Can't remember if this has been brought up in the 15 pages or not....

But imagine the shitstorm if the players were reversed.

a little less perceived favoritism...

if he'd kept his bike running instead of hitting the kill switch, this would be a non-issue.
Thanks for clearing this all up for me, I've been confused all this time, thinking that Rossi taking out Stoner was the issue when it was Stoners problem for getting in the way of Rossi and then accidentally hitting his kill switch. Note to Stoner (because I know he reads the stuff) next time Rossi is any where near you get off the track, and keep your hands away from the kill switch [roll]

I love all the fanboys replies in this thread. Casey has already said various times that it was a racing incident. Hiting the killswitch was a safety thing, to save the engine just in case the bike was unrideable. From the videos posted you can see that the marshalls got Rossi going, most likely because the bike was already running and that they actually tried to get Stoner going. So this whole thing is sour apples from Casey and Val fueling the flames. For the fanboys on both sides.

Will this story ever come to an end?? Is MotoGP so lacking in interest these days that the press will not let the Rossi/Stoner interface die a respectable death and move on... like Stoner "says" he wants to. [bang] Ugh...

I plan to list the Federal Gov't. as a dependent on my next 1040 tax filing!

I have flying honey badgers and I'm not afraid to use them!

The fact that flame throwers exist is proof that someone somewhere said "I'd sure like to set those people over there on fire but I'm just not close enough to get the job done."

CONFIDENCE: the feeling you have right before you understand the situation.
