Just watched the interview with Suzi Perry on btsport. Obviously, in his wee world, he did nothing wrong at all.

He clearly never had any intention of letting go of it. It's going to become his built-in excuse for being unable to get that 8th title.

GP is the only major sport I've seen that counts lesser titles.
For as ...... up as F1 is these days, they don't count GP2 titles, F3 titles, or whatever else towards the running tally of world championships.

Did you notice immediately after when observing how this has divided opinion in the paddock the presentation team mentioned that not all journalists backed Rossi - naming Oxley as one of the few to call him out at the time and express the view that Marquez was not in the wrong. As recall this was his view in respect of both PI and Sepang.
Because in the old days the best riders would compete in the lower capacity classes as well as the 500cc class, that only really started to change in the 70's with the last dual world champion being 1985 as the smaller bikes became classes to nurture younger riders on their way to the premier class.

Whatever helps him sleep at night. Him being within 5 points of Lorenzo was a ....... miracle that he should be thankful for considering how dominant Lorenzo's numbers were over his. Lorenzo was the superior performer and his mistakes were the only reason Rossi was in play. Get over it you whiney little ......
****still to come *** Rossi at Motegi this year
"I think at Aragon Lorenzo was hanging back, and then overtook me and is messing with my championship with Marquez"
Silly ..... Desperate man, all the money he has at his age and yet he pathetically tries to win a 8th title to satisfy his ego, then blames everyone else when it doesn't happen

All you lot whinging like Rossi
Yes how the tables have turned from the days of copious whinging about Stoner's whinging.
I think you perhaps overlook that Rossi continues to repeat allegations that his 2 major opponents are cheats, fairly unprecedented in the annals of motogp whinging to my knowledge.

Ah yes. It's mind boggling how Rossi is exempt from the rules. "The Rossi Rule" I think someone here once called it.
He copped a lot of flak and not much support in the comments on the article which was linked.

I am actually coming to appreciate if not the views of Rossi fanboys the perspective of his true fans like DB, and J4rn0 when he still posted.
VR fairly clearly does not have much perspective on all this and probably isn't just being manipulative and malicious because he can be or because it is his habit. I think he does risk his reputation now as DB says and whatever else he may be he is an all time great as a rider and everyone would have to acknowledge he is riding remarkably well even now if this controversy was absent.
