Come era prevedibile il contatto Marquez/Rossi sta avendo delle conseguenze piuttosto serie anche fuori dalla pista.
Lo sponsor Repsol, da anni partner di Honda in 500/MotoGP, condanna duramente l?azione di Valentino Rossi e minaccia, a sorpresa, il ritiro dalle competizioni in qualit? di sponsor se non verranno intraprese azioni per regolamentare pi? seriamente e pi? duramente le gare.
Che dire amici lettori? La situazione sta diventando seria ed i risvolti saranno imprevedibili a medio e lungo termine sia a livello sportivo che commerciale.
Ricordiamo che Repsol, oltre che essere sponsor di Honda-HRC, ? anche partner commerciale di Dorna. La minaccia ? quindi oltre che economica anche di carattere politico.
Qui il comunicato in originale:
?Dani Pedrosa achieved a great victory today in the Malaysian Grand Prix ? a win that was unfortunately overshadowed by the unacceptable and unsportsmanlike conduct of Valentino Rossi against Repsol Honda Team rider, Marc Marquez.
?On the seventh lap of the race, with Marquez and Rossi immersed in a battle for third place that involved several overtaking moves between the two, the Italian ? in an absolutely intentional action ? dealt an unsportsmanlike kick to the Repsol Honda rider that knocked him to the ground.
?Although Marquez was fortunately able to escape unharmed from the attack, for Repsol the conduct of Rossi is absolutely unacceptable because it endangered ? in a premeditated and unsportsmanlike manner ? the safety of the Repsol Honda team rider. Repsol consider this an unsportsmanlike act incompatible with the values of sport and competition.
?Repsol are deeply saddened that situations like that which occurred today in Sepang exist, especially as the company feel proud of sporting values: Companionship, competitive spirit and commitment from riders. Without these values, it would not make sense for Repsol to participate in the sport as a sponsor.
?Repsol also call for a clear and strong regulation in the interest of the safety and physical integrity of the riders, which punishes behaviour like that seen today clearly and decisively.
?The positive thing about this race was the great performance of Dani Pedrosa, who gradually pulled away from his rivals to score his second win of the season ?following that achieved in Japan two weeks ago.
?After this race, Marquez remains third in the overall standings with 222 points. Pedrosa moves up to fourth with 190 points. The World Championship will conclude in two weeks? time, with the Valencia Grand Prix?
CLAMOROSO: REPSOL MINACCIA IL RITIRO COME SPONSOR SE NON ARRIVERANNO REGOLE CERTE. |
