Jorge Lorenzo wants Simoncelli’s head and racing license

That Jorge Lorenzo and Marco Simoncelli have a certain history this season is a well known fact, that Marco Simoncelli has been amply criticized and lectured for being reckless is also a fact; as his inability to get to the podium despite being fast, because of his penchant for over riding and crashing out (four times in the last seven races), but today at Assen he took down reigning World Champion Jorge Lorenzo, who needed some heavy points after a DNF at Silverstone and letting Casey Stoner take the lead in the standings.

While Lorenzo may have seemed cool and analytical in front of Italia 1’s cameras after the race, where he finished 6th, and despite an immediate apology by Simoncelli, the Yamaha rider was still seething mad, saying that he has no respect for the Simoncelli and that the Italian has to learn to manage his tires on the first lap and has to learn more racing strategy, naturally adding he was penalized by the crash and that his race was ruined.
“You saw what happened on the first lap on the TV.

Of course he doesn’t want to take me out, that’s not his intention, but I think the problem is that he’s not very conscious about the risks there are in the category, with this bike and these tyres.
I thought he learned from the past, from the controversy he created, like what happened with Dani (Pedrosa), but it’s clear that he doesn’t learn at the moment.
I hope he learns in the future but at this moment I don’t have any respect for him because he is causing a risk to all the riders.
” adding “If I were in the safety commission I’d take away his licence for several races, but I’m just a rider and I don’t have a lot of power to make those decisions.
