| Yes Rossi was given 10 seconds for overtaking on yellow flags. Many other riders have been excluded for this offence.
I am taking nothing away from Rossi's skill as he is obviously one of the all time greats. this is even more reason why he should be treated the same as anyone else.My point was that being a 2 wheeled version of Schumacher i.e. in a class of his own will eventually have the same effect as Schumacher has in F1 and kill a lot of peoples interest in the sport.I have been watching bike racing since the late 50s and it is only in recent years that I have found it becomeing boreing. Of course there have been a few exceptions like Chilli performance today but some of the riding has become shall we say ungentlemanly to say the least. One of the worst examples being Capriossi's move on Harada to win the 250 championship. |
