Francesco Bagnaia has questioned MotoGP’s decision to release a short documentary marking the 10th anniversary of the infamous and divisive episode between Valentino Rossi and Marc Marquez.
The Sepang circuit will forever be remembered as the place where the rivalry between Marquez and Rossi reached its peak. The latter arrived in Malaysia in 2015 with an 11-point lead at the top of the standings over his Yamaha team-mate Jorge Lorenzo, with only two rounds remaining in the season. During the pre-event press conference, Italy’s Rossi openly accused Marquez of deliberately helping fellow Spaniard Lorenzo – remarks that left everyone in shock, including Marquez himself.
