Rossi and Marquez playing games...

.... which I now remember that I am. "Stealing" a tow from Rossi isn't cool and must be punished 8)

Registering, and having a video pass is different. You don't have to pay.
I suppose giving up an email addy is still a price. :-\
IIRC, Marquez got a tow off of Rossi to steal Pole away from him at Silverstone, yes?
Marquez playing games with folk that have nothing to lose in jamming him up.
So he got served.
First turn after the start at Misano is not a good place to be mid pack.
MM had already messed up the lap, so Rossi took the opportunity to remind him that he was still there

MM was playing with his food in the race. Just sitting behind Quatararo until the last lap
MM, FQ and MV were gone early. Nobody else in the field was anywhere near them. My boy lost pace for several laps, then started laying down the fastest laps. Not sure what was going on. (?) Fabio almost ran over Marc on that last lap and that sealed the deal. Classy of the eyetalian fans to boo during the national anthem. [roll]
Good summary.
Loving Moto GP.
I didnt hear the booing, but thats dissappointing. One eyed fans shit me as these guys are super athletes, there have been plenty worse than MM.
I thought Rossi deserved a grid penalty for deliberate baulking in practice, and that thought crossed my mind when Quarter nearly hit MM on that corner. Maybe it was an honest brake, point and shoot save by MM, but if it wasnt, he fooled the commentators.
I think this generation has surpassed the previous one with the advanced skill and racecraft to hide dirty tricks amidst "race incidents", but hasnt the balls to openly punch on in the pits. Kinda like the difference between ice hockey and soccer. Clearly Im from another generation.
Rossi’s helmet pics if you haven’t seen them.

Nice brake check.
So it's not just me.
Good I wasn't having a senior moment ;D
Deliberate brake checking should be penalised. What do the rules say?

Why?
It's a race tactic, just like a block pass. Should those be penalized, also?
I reckon there's a difference between the two. You can see the block pass easier than an extra squeeze of the brake and that's where the danger is. A rider sees the block pass but a brake check is more dangerous IMO. There's no brake lights and it's deliberate baulking but using the brake instead of bike position. Deliberate baulking in some circumstances can be sanctioned iirc.
I guess we can agree to disagree. [beer]
I had lots of people complain about my block passes ;D

LoL :P
The way I see it, it's racing at the highest level, and shouldn't be sanitized. JMO I'm also not promoting the idea that it should get so dangerous as to cause injury. It's a fine line.
Marc schooled Fabio very much like Valentino schooled Marc.
There will be many more great races between these two in the future.
HiHo...off to work.

This! Like I said above, MM was playing with his food that whole race. He knew that they were the only 2 with the pace. I think MM wanted to see what the new kid has, especially since his biggest competition is in a downswing.
