I didnt really get the feeling during the race that Marquez is protecting Lorenzo, but now that I think about it he was always behind him at least in the last laps and not once did he try to overtake him, yet when Pedrosa overtook him, all of a sudden Marquez gets all racey.
No he did not. Lorenzo just was the fastest man.
What do you have to say about the way riders like Petrucci and Dovioso just let Rossi pass ? Is that normal to you ? Oh wait, they should not bother Rossi because Rossi could win the championship and they not. Well with that same rule Pedrosa and Marquez are not allowed to fight Lorenzo ... ?

Rossi was dead right about marquez with lorenzo. Today proved that as marquez watched lorenzo back. I used to have a lot of respect for this kid but not anymore and hope Honda have something to say. Can't take any thing away from rossi he did all he could. Massive congratulations to Danny Kent today you had me on the edge of my chair.
Lorenzo himself even said after the race that they are all Spaniards so of course Marc and Dani would rather see him win. To think they weren't protecting him is ignorant at this point. And yes, maybe a few riders gave Rossi an easy pass, but he still battled quite a few others and came from 25th to 4th. He will always be a legend, whereas Lorenzo will just be another great rider.
Yes, I'm a huge fan of Rossi and yes I'm disappointed, but it was still a thrilling race! Looking forward to the 2016 season!

"No he did not. Lorenzo just was the fastest man."
Yes .. he did, Marc not even try to get a first position. yet when pedrosa took over him.. as you all seen that Marc was strike back again a second place juz as fast but again not for the first place...
"What do you have to say about the way riders like Petrucci and Dovioso just let Rossi pass ? Is that normal to you ?"
it was normal.. this year is belong to movistar Yamaha and Repsol Honda bikes... which means the other bikes were not competitive enough even for the podium. unless, the competition goes rain.... and I know Ducati is good but in some circuits but not enough yet. what am saying is Rossi might easily to get Petrucci, and for Dovioso might be hard for the straight but not in turns, and that's the fact of this year motogp.
"Oh wait, they should not bother Rossi because Rossi could win the championship and they not. Well with that same rule Pedrosa and Marquez are not allowed to fight Lorenzo ... ?"
Marc supposed to try being a leader in the race, at least get once opportunity to take over. In the history of Marc's motogp race, it never happen that Marc love being a second place the whole race while the gap between marc and the First place was so close.. it is weird but that's happened. well anyway, pedrosa gently showed being a true rider.. u know he tried to be the best even at the end he lost for the winner of Valencia motogp... once again, not for Marc.. I did not see any show competition between Marc and Lorenzo at Valencia but I did see a duck follow a mother..

Lorenzo is a title contender and Marquez was out. He should make it easy for him. Even Rossi admits that this is how racing should be in the last races of the season.
No, he did not. He tried a few times but he couldn't find a way to pass Lorenzo. You can't compare Pedrosa with Lorenzo. That's silly. Pedrosa is known for being a ..... on the bike. Overtaking Lorenzo is much harder than overtaking Pedrosa.
It doesn't matter. Petrucci should give Rossi a fight. Not to almost commit suicide when he sees Rossi so Rossi doesn't lose to much time. That's what is racing all about. Just like Marquez was pushing Lorenzo's the complete race. That is what racing should be like.
That's your interpretation of the facts. Marquez said he did all he could for winning but he couldn't. Lorenzo was slightly too fast for him. And this is also my interpretation of the facts.
Rossi should have been blackflagged previous race for taking out Marquez.
GraciasMarquez, no ...... is going to listen to a word you say because 1) you're clearly blinded by your love of Marquez and 2) you talk A LOT of ..... Fact!

have u seen japan motogp 2015? i guess u did.. so who's ..... now? well Pedrosa been better in the last seasons of this year motogp and he is true rider with no compromise during competition

I agree with u that Marc was pushing Lorenzo 'til the end of the race but "Pushing" not fighting means nothing... Well Petrucci could give a fight with rossi if he had the right bike so let's pray for the good bike to Petrucci in the next year... anyway if Petrucci gave a racing line for rossi so what's the different with Marc in Sepang? he let Lorenzo passed him easily but not for Rossi... Marc supposed to catch Lorenzo and take over again as he was the fastest between them in previous tests before race begin, not playing around for the 3th podium...

I dont think he helped out, and thats been honest unless Lorenzo had a one off special tyre to quailfy he rode the bike and broke the track records, I am not a fan of any one person, I like Bike racing MX, Speedway, BSB all sorts, I have raced on and off for 40 years and at all levels, But not once have I heard a rider should not race others that are running for a title,By that comment only 2 riders should be racing and the rest should follow, my podium is mine I am not giving that away for anyone, but what I dont understand is Lorenzo Overtakes under a waved yellow no penatlies, Race control said Marc was partly to blame for Rossis reaction No penatlies, and to be honest once Repsol one of the biggest sponsor said what they did Rossi had no chance, Companies should not get involved, but they are spainish and its now a spainish company who owns it, so a spainish rider will have a advantage,Hence 5 works riders out of 8 are Spainish, someone like Bradley Smith will never get a look in he is not the right Nationality, Moto gp is a business Hence they did what Repsol wanted, Very sad year for Moto GP But like real bike racing fans I will still watch it.
A crying shame. Watching Rossi v Lorenzo over the last 3 races would've been gripping but for Marquez who demonstrated complete immaturity in pursuing a vendetta against his apparent "hero". If what goes around...... Marquez will be the loser in the long run. As for Lorenzo - great rider, shame about the "unfortunate" attitude.
