羅絲與馬坤斯碰撞後開腔

（重溫）罰點制－針對犯錯的車手

自1995年成為HONDA主贊助的REPSOL，總部設於西班牙，也就"羅絲與馬坤斯事件"發表了用詞極度嚴苛的聲明，堅稱羅絲有意圖踢炒馬坤斯(羅絲已否應)。

聲明第一段已立即向羅絲發炮，指即使柏度莎取得冠軍，但卻因為馬坤斯被羅絲的不可接受及缺乏運動員風範的行為蓋過。

第二及第三段描述二人(馬坤斯及羅絲)在第七圈為爭奪第三名而發生多次超車，文字中更明言這個意大利人" the Italian "絕對有意圖及有預謀地踢炒馬坤斯，幸好馬坤斯在這次襲擊中沒有受傷。REPSOL認為這種缺乏運動員風範的行為是不能接受，有違運動及競賽的精神。

第四段則說對馬來西亞雪邦站發生的事件感到遺憾，尤其是REPSOL以運動的核心價值為榮，包括友誼、競爭精神及車手承諾。如果失去這些價值觀，REPSOL投放的贊助費是沒有意義。

第五段則說為了車手安全及人身健全(physical integrity)，因此強烈要求清晰及嚴厲的賽例，嚴懲今天所見的行為(指羅絲踢人的動作)。

第六及第七段指正面的事情是柏度莎拉開與對手的距離，繼日本站後再奪馬來西亞站冠軍，共取得190分，暫列車手榜第4名，隊友馬坤斯則是222分，保持第3名。

英文原文：

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”
