Default Screw Rossi

Did anyone watch the MotoGP race? Rossi didn't have that last corner. He came into it way too hot and the only reason he didn't wreck was because he hit Sete. That was totally reckless and if it had been anyone else, they would have been penalized. I just lost a lot of respect for Rossi.

It's apart of racing. He came in tight and went wide.

Rossi Rules!!!! Where was that bitch, Biaggi?

Best lap of racing I've ever seen... But Rossi shouldn't be able to get away with that shit. If he had done that to an American, goddamn there would have been some ass whupin' goin' on.

Things happen in racing. A couple years ago Biaggi did it to Rossi and nothing happened then. It wasnt an intenional bad move. You can clearly see his foot coming off the peg. Sete cut wide then tight, and Rossi cut tight then wide. It's just racing man.

Oh by the way, the club I belong to does not have a racing subforum on our website. We do not have all the race highlights as well as the complete race posted, so if you missed the race, dont go there to check it out. We also do not have some kick ass pics from the race that would make good desktops. So dont visit our forum.

Here's the action from every angle:

You can see that Rossi would have run wide had he not bounced off Sete... He did it even after hitting him. Sete had a great line into the turn and its a goddamn shame he had to get beat that way.

wow Soluxx, i have to TOTALLY disagree with you. rossi outbreaked sete gibernau and pulled up even with him in the curve. gibernau can't just shut the door like that once rossi's established position on the inside. if anything, i believe the contact was gibernau's fault. i don't think he realized rossi came into the corner next to him and he thought he could cleaning shut the corner off and that rossi was behind him. regardless, it was minor contact and that happens when you have great racers.

Watch the video I posted... Look at the dark groove that Sete takes as he's going into the turn. Thats the line everyone has been taking for the race. Rossi is way too far inside the line and he knows it. Sete took the correct line and Rossi pushed it way too hard. Even if Rossi was already on the inside, he didn't brake until it was too late... It was totally his fault. You can't just hit people in a race. If you say its just minor and this is what happens, then where do you draw the line? When someone gets killed because of a bullshit move like that? That isn't racing. If you like that shit, go watch a demolition derby.
