Yeah, but I don't believe that for a second. Unless Rossi also misjudged by the same amount, by coincidence. They are both way off the usual line

Why the aggro? Well two reasons... I have made it clear in the past that I don't like Marquez and his silver spoon ride through his GP career...

Secondly, he ran off the track in order to make the pass... It shouldn't be allowed. Quite simple really :lol:

The last chicane at assen is heaps faster if you skip it too...

This gets penalised in all other forms of Motorsport except motogp
Did you watch the replay yet Pinchy?

Even Ben spies who was commentating said that Rossi was in the wrong because he braked later to get back down the inside of Marc, pushing him wide.
Yes I saw the replay... He was in front because he out braked himself and therefore could not make the corner...

Not sure how Rossi can be blamed, he braked well enough to stay on the track... Am I on fucking Venus or something? :lol:

Rossi held him wide.

Either way, silver spoon my ass. Are you saying he isn't talented enough to be there? Look at his results!

Srly don't see how Rossi did anything wrong. He held his line, braked enough to make the corner and then let Marquez rejoin in front. If you compare even to what Stoner did on that pass he was in the right the whole time... Marquez took his chances going around the outside and even said himself that he got the line wrong. Ppl may think he's bs'ing but I don't see why he would... if anything he could say Rossi pushed him wide but that's racing and it's what he did to Lorenzo a while back.

The kid can ride, no doubt. It was a great move and I don't see how ppl have an issue with either party involved.

Agreeing without the Argo.

Oh am go MM. Cool move and much respect for making it stick but still not legal in my opinion.

You're reading too much into it... Yes he's talented... But so are lots of riders... MM has never done it tough to get where he is... Worked hard yes. struggled, no
