MotoGP

Firstly LWB , Rossi was not docked 3 points . MotoGP has a penalty points system in place . Rossi now has 4 penalty points so has to start at the back of the grid .

I am a Rossi fan , however he started this whole thing off by having a go at Marques in the press conference .

Maybe he should have kept his rant till after he had won the title .

Now he has p...ed Marques off , who is certainly faster than Rossi , albeit he has been inconsistent this season .

Rossi now has to battle 2 riders who are , in dry conditions , mostly faster than him .

Hope he can still pull this rabbit out of the hat , but it is highly unlikly now .

He certainly brings more to MotoGP that probarbly all other riders combined , but I feel what he did yesterday was very unsporting , and also quite UnRossi like .

Anyway , Roll on Valencia .

Thanks for qualifying that, Popit. Makes me feel a bit better, but not much. 

 

If you have a look at the footage again, in slow mo, you see Marquez actually turning in to Rossi just before he goes down.

jeepers, steve. you had to dig deep for that one. Pretty much every person in the paddock has made that type of pass before...

Ok so where does the extra 4th point you talk of come from? 

According to the motogp website it is 3.

He had another point for a quali infringement at another race - "blocking" JL when he was "on a flying lap" but had already just qualified on pole

As we all our, no matter what team,person or rider we support.

 

But it's the ability to still be objective,well kind of anyway ????

 

Go vale go .

I just had a look at this again (even though it is all irrelevant as stewards have made the ruling), you can clearly see MM making contact on Rossi, and then triping over. If you look at Rossi's knee, you can clearly see it move closer to the bike from when it gets hit, then MM falls over,could it not be that MM dont know how to stay  on a bike( looking at his record this year).

 

Here is the best quality video i could find

100%. As I said earlier, MM turned in on VR. VR reacted by pushing him away. But it's now done. Season is basically over unless VR can ride from the back to 2nd, regardless then of where JL finishes. A tall ask.

MM was being a prize ****. he was going all out to disrupt Rossi. he had no interest in the race. 

 

Maybe karma will smile on us in  weeks and one of the italians will take out Whore hey

 

Yes I am bitter.
