I like how the VR pit shut MM apology efforts down.

I've always said I'm a fan of racing, not just a single rider. MM lacked patience this race. He doesn't need it often but when he does, he panics and his impatience kicks in. Push push push! No one can question the kids skill but someone needs to check his ass hard, starting with his own crew.

Everyone here knows I'm a Rossi fan among others but not Marquez or Lorenzo. Having said that, I liked how Marquez went over to apologize and I was little disappointed in Rossi for not accepting it.

HOWEVER, after I listened to Marquez's interview...I was right. He is a ..... He blamed everything but himself. He blamed on "tricky" condition then he pointed fingers at Pet and Zarco. Hey idiot, if it was "tricky" condition then be more careful and dont use other riders as bumpers.
 
I wouldn't have accepted the apology either. I don't see how anyone would. The aggressive and let's not forget dangerous move was blatant. It was no accident. These guys are pros and deal with inside moves all day but there was no chance of this move being successful. A rider in the GP class knows this. Hell, track day riders know you don't undercut someone unless there's an actual line to overtake. No forcing it. It wasn't the last lap of the race to say .... it, anddddd he was a second faster per lap than almost everyone out there. He would have easily overtaken Rossi before the lap was done but nope. Mr. Wreckless impatient had a brainfart and thought it was bumper bikes.
 
Unsure why people are questioning Zarco's move on Pedosa. He did nothing wrong, if anything, Pedrosa looked like he lost traction thru a wet patch.

Victim mentality.

Well I feel bad for everyone. Except Lorenzo, I don’t feel bad for him.

As far as MM he had so much raw speed over everyone that he didn’t need to force himself passed Rossi. Personally I think once he passed Dovi he should have just cruised.

I’d like to hear from the other riders and their thoughts.
 
Start was bull#$%&. Miller was robbed for taking risks. What safety concerns do they have? Pin the riders for unsfae releases like every other category? Marc is a joke.

Are you guys remotely serious with the black flag and or more. Let's recall 2015 rossi goes off the race line looks for Marquez and makes him crash. No penalty at all. Well 3 points on the race license which is no penalty but rossi had one so made him start at the back.
Zarco nothing for Danny's crash, pertucci nothing. So on it goes no points for Marc no points for vale difference is Marc will still win the championship.

Ps I hope Rossi doesn’t have nightmares from seeing Marquez name on the board.

If you receive a black flag for not coming into pit lane do a ride through after you jump the start, why would you get a lesser penalty for wantonly bumping and punting a couple of your rivals off the track? I guess it's three strikes and then a black flag? Pun intended.

Here, the 30 second time penalty has the same result as a black flag but the black flag shows the race world that race direction isn't afraid to penalize the big name riders. Rossi should have received a black flag in 2015 too. Fair is fair I guess.
 
Márquez has several records on the books

now adding one


most penalties accrued during a race

technically he could have had a few more with the not following race direction to the pit lane/riding backwards on the track penalty being combined into a ride through.

I strongly dislike Honda so as far as I'm concerned my first pic of who I'd like to see win is Dovi,which has not changed but my second choice would be Viñales or Zarco. maybe stoner will return

Márquez's arrogance is enough to crush any respect I had for him.

and rossi probably needs to just stfu but I see he is being rossi

the start of this race was a total crap. should have all started from pit lane except for miller like a year or 2 ago, then there would not have been any confusion. i have no problem with the ride through penalty except that the marshals were clueless to what was going on.

the rossi thing was a non issue except it was rossi. ride through penalty and 30 seconds and marquez STILL BEAT that loser rossi. i hope the boogie man doesnt visit him hes so scared of Marc. Funny when rossi use to do (he is no longer competitive) the same stuff nothing was made of it.

almost forgot

We all know you hate Rossi and his fans but wow Mark. To say that the Marquez/Rossi incident was a non issue is a bit much. Your hatred for Rossi has clearly clouded your judgment. It could have been anyone else besides Rossi. It was still a very amateur and irresponsible move by Marquez. Reminds me of the aggressiveness of Simoncelli when he used to pull that .... back in the day.
 
FOR SALE: Shoei helmet, size M, great shape, used to love it. Marc Marques paint, freshly pissed on.

Love ya Mark but this isn't a Marquez vs Rossi thing. Doesn't matter who it was...Marquez's riding was unacceptable. I'm a fan, but he deserved a black flag.
