And I simply said you should get out of your moms basement? How is that an attack but your recycled Austin comment not? Yes recycled. Yes. You use it every time. Just what you accuse me of. See a pattern here?
Is that the first time you've used the Vagisil comment? No. You use it all the time.
But at least you didn't accuse me of being a 13 year old boy this time. After all. I'm one of the few folks that uses his real name(ish) steve is always taken. Uses an actual pic of himself. And has met more than a few folks face to face on this forum.

1 Not sure, his leg moved but the video angle isn't really showing enough to prove if it was a kick or a reaction to Rossi leaning on him.
2 I do think he should have been penalised for the run off track that he made, he cut the corner and lost no time whatsoever, imo it was a let off.

So Rossi shouldn't have won Laguna Seca 2008?

So there's a secret WhatsApp MotoGP Forum chat going on?

What's that about?

Let's not turn this into a game of string telephone, where we assume stuff. I simply asked Lil Red a curious question why he wanted Shov to post his race opinion about Zarco on whatsApp since I'd like to get his take given he's close to the paddock.

That race was won by illegal means according to Rossi's new standard. Not to mention, the tactic he accuses Marc of using at Sepang 15 was...well, apparently "this is 'not' racing".

The racing on Sunday was hard but fair. Marc was in one of his manic modes where he seemed absolutely desperate to get past the man in front as soon as possible. With a little bit of patience he could have got second.

Agree Rossi wasn't quick enough to catch up to him and Cal and once he was in front of Cal there is no way he was reeling Vinaeles in. Should've waited for the right moment.

......my immediate impression was that Rossi just rode into Sete.

Probably Jerez 2005 and Sepang 2015 are the only unequivocally dirty moves of Rossi's rather long career though. Most of my current animus against him is because of off-track stuff.

"just rode into Sete", and kept pushing until Sete was off the track. I would laugh, except I really didn't find it funny. I will NOT start a diatribe of evidence against Rossi. But there are many more dirty moves by the little Italian Cherub.

In case anyone gives a damn, I have actually been to Rossi's Club House in Italy. I had a fun time. I can let a lot of stuff go. I just want everyone to be treated the same, really. And Rossi gets a pass, way too many times in my opinion.
 
If Rossi comes out shooting his mouth off at Misano, won't he be bound by the new rules about bringing the sport into disrepute?
By that standard he'll be leaving himself open to a penalty himself.
Surely any accusations and allegations about a kick will be submitted by Jarvis, hence isolating Rossi from any criticism and protecting his image as an all round good guy?

Hahaha, Yamfan, the rules do NOT apply to Rossi. That ........ penalty on Zarco reaffirmed that rules are only for everyone EXCEPT The ONE.

Zarco was given a ride through, but because it was too late in the race, they assessed a 30 sec penalty was equal to a ride through, resulting in zero points scored for Zarco. Nice way of tightening up the championship. This was for a RACING INCIDENT, not a deliberate malicious maneuver to eliminate a fellow competitor. Lowes said, if I didn't score any points, neither should Zarco. Except, Zarco's move was not malicious nor intended to eliminate Lowes. Race Direction said to defend their decision not to issue a ride through to Rossi at Sepang (defended by our fearless media) that they had to consider the fact Rossi was a points leader "the impact on the championship"). Rossi was not only issued no points penalty for that race, but was allowed to KEEP his 16 points! What do you think of that Mr. Lowes? Correct me if I'm wrong, isn't Zarco the points leader? Uhm, no such consideration for Zarco? Hey, make him start from the back at Misano, give him his points back for Silverstone, right? Wasn't that the precedent Race Direction set? The double standard applied should be front page scandal. Our fearless GP media should be asking the riders in the press conference their thoughts on such a glaring double standard being applied. They should be calling Race Direction on the carpet. But as usual, they're chickenshit.

RULES DON'T APPLY TO ROSSI.

I agree with this, apart from the last bit, just to add, they also set a precedent with Iannone earlier this year making him start from the back, that penalty for Zarco was ridiculous, as you say there was no malicious intent, just got his braking point wrong.

WTF


Whoever high jacked Daniboy's account, give it back.

Never say never. Why, even if you are presented solid evidence of this, you won't agreed? Isn't this a rigid thinking? Birdman posted a link recently, and this quote is from that article:

Dorna CEO Carmelo Ezpeleta has appointed retired GP star Loris Capirossi as a sort of special tire investigator. I was especially interested in the following part of Capirossi’s remarks: “There is a problem with the serial number, as well; the number can tell you when tires built. A tire that was built two years ago could not go as fast as one week ago…. Some riders have a new tire and a few others old. It’s not good, which should be repaired. I want the last rider to have the same possibilities of the first.”

It`s not conspiracy if it`s status quo, right?
