Rossi never changed his line until Marquez made contact.

Rubbish. Dont just watch the video that shows from the contact ( which is what all the boppers are using ). Watch the lead into the corner video. Whether its his normal line or not rossi goes so wide it looks like an invite to go through. Then bam he hits Marc. In the side.

Either you're trolling and you've been watching racing while being very ignorant to what you're actually looking at. The standard racing line has a wide entry, hit the apex, then accelerate out to the edge of the track. That effectively gives you the widest radius for the corner. What you seem to have expected from Rossi was for him to enter wide, completely blow the apex and stay wide, hit the brakes to not fly off track, then get back on the throttle.

Yes, anyone who disagrees with your obviously always correct interpretation of events must be trolling. And you wonder why you are counted as a member of a quasi-religious cult.

The problem is not any interpretation of this particular incident, but that Rossi, you and other Rossi fans including Schwantz have argued the diametric opposite when the circumstances were reversed, including on one occasion when Rossi admitted to having deliberately ridden illegally.

You need professional help to get you out of the year 2015. You've missed 3 years of life.

Nothing so mundane as an actual argument from you, comme d’habitude.

Even if by some freak chance you were actually correct, I would still be well in advance of you, given you seem to think it is still 2009, or more to the point 2002 when Valentino was “racing” Max et al on a Honda 990.

So the guys clinging to the memory of what Rossi was when he was a 25 year old, as he attempts at age 39 to take out yet another rival by off-track means, this time a guy who actually may be as good as he was at age 25 and has (or had) some chance of surpassing his overall record, are the unjaded good guys? .

Funny since Schwantz was the one who did a let me by or crash incident at Hockenheim 1991. He nearly lost it under the heavy braking coming into the stadium section and Rainey had to avoid him lest being taken out by a rider who was struggling to keep the rear end of the bike in line.

I love the way couch-racers call actual racers ignorant of racing.

Weak Tea Part ll

One of the eminently defining aspects of bopperism is intellectual laziness.

Jums already shown Schwantz ridiculous bias in this thread but anyone who has seen any videos involving Schwantz and Rossi would know to take his opinion regarding anything to do with Rossi with a grain of salt.
