So.... does anyone else here follow MotoGP? As we head into the last race of the year at Valencia, there has been so much drama that has unfolded over the last few weeks.
Last week at the pre-race press conference in Sepang, Valentino Rossi and Marc Marquez has some choice words for each other, as Valentino called out Marc for attempting to slow him up from dicing with Jorge Lorenzo at the front. Valentino leads the championship by 12 points to Jorge before the start of the Sepang race.
During the race, MM and VR got into a heated battle during the first 7 laps of the race. VR held up MM in a corner by deliberately going off-line, and MM crashed. Lorenzo ended up finishing 2nd, and Valentino 3rd. Valentino leads the championship with 7 points going into the last round.
VR was penalized by the altercation with MM by having to start the next race in Valencia at the back of the grid. There have been hundreds of articles, people tweeting, and petitions being signed that favor VR, and justify his actions.
MM and Repsol Honda have threatened to leave the sport.
Yamaha has rumored to be letting Jorge Lorenzo go at the end of this season due to his comments and reactions (negatively) against VR.
With Valencia coming up in a week and a half, there is so much controversy about the championship. Many think that the back of the pack riders will let VR fly by at the start, giving him a chance to dice with JL and MM. But I feel its going to be very hard for VR to win the championship if he starts at the back of the grid.
What do you think will happen?
