And who knows how much it is to put back after it's deployed. But you do have to take it to an authorized Dainese retailer.

Yeah, the same Mike Webb who said that MM wasn't sandbagging in PI (where everyone seems to be in consensus that Marquez was) If Lorenzo gets sacked from Yamaha, i'd want Vinales to go there! I don't think Pol deserves that seat, even though he's been primed as the next in line. Heck Bradley...

Fair enough. I would be more of a believer on this whole sandbagging thing if it were 2014 though, where Marquez was decimating the entire field every race. This year, he doesn't have that same luxury to play around with his pace as it's a level playing field now.

Pit board would have said Lorenzo if you paid special attention yourself. Jorge passed Valentino the lap before and please, no need for the condescending comments.

I can't think of any at the moment. This whole sandbagging thing only came to light about a week and a half ago. You did mention you studied 5 races and 3 of them you feel were manufactured. You mentioned Qatar, PI, and what was the last one? I'm still not entirely convinced that Marquez was...

Let me ask you this, had the events occured like they did over the weekend except the outcome of the start of the race, would the tone change on Marquez? Meaning, if Marc had a crappy *** start and was in 4th on the first lap, kept the same pace for at least half the race then starts battling...

I wasn't calling you out specifically. I was generally speaking and my statement holds true that majority of his fans (the absolute die-hards) are very hypocritical. I totally agree with this. But these guys are the best riders in the world and probably have the biggest egos in the world...

I fail to see torpedoing someone on purpose to take him out as aggressive racing.

Or them wishing the rest of the field let Vale through and let him race Lorenzo on his own, thus rendering the championship in favour of Vale. Common sense is out the door. That said, I won't be surprised if things get ugly in Valencia.

I'd have to disagree. I don't think Dani was stating that Rossi wants stricter rules. He was merely calling him out for his change in attitude towards hard racing. Remember, Pedrosa was the one who was appealing to have cleaner racing especially during his whole ordeal with Simoncelli. Rossi...

Yes, Marquez was praised. His riding has not changed contrary to what you think. He's always been reckless. Look at him in Mugello or Barcelona. He's only getting called out now because a possible crash would have grave consequences to the championship. As i've said, he's been reckless...

Eh? I fail to see your point here. lol I was merely calling out Vale's die hard fans and their hypocrisy.

So when is it acceptable to sandbag? Rossi did it all the time back when he could get away with it, then he would just dart off and win the race. Lorenzo's strategy in Valencia 2013 was considered genius, and even Pedrosa (who received the brunt end of Lorenzo's aggressive passes) agreed and...

This is what really surprised me from David Emmet's article. http://deportes.elpais.com/deportes/2015/10/26/actualidad/1445852047_686684.html Any of our spanish fellows care to translate? What's the reaction like from the comments? It's agreed on here that the race in Aragon was proper and...

That's quite an exaggeration. The other riders always get painted unfairly, and from what i've read all throughout the internet, whenever they provide reasons for their struggles, they label it as an excuse. Then they act as if Vale is always gracious in defeat and NEVER makes excuses. Again...

Here we go. Let's face it, there's a double standard set on the riders. Perfect example above. Lorenzo would be labelled a complainer and cry baby but when it comes to Vale, "yes of course, it's true." I've seen it countless times. Imagine the tables were flipped and Lorenzo or Stoner had...

I really don't want to post anymore on this issue because clearly, we all have differing viewpoints on the situation. I'm genuinely curious as to where and how you obtained data to conclude that Marquez was sabotaging Rossi. Not being argumentative, i'd actually like to know as you seem to be...

as it should be..

Hey, I agree that some of Marc's passes were reckless. Some corners he could've held off and waited at the next. I don't know Marc's mindset so I can't say whether he's purposeful with his moves. He's been making the same type of passes since the smaller classes so part of me sees it as just...

This further solidifies my point that by him removing himself from the race in protest, he would look like a spoiled, whiny, self-entitled brat. I'm Valentino Rossi, who are you to slap me on the wrist and penalize me. With or without him, MotoGP will go on. Perhaps not on the same level of...
