Fair point made by Charlie Cox, Simoncelli gets a penalty for this but Rossi didnt get anything for taking out Stoner in Jerez which was arguably worse

That was due to a mistake by Rossi, he lost the bike. This was no mistake, it was just poor riding, he closed a gap which could not be. No way it was 50/50, all the blame lies on Simoncelli.

Pedrosa with a broken right collar bone now to boot.

No he passed Dovi the corner before. Dovi went wide and tried to come back at Rossi but braked early as he saw the yellow flags for Pedrosa's crash. Rossi was already in front and was defending on the inside

Fucking Simoncelli, fucking mop-haired Italian hack who has no business being in the 125s, let along anything more powerful.

Yeah, I know he's mad and I don't care. I do not care. I did not care then. I do not care now. I'm here to race him.

great reaction...

He was completely dominant in his last 2 years in 250cc. And is now just as fast as the other Honda drivers (faster than Dovioso) on the same bike, while being in a private team. Yes his action today was kinda unnecessary, especially with the critics other drivers has shown this weekend. But to say he has no business in MotoGP is complete bullshit.

Yeah, he's fast, but he is too dangerous. He was dangerous in 250s and he is dangerous now.

I think its called sour grapes.

Pedrosa is furious at Simoncelli, Simoncelli feels the penalty is unfair and Rossi said that Simoncelli crossed the line this time.

I think it was 50/50. Simoncelli is a hard racer, everyone knows that, history shows it. Pedrosa could have backed off, Simoncelli could have given more room. It is racing. All the other front runners have done the same in the past. There is no way Simoncelli should be treated any differently to how his peers were in their initial top flight seasons.

Awesome Yamaha livery for Lorenzo and Spies @ Assen and Laguna! Almost as good as the yellow and black livery of a few years ago...

Pedrosa ruled out of Barcelona

Huge shame for him, not to mention probably a hammer blow to his title hopes. Silverstone is only one week away too.

Simoncelli has received death threats after the crash with Pedrosa. Now he's under police escort:
