Nascar meets MotoGP. Bumping is racing. Looked like an old Dale Earnheart(R.I.P.) move :headscratch

Now that, boys and girls, was a race. I'm not too sure about the nice little love nudge at the end there, but to me, looks like Rossi tried to squeeze in on the inside without enough room to do so, so when Sete layed it over he layed it right into him. I for one, hate Sete, for the mere reason that he's Rossi's main competition and a little arrogant. But, I do have to give Sete a pat on the back for keeping his composure at the after-race interview. I for one, would have ripped Rossi's head off. So, here's a beer for the both of ya!

That was an awesome race....Talk about getting clammy hands and my heart beating fast..... :deathmetal
That was awesome..... :thumbup :thumbup

IMHO, Sete held his composure and was really modest and classy with the way he handled things in the interview :clapping ...Especially after Rossi said that Sete was probably mad :countdown ...That cracked me up. :laughing

I have to say, I totally loved Melandri's comments in the interview, as his excitement for being on the podium was rather moving.... :clapping

Bottom line? Rossi is so right. It is a race. :chopper

A sportbike race yes, a motocross race NO! Rossi should have been penalized for his unsafe move. If it was Nicky, or anyother racer that pulled that, I'd say the same thing. Rossi went in there knowing there would be a collision. :thumbdown

Well, lamb chop, the officials obviously don't see it that way.... :flipper

It is similar to what Aaron Yates pulled in T1 at Laguna last year. Totally bonehead move.
