The tension is building. If you have a subscription watch the pre-event press conference. For those that don't...Danny Kent figures it was a racing incident and claims he doesn't have eyes in the back of his head. Rossi and Iannone are still friends and Rossi thinks there are a lot of stupid people on social media. They all figure Marquez was playing with them like a cat would a mouse at PI, and Rossi figures Marquez is on George's team. This should be good.  |

Malaysia is like the Caribbean in that a shower can pop up out of nowhere, drench the track and turn to full blown sun in a matter of minutes. That would be an advantage to Rossi who can roll with changing conditions. Break out your rain dances!! |

Miiiiiiiiind games. He's trying to get MM to "show" him that he wants Rossi to win by holding up Jorghey. |

Maybe. Hard to say. I doubt MM cares either way though. |

Good read. I didn't think there was that much behind the scenes, but things are getting a little ugly ahead of the final two races. I'm in the pro-Rossi camp, but I must admit his comments sound a little whiny. I mean, if someone is good enough to toy with you, then you really aren't that good. A champion should be able to keep up and beat the better rider (at least part of the time) because, you know, that's what a championship is. |

I think Marquez was only able to toy with them at that particular moment in time. Not in general. Rossi sounds more whiny in that article than he did in the press conference. I think he should have Drudi paint him up a tinfoil helmet.  |

I think he should have Drudi paint him up a tinfoil helmet. I know, I didn't mean to imply it was in general. Frankly, Rossi has gotten the better of Marquez multiple times this year. I just mean that if you on the verge of your 10th championship, it seems odd to say "I'm peeved that some guy was faster than me in the last race and that he basically held me up from overtaking my pts rival." Either go faster, or if not possible, then make do with what you got. This is what I think Rossi is best at and has been the tale of his season: go faster(or -est) when he can and when he doesn't have it, use skill and strategy to finish as high as possible. Anyway, seemed out of character. Moving on...I can't wait until Sunday. I may just try to get so blackout drunk tonight that when I wake up it will be the race.  |

The tension is building. It's really hard to say if Rossi is trying to rattle or has become rattled. He really came down pretty hard on Marquez with the Biaggi/honesty comment. I'd like to hear Colin Edwards take on it. I think if Rossi can beat George in this race the championship might just be his. If they go to Valencia with Rossi ahead by fewer than 5 points it will be tough. I'd like to see him win one more. Even if he doesn't the old man has given the kids a run for their money. |

Here's another theory: That was said to the Italian press...the same Italian press that has been pretty hard on Rossi's buddy Iannone over the past week. Maybe he's just trying to re-direct their anger towards Marquez to give his friend a break! |

Yeah, the Biaggi comment was where things started getting real. Obviously, lots of private stuff we are unaware of, so that factors in. Could just be the classic case of mentee trying to escape mentor's shadow and mentor feeling the pang of despised love. |
