As mm headbuts his knee after leaning in on him, rossi clearly jerks his leg in a fark off karnt kind of movement. I think they both got what they deserve for being a couple of sooks.Gratz to the honorable lorenzo on his championship....well he needs to finish at least 8th next race and rossi would need to finish outside the top 2. I think he will charge through the field but will hit a brick wall around 3rd place id say....if anything this has made for an exciting final race...

If Marquez, Pedrosa. Iannone or others are able to keep pace with Lorenzo and not let him get the break then he's going to have to keep pushing hard - fighting not only the riders with him, but also the one far behind. One thing Rossi's always been great at is making his way through lesser riders to head back to the points.I doubt he'll have a chance of making it to the leading pack, but if there's only 3 riders in the front group, a couple behind that are out of touch with them and then the rest, then I reckon 6th would be about where he'd end up.With that - it would take every single variable to continue working in his favour - none of the riders actually racing with Lorenzo crashing out (unless they all do) and at least 2 of those willing to fight all the way to the flag and prevent Lorenzo from winning. Pedrosa, Iannone I can see doing that - MM, not so much lol.Wet race would mix it up greatly, as will the willingness of the back of the grid to let Rossi do his own race or wanting to mix it up with him. Can definitely see the likes of Miller deciding to race as Rossi catches and end up coming a cropper - potentially taking Rossi with him. Alternatively - there's also a few who can give Rossi a helping hand on his climb through the field - a nice tow down the straight, out of the way through corners etc. Natural attrition will also clear the path a little for him.If Lorenzo can get the break and do what he does so well then it'll be all over after the 1st 5-7 laps.

Wet weather would definitely mix it up alot, rossi is a gun in the rain there is no doubt, its like v8sc and guys like SVG in the wet. Its almost unfair..

It will be hard for Rossi but my money is still on himMarquez needs to be reprimanded for running into Rossi and nearly causing him to crashThe penalty has really spoilt a good championship fight Edited 27/10/15 01:00 AM by arronm 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Give them both a hefty fine for bad sportsmanship and get on with it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
