I want to understand what race were people watching where MM was so out of control. Even Emmett made a point of describing MMs passes as clean, not once did they make contact. They were aggressive, but considering MM's previous 2 years, remarkably within control. Again, we saw 2 previous incidents between Rossi and MM this year, Argentina and Assens. To make a further point, some people were actually saying that Rossi was the aggressor in both those races. PI was an outstanding battle, but all clean racing from Rossi, MM and Iannone. Repsol's response is BS and probably used for leverage against Dorna.

Agree, there's a lot of politicking from Repsol. That's to be expected. I'm totally fine with them walking away, if that's how they feel. It's the same, indignant bloviating you see in, say, professional wrestling. Whatever.

I think the point about MM's riding is he has a history of being out of control and putting others at risk (arguably more so than JLo, Rossi, Pedrosa... probably not Simoncelli). His passes were technically legal, but this back and forth, coupled with that history gives creedance to it being more than just hard racing. I contend he should've shadowed Rossi so they could make up the gap to JLo, or he should've passed him and been done with it. If it was the last couple of laps, that kind of aggression would be warranted. No reason to pull that on lap 5. Both of them were on the edge, Rossi losing the front a couple times, MM diving in, off line, then possibly slowing up. No justification for Rossi's action, ultimately, but I wouldn't want to be dealing with MM riding like that, considering his history.

I'm not a big Stoner fan, but when the two of them raced hard, even when it got pretty hairy, I think there was enough respect and trust to know each would push the limits without blatantly stepping over them. MM hasn't gotten there yet.

+1 Dead right. MM is riding clean this year. He is growing up.

Now this, http://www.insella.it/news/motogp-2016-yamaha-divorzia-da-lorenzo-dopo-sepang-133080

Short story: The pathetic act of Jorge Lorenzo after the race of sepang has not gone unnoticed in Yamaha.
In Particular Lin Jarvis has not digested the fact that Lorenzo has crticato the decision of his team publicly questioned the appeal against the penalty of Rossi.

Thats about $130 Pacific Pesos :o [laugh]

Bayliss could fight. Nice fella though.

I've become a MM fan, because he refuses to be intimidated. I like that in the little shit.  [laugh]
What people are not realising is that MM doesnt give a shit about JLo or Rossi. Its every man for himself out there.
Danni is showing class. I think I'm becoming a Pedro fan.


Soooo...

 I agree with this statement:

“Yes VR intentionally ran wide to make a statement…but MM had more options than the one he chose to take.”
“MM could’ve turned back & got up the inside but he stayed outside & continued to push on VR, then fell onto him, that dragged VR’s leg off.”
“I think we need to focus on the real crime here. Why was VR a gentleman for so long? He should have grassed him a lot earlier.”
