MotoGP: 2015 round 18 - Valencia (SPOILERS)

Very much so. The only thing I got from Jorge, is how English speakers speak so much slower than everyone else.
 
what the .... is dani saying in the press conference? I know he knows english, but that answer was ....... nonsense.


(he was asked what his thoughts are on the unwritten rule about riders not in the championship fight interfering with riders in a championship result)

he's really good at rambling.

Perhaps he should have pointed out that it's unwritten - so it's not a rule.

Besides, it's never been something your hero has observed.

And since only four riders are realistically in a shout for the title, perhaps it should apply from the moment the lights go green at Losail.

It's a racetrack - riders ride for themselves, they ride for their manufactures, they ride for their sponsors, their teams, their mechanics and they ride for their futures. In respect of this, I'd like to say that the world of Moto GP does not revolve around Valentino Rossi, but overwhelming evidence points to the fact that I'd be wrong.

This "debrief" reminded me of something you might see from a 3rd world interview of suspects under duress. Frankly it won't change any body's minds about anything we already believed before it.

I hope Dorna post it free. It wasn't as juicy as we might think because clearly the riders were told, by admissions, that the organizers told them not to talk about specific events and aftermath of Sepang.

I was wondering if during the "debrief" you could tell their teeth had been pulled this morning..

Reporters tried to get this out of them, the question being: "was this an order not to talk about the past", all 4 of them mentioned they had individually been summoned to speak with the organizers, specifically Vittoria and Carmelo, and all said it was expressed they not speak about the past but came short of saying it was an order, and added they preferred to focus and speak only about preparing for the race.
