MotoGP Farce

[chris2004]

Any MotoGP fans here who saw the last race on Sunday. A big bust up between Marquez and Rossi.  My feeling is that Marquez was to blame, he was spoiling for a fight the whole race and obviously trying to block Rossi so Lorenzo would win the championship. In the end Rossi was penalised for Marquez's stupidity and now we have no shoot out in the final race. Are the stewards all Spanish?

Rossi hit Marquez. Period.He didn´t anything ilegal, so, it´s stupid to blame Marquez.

Yes, Marquez was deliberately slowing rossi to let his spanish mate get a good lead. Hope rossi gets enuff points in the last race to win and spite them all

If you know something about Marquez, he´s tremendously ambitious. Rossi was his idol, and he always want to beat him. Didn´t you like to compete against your idol and beat him?. If you´re competitive the answer is YES. That´s not ilegal.

 

Rossi couldn´t resist his pressure and hit him. This is absolutely unacceptable.

 

And you blame Marquez. Strange logic.

Really, Marqueze had a very fast bike, probably faster than Rossi, so if he just wanted to beat rossi why go so slow? Why not go fast and also catch lorenzo and beat him as well?

You´re talking about Rossi, mate. He´s the best pilot of all time. It´s not so easy to take him behind.  

 

Anyway, if you were right, you can´t put both behaviours at same level. Take another pilot to the ground is the worst thing you can do in a race. If you´re not able to resist preassure you don´t deserve to win the championship.

Rossi lost his cool and made a bad judgement, it's gamesmanship on Marqueze behalf and they both lost out. But happens in all sport

Marquez didn't lose out. He had no chance in the Championship anyway. He got what he wanted which was to ruin Rossi's chances of winning. A poor sportsman.

I like Rossi a lot, but that was a shitty move on his part
