  • it is possibe that Rossi is on a mean streak.

    Lorenzo may have already won the championship...
    but he's got so much to worry about now.

    I don't think Valentino's going to let him enjoy the rest of the season.

    the problem with Rossi is that he has very long legs and its kinda more visible than others, and that fluorescent yellow doesnt help either.

      Rossi fans are having a ball i guess ! But the turn of events were handled real bad by the YAMAHA Management ! Lorenzo if he continues to act like this will never make fans like ROssi ! If you are not satisfied with someone scrubbing you ! prove your mettle on the track instead of whining kid ! The sport already has enough of those !

      And about Rossi !
      I wonder how the shoulder injury which was suppose to tire him even more in this track disappear all of a sudden !
      I dont find him saying anything anywhere on his shoulder !
      BAYLISSTIC !!!!

      • ^^ dude, he did a favour to yamaha by not behaving like rossi and maybe ending up in a potential crash for both of them !
        proving mettle is one thing and being sensible another !
        May the torque be with you..

        • Sensible is to accept defeat and move on ! Not go and complain to bosses..The title is more or less is in his hands now and the diff between 3 r d n 4 th position is just 3 points ! IF he was a sensible bloke ! Why did he try to overatake rossi then ?
          Its a personal rivalry now.. Who s better than who ! So Lorenzo is not proving to be tough enough ! Simple as that... And Personally I feel he s very different before and after Rossi s Leg breaking crash. He was stronger mentally back then !
          BAYLISSTIC !!!!

            he didn't do anyone any favours. he needed to make sure he din't crash.

            Lorenzo was the one who pounced back at Rossi.
            Rossi just replied in kind. (not so kind)

            Look at the video here...
            YouTube - Valentino Rossi vs Jorge Lorenzo Motegi 2010

            at the 5:09 - 5:13... look at Lorenzo's line...
            now look at Rossi's line... then then touch.

            Should Rossi have slowed down???
            Changed his lineto let his team-mate pass by him???

            Lorenzo would not have been in this situation if Rossi hadn't had a leave of absence. Rossi decided to point that out yesterday.

            Rossi didn't break any rules. Lin Jarvis/Lorenzo agreed too.

            Catalunya was similar... Lorenzo enjoyed it then.

              If Lorenzo was doing any of the above then he wouldn't have made multiple futile attempts to get to third!! He almost crashed doing this (Rossi crashing would have hardly made a difference to Yamaha or to Lorenzo's title), what favour did he do to Yamaha then?

                Interesting..
                but what I think is that if Jorge was so sensible...he shouldn't have tried to overtake in the last stages and should have settled for 4th place...but that didn't seem to be enough for him...and neither for Vale as he showed the way he responded.
                Jorge was always faster in this race(compared to rossi) but in racing...speed is not what makes winners...the one who crosses the finish line first is the one who gets the Grand prize.
                I would have reacted the same way if Jorge would have taken the 3rd place..but Rossi just proved to be much more than Jorge in this race.
                Just because you haven't seen it doesnt mean its impossible...expect the unexpected.

                    Somehow I feel the same....he wanted to fight.....also the way Rossi was pushing JLo before overtaking him (after 6 laps or so).....he wanted to rattle Lorenzo maybe wanted him to make a mistake and crash...

                    Lorenzo;'s worries would be over once the championship is over.....the last 3 races should be fun...am expecting both of them to be very very aggressive then...

                    that is one of the reason that JLo doesn't have many fans....he is appreciated as a rider but few like him....
                    Rossi said something on the shoulder...it being not much of a bother or something

                    Others have already explained it well.....read this too

                    "I'm with Carty here, where exactly did Rossi torpedo Lorenzo?? There was some tight racing with both making aggressive moves. If Rossi had wanted to end Lorenzo's day, he had a couple of chances. Here's a prime example, all he had to do was push him out another foot and Lorenzo would have run out of racetrack. Hell, it was Lorenzo that decided he would try to squeeze Rossi and lean on him as they went into the right hander before the "tunnel" on the penultimate lap just before the picture in the prime example photo.

                    I lost some respect for Lorenzo when he went into his garage and whined to the Yamaha bosses that Rossi was being too aggressive, mean, whatever, etc. That was nothing but hard racing. If he wants to experience dirty racing then he needs to come over to the AMA Daytona SuperBike class. Just put on Herrin's leathers and go out on track with Danny Eslick. He'll find out in a friggin' hurry what it's like to have someone turn RIGHT into you in the middle of a left hand corner. Lorenzo was a dumb ass for pressing the issue considering the championship is on the line. I'm glad he did, it made for some great racing but don't whine about moves that you made that put you in a bad position going into a corner. He knows damn well that going into a corner on the outside almost never works out for the good. Leaning on the guy on the inside is almost always causes you issues and often is the reason to go leather testing. If yuo're gonna enter the fray and start swinging, don't get pissy when it doesn't work out like you wanted and you get a bloody lip. Shut up and learn from it."

                          But then I guess all this is part and parcel of the sport !! Hope Rossi is not boo'ed at Valencia like he was when he pulled that move on Sete !! Only time he was boo'ed !!

                          Heh heh .. well come to think of it !! The rider with arguably the best race craft, coming together with the horsepower monster that is Ducati !!
                          Yupp, we Rossi fans are waiting too ......

                          n, if there is one team that can be depended upon to sort the legendary buckling/weaving of the Duke front end, its got to be Rossi/Burgess !!

                              Ya I vaguely remember, I guess some of the Rossi fanboi's are as pathetic as the blind Rossi haters !!

                              But sometimes I wonder how in the last 10 years or so, whenever anything exciting that has happened in MotoGP, Rossi has had something to do with it !! N for that only kudos to the man !!

                                Oh yeah I remember that...and moreover that time there wasn't any battle between the two...
                                Moreover the fans were screeming vale,vale..even when Dani's name was announced!!
