Where was the aggressiveness from Marquez that he had been showing while going against Rossi in the last couple of races? Oh yes, he applied that to ensure that Pedrosa was not able to attack Lorenzo! Not a single attempt against Lorenzo, when Pedrosa clearly demonstrated that the Honda had the speed to beat the Yamaha.
I used to like Marquez, but his behaviour lately has been despicable. As much as I think Rossi was wrong in pushing Marquez wide in Malaysia, I can also very well understand his frustration at the time. If Marquez would have ridden against Lorenzo today like he did against Rossi in Malaysia, I think we would have seen a very different result.
Now I would love to see Pedrosa finally win a well deserved title in 2016!
Agreed. Pedrosa had the pace in the last few laps, but Marquez just had to engage him and let Lorenzo slip away. Had Marc behaved and not slowed up Dani, Lorenzo would have had a battle on his hands.
Rossi put on a great display but I think he could have started the race in 4th and still ended up that way.
