I wonder if he was leading...


Tamada should have kicked some *** (KR), too. Unfortunately he's Japanese...and we're all about peace.

It looked to me like the rider in the green leathers was in the "right"....he had the inside line and was in front, and the rider in the red/black/white leathers pretty much hit the other guy from behind....either way, sucks that they wrecked....but hey....that's racing !

That was the Monza race back in May. The guy in the green is Fonsi Nieto (ZX-10R) and the guy on the black 999 was Ruben Xaus. I don't know what his problem was, that wasn't even a race it was a practice session and Xaus crashes on his own all the time. The one time he gets in an accident with someone else he goes ape ****. Maybe he'll come to AMA and he and Yates can go at it.

Yeah clearly Nieto seemed apologetic and had no intentions of taking Xaus down.

If Xaus didn't hit Nieto's rear tire, neither of them would have gone down. Xaus caused the accident and is a complete bitch about it.

He reminds me of a certain Columbian F1 driver turned NASCAR driver.

I disagree it looks like the guy in the green took a bad line in the first place. Maybe I am wrong, but it seemed like his line was fubar from the start.

It's called slicing and dicing. Obviously, Xaus wasn't in control of his bike so he couldn't stand it up. Rossi sticks it in the inside all the time to mess up someone's line.. look at the last race, and people call him a genius.

If that was in fact Xaus, I'm really disappointed in him and he should be fined for poor sportsmanship. That was one of the most idiotic things I've seen in sports since that NBA brawl with the fans.

You're right - the green bike turned in way too early. Xaus should have seen that from his high corner entry and adjusted his line accordingly instead of running into the other rider.

I hope some sponsors will be wise enough to drop his *** for that.

It was the guy on the black bike fault. The guy on the green bike saw an opening and took it. The guy on the black bike tried to cut him off after seeing he was going to be overtaken. What an a-hole!

i watched the video before i read all your opinions and i agree that the guy in green was in the right. he simply moved up and the guy in black wasnt paying attention. most likely was caught off guard that someone was advancing on him.
