MOTOGP » de Puniet: Rossi rejoined, I didn't…

its a shame after such a good qualy. vale has had one or 2 moments like that at the start when he has got away slow, usually he gets away with it or someone jumps out the way to avoid a clash, but that wont happen for ever. tho today was a mistake rather than a rash move.

worst thing was the marshells went over to rossi bike, despite randy clearly being in some discomfort.

but as i say shame for Randy, but thats racing

Give and ye shall recieve randy of puniet...

You're the tosser Avin. Offensive in the extreme.
Gracious comments from de Puniet.

What about misano last season?

didn't he pretty much ruin what could have been a half decent race?

shame yes, but its not like rossi hasn't apologized for it...

these things happen in racing...move on to the next round.

Real shame for De Puniet, just when it's going good....

On the plus side, Rossi usually has the good grace to apologise when he does **** up, and he's done that here. Even though Edwards' race was compromised, I think watching him cut through the pack will have sent his stock higher than running around to finish second (his real pace). I convinced Tech 3 will keep him for 2009.

It seems that Randy has tasted his own medicine there. Maybe he'll think twice now. As for the comment that Rossi went in too hot, he's obviously not seen a replay - unlike him, Rossi CAN brake and arrive at the corners on the correct pace - he got on the gas a fraction too early on cold tires.

Ahhh well Randy, the boot was on the other foot this time. Get over it.

Brendan, Totally agree, Randy in obvious pain and 2 marshells run over help Rossi get back on his bike?? what's that about? why wasn't Randy in there helping as well?

BOO HOO Have a hissy fit de puniet, its not like you haven't crashedin to anyone before.He was in the wrong place at the wrong time bad luck. He got a taste of his own medicine.

OMG, Randy was hardly having a hissy fit lol! u fans well over react.

Randy has had a few moments in the past no question(too many!), so has rossi. i think le mans either in 06 or 07 he tried a rash move down the inside of the chicane bring many down, tho he rode of fine. so it goes both ways, yes randy has caused accidents, so has rossi too, despite what people might think. or the press might tell us!

Tho on this occasions, Rossi just got it very wrong, rather than being rash. so dont have to much problem with it.

I think Rossi should not ride fast on the first lap as its dangerous out there. Maybe he should let everyone settle down and then start his charge by overtaking one by one from behind, avoiding further crashes for himself or his motogp collegues. In this way he can secure a win and avoid loosing points. I just hope Rossi or his team read this.

Thanks!!!
