When Rossi made the original comment he had a smile on his face and neither Jorge and Marc seemed to take it seriously. And he's since admitted he got frustrated in Sepang. It's a shame what seemed impossible a couple of years ago, winning the title, got so close and was denied. Seems Lorenzo's speed is just that bit better, but was still consistent enough up to the last two races.
Pedrosa though has just got on with it. His return to form has been epic, shame he's as injury prone as Rafa Nadal and Michael Owen.
Well done to Danny Kent, the second time a Brit has ended a world championship drought this year, the other being Kris Meeke ending a 13 year wait for a British winner in WRC. And well done Oliveira for being a good sport
