Control Rider
Some of why fans were generally for Vale or Marc...but rarely both!
If MM93 made that move I bet this would've been a bigger thing.I raised both eyebrows that there was no penalty for last minute move for the lead. I would have expected being ruled out for a weekend or three. If the rest of the riders rode like that...it wouldn't be long before none were left. Not smart riding...and my former admiration for him is on hold. We already have one MM93 willing to "do anything" for a point. It lessens the sport, especially what it has turned into from the days of on camera shoving matches.
HA! you both nailed it! there was no way they were gonna call that anything other than a "racing incident" for THAT rider at THAT track! But like the commentator "Gavin" said... that was Filthy!They would have had to send a military helicopter to get Marc out of Italy safely.
I agree that it was a very strange call on race direction's part but that seems to be their MO.
