Re: POLL - If you were a marshall at Jerez....
I can't stand either of them but using the laws of Jenga It would kinda make sense to remove the bike that's on the top of the pile first......
These guys are supposed to be professional, you would have thought that they might have devided up so there was 3 to each rider but as it is there's 5 helping Rossi and one just stood picking his nose.

Rossi was under stoners bike though, like i said in the other thread, if there is risk of injury your going to help them first.Martin wrote:I can't stand either of them but using the laws of Jenga It would kinda make sense to remove the bike that's on the top of the pile first......

I would have kicked stonner back over, then stuck a broom handle through lorenzo's front wheel on the next lap

common sense would suggest that you remove the top bikelaurence_13 wrote:[

then the bottom bike and then help the rider up
this would also reduce risk of further injury as appossed to just trailing the rider out

Re: POLL - If you were a marshall at Jerez....
if you watch the crash again (i just did) stoner picks his bike up even before the marshalls are there, rossis still on the floor. Not being funny, but being human, I'd help Rossi first hands down, purely because he's still on the floor, he has a dodgy shoulder anyway. If it had been the other way round and stoner had taken rossi out then been under his bike on the floor, i'd help stoner first.mo haggs wrote:common sense would suggest that you remove the top bikelaurence_13 wrote:[

Re: POLL - If you were a marshall at Jerez....
fair enough but tell me this - have you ever lifted a bike into a van?

not on my own, and not lifted, up a ramp. But I've attempted picking one up off the floor, which didn't go too well.mo haggs wrote:fair enough but tell me this - have you ever lifted a bike into a van?

I'm sure that Stoner was hurling abuse as he stood watching Rossi pinned under the weight of two bikes. Personally I would be getting my bike up and back into the race ASAP, marshall assistance or not, and from the marshalls point of view (and general medical assistance) you assist the trapped person not the walking around one.laurence_13 wrote:if you watch the crash again (i just did) stoner picks his bike up even before the marshalls are there, rossis still on the floor.
