yes verdict is in..

only way he will win the WC is if Jlo crashes out..

Let's all be clear.. deliberately f...king one rider's race should never be any rider's main objective during any race..
that is however what MM has done today.. this is no way to ride in MotoGP.. no matter who you are.. Rossi was right to be frustrated
as was clearly seen during the race with some of Mm's passes Rossi was looking back at him waving his hand up at him..
shame to see such incidents on track just because of MM's huge ego and lack of maturity...

his race reminded me of the last Moto3 race last year, when his brother had used support to hold back Aussie Jack Miller and prevent him from winning the championship. Seems like dirty tactics reside in the Marquez family.

so this what Rossi had said in press conference on Thursday:



QUOTE
Is Marc Marquez (right) trying to get back at Valentino Rossi (left) by helping Jorge Lorenzo win?
During the pre-race press conference for the Shell Malaysia Motorcycle Grand Prix at Sepang, Valentino Rossi unexpectedly went for the jugular of Marc Marquez, accusing him of conspiring against him in the championship. The accusations went even further when, with the cameras off, he stepped aside with the Italian press. Valentino was very, very harsh with Marquez. His words to the Italian media are recounted here:
"It is indeed true that Marc played with us, well, he played with me...it's pretty clear. In my opinion, it is important that he knows that I know. Well see what happens, but I'm pretty concerned. Because with Lorenzo it is already complicated, you also have to think about Marquez being deceptive. Marc in this case didnt play fair; a professional rider should use fair play at this point. Everything becomes much more complicated, especially considering Marc can be very competitive, including in these two races.
"For me it was really disappointing, he upset me a lot. Honestly, there were a few races that I suspected something, but I didnt expect him to choose so obviously to race that way. It was a bit of a disappointment, deception and concern, because surely he will try to do well here and in Valencia. But the important thing is that he knows that I know.
"During the race it seemed something strange happened, but I didnt understand it. Marquez had a much faster pace than the others, but was playing to try to let [Jorge] Lorenzo escape and have me fighting with [Andrea] Iannone. And after he waited for Iannone, [Dani] Pedrosa, [Cal] Crutchlow, [Maverick] Vinnales ... he knew the Ducati would burn me on the straight.
"Every time he tried to pass me he was super aggressive, he braked so that I would lose distance to Jorge; he did it three times really aggressively. It was lucky that Jorge was not very fast on Sunday, otherwise the race would be over, but he was always under control because he knew well that he could catch Jorge in three laps at most, and he waited to put me and Iannone as far he could and tried to put the largest number of riders between Jorge and me. And in the end he did it, it was good. Quite disturbing in my opinion this shouldnt be done.
"He wants Lorenzo to win. First, because he is mad at me. The way I see it, it's personal. What happened in Argentina, and then at Assen...since then he has had it out for me. He thought, a bit like a child, I wont win, so you wont either. For him the lesser evil is for Lorenzo to win.
"We'll see, we'll see what happens. If he’s faster than me, is always passing me, even though it isnt necessary, if he holds me back...the issue is complicated. Because he has nothing to lose and I do; I must always be ready. Its upsetting and makes me really angry. But this is how it is.
"This is something I could never imagine happening, that Marquez would make himself an obstacle to this championship. He is trying to put only Jorge in the game, which is not right.


and this is what Race Direction has said about the incident after today:

QUOTE
I'm not going to quote what the riders said in the healing but I can give you a general idea,Webb began. So from what we saw it would appear to be a deliberate move on Rossi's part to push Marquez off the track, or push him wide.

We heard from both riders. Marquez told us that he was just riding his normal race and minding his own business, making passes on Valentino without contact. Which is true. And that he had no intention of disturbing Valentino.

“Valentino on the other side said it was clear to him that Marc was deliberately slowing down the pace and making it difficult for Valentino to race. That he deliberately ran wide in the turn in order to give himself an advantage in order to get away from Marquez.

“Finally, we actually believe there is fault on both sides.
QUOTE
Despite what Marquez said we think he was deliberately trying to affect the pace of Valentino. However he didn't actually break any rules. Whatever we think about the spirit of the championship, according to the rule book he didn't make contact. His passes were clean. He rode within the rules.


Valentino reacted to what he saw as provocation from Marquez and unfortunately his reaction was a manoeuvre that was against the rules. It's irresponsible riding causing a crash. We believe the contact was deliberate. He says he did not want Marquez to crash, but he did want to run him wide.

No decision was taken during the actual race as Webb wanted to speak to both riders and watching the video replays at length.

Asked about Rossi appearing to kick-out at Marquez, causing him to fall, Webb replied:

Rossi's evidence is that his foot came off the foot peg as a result of the contact. From all the video evidence there is no clear shot that definitely shows that his foot slipped off the footrest because of contact or that he deliberately kicked. I don't have that as a smoking gun if you like.


Rossi called it.. even Race direction said he MM was deliberately trying to affect Rossi's pace..
Dorna is blind.. the Spanish kid can do no wrong.. ovcourse Doran is Spaish..

Doc
Post #10504

Deliberately affecting Rossis pace But he has done nothing wrong.

Corrupt as fcuk Dorna.

The penalty basically HANDS the title to Jorge, with an OFF TRACK decision.

So I don't understand people who say "it's too little".

Race Direction believes Marquez was WILLINGLY slowing Rossi down, which is DISGUSTING and yet "that doesn't break any rule".

Well, change those rules then, because slowing a championship contender on purpose is FIXING the result, and that's a crime in every legal code around the world.

Dai.

This is another reason why i refuse to watch Moto GP,seems to be all bullshit nowadays compared to the quality racing years ago. I honestly don't understand how people can class themselves as "professionals" when they play these childish little games all because they ruined their own chances from crashing every 2nd race.

Doc
Post #10506

ill watch the final round incase something magical happens. but that's it for me..


Jlo now is coming out saying race direction when easy on Rossi because of his name and that he shouldnt of got any points..
fcuk off JLo, he's pretty much had the title handed to him because of his little spanish buddy

Doc
Post #10507

oh and apparently Jlo passed Rossi under yellow flag's..
why was he not pulled up about that.. that is a conceed your postion back or ride through pentaly..
didnt see any penalty handed down to him.

after watching that footage, i'm left of the opinion that it's a racing incident, and should be left as such.

Doc
Post #10511

i just get over how that Rossi called out MM on Thurs saying he is not racing his own race and trying to slow him down to affect his championship shot.
everyone was saying Rossi was playing mind games and the media was shocked that he would accuse him of this.
Race directioin comes out and say MM was being deliberate in messing with Rossi race pace.. how does that not
deserve a penatly of some sort..MM say's ovcourse not, im racing my own race and trying to win every race.. the world was abit confused
by Rossi's accusation.. but after today's race he opend their eyes as to what MM was actually up to..

pretty sure this wont be the last we hear about this..

Feel sorry for Pedro. He rode brilliant today and won it from the start. Yet the spotlight is not on him.

Rossi admitted he intensionally ran wide to push MM out wider so he could get some clear track ahead of him and get a gap. but did
not mean for him to crash.. fcuk him.. little prick deserved it.
you could hear im off the throttle when he was looking over his shoulder, MM leant in once.. then again and that when he made contact
with Rossi and went down..

Have a look at the link i posted Doc,shows MM intended to hit Rossi. Time for me to watch British Superbikes again.

QUOTE
Valentino Rossi: You know unfortunately I lose a lot of time with Marc and in Turn 14 I tried to go wide to get a better line to make him slow because he just rides to cause me some problems. Unfortunately he came to me and I think he crashed in that moment. Its a shame because I think that in a normal race we can stay and fight with Jorge and we lost some more points. In Valencia will be more difficult.

That was an interesting read,what a highly distinguished,and decorated regiment,this paragraph sums it up
QUOTE
The 442nd Regiment was the most decorated unit for its size and length of service in the history of American warfare. The 4,000 men who initially made up the unit in April 1943 had to be replaced nearly 2.5 times. In total, about 14,000 men served, earning 9,486 Purple Hearts. The unit was awarded eight Presidential Unit Citations (5 earned in one month). Twenty-one of its members were awarded Medals of Honor. Its motto was "Go for Broke".

Shame it's come to this Doc,as you stated 'Ego,and immaturity'
I watched the Gif on the link that Dai put up,and it certainly shows MM deliberately leaning on Rossi,and to me,it seems like Rossi is more 'pushing' him away,over kicking,which in my opinion is a natural reaction.Hopefully more will come of it.

so i sent an inquiry to see if i could find out more details about when to the nbn rollout would be completed for our area, this was the response



now forget about the March commencement date as indicated by their website and the flyer we received

i guess it's as i think vk134 said / hinted at, we can expect to be waiting a fair while longer yet..........middle of next year here we come

The whole NBN circus is still onging here, One of the marketing spankers put his head up in work forum to bang on about how great they are going, FN BANG.
I've put the challenge on him to see how long before someone from sales will get back to me about getting on the NBN packages, today is the 14day timeframe I gave him to tumble his Koolaid beliefs. On the other hand, I set up a backup ADSL service at work, it rocks along at 25Mb sec downloads, so ADSl isn't totally crap, just the Sol destroyed copper network

I am growing very weary of this whole circus of outsourcing to useless fkrs like Accenture, so since I am totally under the hammer for service levels, I am being ruthless back. They certainly sharpened their pencil when they were staring down the barrel of $2.5m in service abatements just for the month of October, half smart fkrs didn't allow for daylight saving server adjustments, the total shitwits signed it off in April as fixed, when I questioned was it just because daylight saving ended, standard 457 muppet response, " yesse, plobrem fixy good and tested" any of course that seagull has long since left the 457 sharehouse.

Auburn deputy mayor Salim Mehajer charged over 'unregistered' Ferrari

QUOTE
Auburn deputy mayor Salim Mehajer has been ordered to front court for alleged traffic offences, accused of driving an unregistered Ferrari without his licence twice in the space of half an hour.

Police said the 29-year-old was stopped at 10.50pm on Saturday, driving a white Ferrari at Punchbowl.

Channel Seven reported that Cr Mehajer was pulled over after police noticed the car being driven erratically along Canterbury Road.
Cr Mehajer was allegedly not carrying his driver's licence and, according to police checks, the vehicle was unregistered.
He was issued with two traffic penalty notices: for driving an unregistered vehicle and for not carrying a licence.

But police allege that, just 25 minutes later, he was stopped again on the same road.

Channel Seven said different officers saw him doing the U-turn at traffic lights.

Cr Mehajer was handed a field court attendance notice for using an unregistered vehicle on the road and driving a motor vehicle while not carrying a licence.
