me.. You decide what kind of person would write this
Meet the real Kesh
Why I don't care.
I have an extra second so: Maybe some, unlike yourself, aren't playing to the cheap seats for likes and replies. Maybe, some unlike yourself, have lives and aren't so lonely and pathetic that they have time to count my likes and replies (that is so sad and feeble). Maybe some unlike yourself, are here to discuss racing - which you still know nothing about. Maybe some, unlike you, aren't living in some mean-girl high school fantasy where you think you can break a person's spirit by not allowing them to sit at your table in the lunchroom. Maybe some here are not full of .... and don't pull lies out of their ... in order to try to taunt someone who knows you to be the most pitiful troll on the forum.
I really don't understand why you think I give a .... about you or anything you say you sad little canker sore.

Actually I think what Frack is saying, is that given Rossi had front row seats to his friend being killed, you would think he would have more respect for other riders given how quickly something can change. Instead he chooses to make a stand against Marc Marquez at Sepang International Circuit of all places, and puts MM at risk as a result.
What it tells you is that VR has learned precisely nothing about the virtue of clean racing.

People are wrongly penalized all the time. Rossi got a penalty because of how bad the incident looked. You have one rider running another wide and then the rider that was run wide went down. It's not until you really look at the incident closely that you can see that Rossi did nothing more than take a wider line while adjusting his speed to prevent Marc from turning into the corner. Ok, ROSSI IS GUILTY OF BLOCKING MARC. But his guilt ends there! Stop saying he HIT Marc. If Rossi went down after Marc turned into him you wouldn't give a .....
Look at it this way, Rossi is driving on a freeway and Marc is on an entrance ramp. Rossi refuses to change lanes, speed up, or slow down to allow Marc to merge. Marc decides he's not going to slow down and merge behind Rossi so he sideswipes Rossi, but ends up spinning out off the road. So yeah, Rossi's an ....... for blocking Marc, but ultimately it was Marc that decided to make contact... problem is he got the worst of the contact.
