C'est tout de même étrange, je n'ai lu aucune réaction de Ben Spies sur l'incident du week-end dernier...
Ni de Lorenzo, d'ailleurs...
Pourtant il y a eu contact avec les deux...
C'est tout de même bizarre, de la part de 2 grands pilotes, victimes d'un ex-grand pilote qui désormais roule au-dessus de ses pompes "parce qu'il n'arrive pas a contrôle le monstre"... Je ne vois pas pourquoi ils se seraient retenus pour railler une telle médiocrité... Stoner ne s'était pas gêné (avec grande raison, d'ailleurs) à la fin de la course de Jerez 
Ou alors, c'est qu'ils ont vu les choses sous un tout autre angle...  |
Pour moi Rossi ne pilote pas au dessus de ses pompes, il n'arrive juste pas a dominé le monstre comme Stoner pouvait le faire et même la encore, Stoner se prenait souvent des claques quand même. Sinon les reactions des pilotes yam ont été plutôt cool. Celle de Lorenzo plutôt bizarre et celle de Ben très cool.
Lorenzo: "I don't know what happened. I had to ask the mechanics 'which rider hit my rear wheel' after the race, because I felt a big movement and almost crashed. They said it was Valentino, but I don't know what happened. I have to see the reply."
Ben: “We had a great start and the bike was feeling really good. I was in a perfect position coming out of turn three, right behind Dovi when I was hit from the back," recalled Spies.
"I lost one hand off the handlebar and didn't have much control going into the gravel trap. I tried to slow the bike as much as I could before tipping over."
The Texan rejoined a distant 17th and last, but pushed hard and took advantage of mishaps and penalties for other riders to reach sixth place at the finish.
"When I got back on track I knew there were a couple of slower guys out there so we could probably get some points. I got my head down and pushed and thought a top ten was possible" he said.
"The groups kept coming back to me and the lap times were good so we got a good result considering.
"It's unfortunate because I really think if we had clear track and started well we could have been in 46s all race long and battled for the podium.
That's racing, it sucks but there you go. I'm not going to blame anybody it's just a shame, we'll move on.”
