Marquez had nothing to lose. If he took Rossi out with his antics, it wouldn't affect him, just deny Rossi the title.

As much as I admire Rossi, you can clearly see his left leg move out and his knee push Marquez out, I think if he had concentrated on riding instead of all those stupid comments even before the race then people might have more sympathy but from the overhead shots it was obvious what happened. And for Yamaha to then say Marquez actually rode into Rossi's knee !! Come on guys with all the cameras catching it, it was obvious what happened !

At least it makes the last race interesting !

He's good Rossi- can knock Marquez off whilst looking in the opposite direction.
Serves Marquez right, you can't lean on someone when you're on the outside of a corner and not expect to come off worse.

The more you look at it, the more obvious it is. Looks like Rossi gave up on trying to race him and decided to simply run him off the track.

Ugly end to what should have been a great championship however you look at it.

Moto GP has had its day, I believe Lorenzo would overhaul My Hero Vale in a straight fight, but truly believe Marc is playing games with Vale for all the reasons stated, Marc has dished it out in the past & got fair warning from Vale & tried to play hardball & got what he deserved.
Vale could have run him wide on a fast corner, but showed him what happens when you play dirty. For me a dyed in the wool 46 Fan Marc was as much to blame for what happened, but Moto GP needs a new talisman when Vale walks away, he is their new GOLDEN BOY. The living legend that is Valentino Rossi 46 will never be surpassed or his legacy tarnished.
Viva 46 the GOAT

I'm now praying to all the God that Marc takes out Lorenzo in Valencia as I will there to watch it live Go Vale

I think Marquez went down easier than a footballer

What didn't help was Vale can be seen slowing down to line himself up give the lettuce a gentle tap

I had heard he is now appealing the penalthy

I hear Jorge spat his dummy out and was shouting at race control because the penalty wasn't Vale being stripped of his points which would've handed the championship to him.
Jorge is rattled.

Purely speculation and mischief making.

Vale's contract like Jorge ties them to yamaha till the end of next season but given how many get out clauses seem to be written in these days, contracts seem to be worth not much.

Whilst Jorge is having a hissy fit, after the last race I wonder if Honda will let pedrosa go and then Jorge moves to Honda.

Vale I suspect will now see out his days in Yamaha unless Ducati become good again.

Canna see Vali going to Ducati
He will want to be riding a competitive bike.. not a throw back to the mid '90's when they dominated WSB
