high side ur right on the tamada race a few years ago, dont think it was a great race as sum 1 said, there has been better but better races r 2 come im sure, who said would he have done it if it wasnt in spain????????????/
come on wake up he does it alot remember 1st race last year at welkom?
rossi did it twise on biaggi.. rossi ur the king and we love it
anwser this why did rossi park it inside sete and last year a few times? in my view the yam is not as fast as honda so its the brakes or lose.. only my opinion.. game on..

Rossi, knows what he is doing and will do just that, mistake or no mistake.

I don't see where Rossi was at fault anymore than Sete. He could've blocked the inside line, but he left it open and tried to turn it back in. I guess Valentino could've hit his brakes and let Sete ride whatever line he wants. If it was you, would you just have backed off and not tried to run inside? I know I would've tried it.

Also, I just can't feel sorry for Sete. He's a bitter, bitter man. He's got a reason, but he's like a little kid. Always some excuse why he doesn't win. And how about that shoulder comment during post race. I thought he was going to cry. Poor thing. I don't know who's worse, him or Biaggi from a few years ago.

I'm just glad something happened in the last lap or two. It was a very boring race otherwise.

Thanks for the link to the videoclip (i hadnt seen the race, and am too lazy to goto the motogp site).

I agree, Sete left too much space for Rossi going into that last turn. he must've thought Rossi was a bit further back, but he was right on him.

It was a tight pass for sure, but I've seen wayyy hairier manouvers from many other riders in the past. Rossi just squeezed himself in there... the contact sort of looks avoidable because it's wierd that Gibernau let him in there, and he ended up pinching Rossi in there once he realized his mistake. It's a tough call, but from my experience I'd say Rossi showed him a from tire well in advance of Gibernau having to commit to that tight turn in... HOWEVER at that point Gibernau's best choice was to close the door on Rossi and scare him off, because the mistake was already made... Rossi knew it was going to be tight and a real compromising line into that double radius turn there... but he put it in there very nicely.

Somewhere in my predictions i mentioned a little punting during the season... and I think Rossi will get some punting thrown his way when guys get frustrated for the win ... you can bet Sete will be as hard as stone the remainder of the season to make up for that one...

Either way, the last lap was awesome!
