Managed the Rossi against the majority of the expectations in order to obtain the world title to win, or was it still a Spanish party there in Valencia?

The season in a nutshell

For those who missed a little refresher. World CHAMPIONSHIP leader valentino Rossi (Yamaha) was this season not necessarily the fastest driver of the field, but it is the most constant. Lorenzo (Yamaha) and Marquez (Honda) have heard of the bike kukelden, continued the Italian, however, just in the saddle to sit to the podium after podium finish in each other anyway.

Rossi seemed to be quite definitely on your way to a tenth world title, but then there was the quarrel with Marquez (video). Both riders are not great. During the season, it was also several times wrong or almost wrong between the two. This battle culminated in a moment in which Rossi Marquez in Malaysia at the mines. As a punishment if Il Dottore at the back in the last race, and with 7 points ahead of team-mate Lorenzo (who started from pole) seemed to have the fight in advance decided.

The race

Rossi from the last place so, Lorenzo on pole and Marquez at #2. Rossi seems to be for the first time in his career modestly of his place (joke) and kogelt in three turns, but less than 11 (!!) riders pass by. If you count in dollars, you become just crazy.

Meanwhile grabs Lorenzo the lead, but he knows he is not loose to drive from Marquez. The hole between the two Spaniards is never more than a second. Pedrosa (Honda) seems to be the pace to be able to legs, but must zoetjesaan solve. Rossi already has like a cannon through the field and Ianonne bringing his Ducati (piece-goes mopjes in the comments).

The gap between the top three (Lorenzo, Marquez and Pedrosa) and number four (Rossi) is, however, enormous, because around the 13 count. Marquez sits in the rear wheel of Lorenzo, and seems to be every time an attack to go places, but does not do that. With this position, it is Lorenzo, a 5 points difference champion.

It seems Pedrosa, all of a sudden to tie in with the two team leaders. The Small Spaniard (1.58 m) to place even an attack on team-mate Marquez, but it shouldn’t take more benefits. It is, indeed, a Spanish party, and Lorenzo will be champion. Rossi rides a bear of a match, but not further than spot 4.

Sorrie, what say you? That had this writer been predicted? Oh, well, well, you’re right!
