I have refrained from replying to this thread untill I had time to check this out.
I have all last years races on my hard drive except this one (I deleted it as a mark of respect to Tomi).
However I have a friend whom still has it on his. I contacted him last night & asked him to review the end of the race & see if theres any truth to the accusation towards the BBC. Whom I must stress I have my own grievences with regarding moto gp.
To what I can work out after a phone conversation last night is:
Firstly all the commentators were in a state of shock, their voice tones were significantly different after the accident.
Secondly the first thing that was said from the said commentators was a message of condolence to the family of Tomi & how all in moto gp would miss him.
Regarding Mr Parrish. yes he did speak of scotts injuries but not excesively & he also spent roughly the same time speaking about de angelis who was actually the first person to hit Tomi.
After reading the attachment from Mr Shupe I also noticed it was only posted 15 hours ago. Are you & that poster one in the same?
Anyway my conclusion is that you have some sort of grievence towards Parrish & the only reason you appeared here is because no other site will tollerate your drivel.
As much as I would like to see Parish hung high by the ...... I affraid your accusations appear unjust & this will not be the time.
I will be reviewing the after race talk later today & if my opinion is changed after watching it first hand it shall be posted forthwith.
I also must hasten to add that the BBC paid a fine tribute to Tomi at the sports personality of the year as they did to all fallen sportsmen of the year. I know this is fact because it actually brought a tear to my eye.
Im sorry but that is a load of nonsense I can clearly remember Steve Parrish clearly being more concerned for Scott Redding than showing any sympathy towards Shoya.
