The report I read said Stoner hit the kill switch while the bike was laid over to prevent damage. Probably smart, considering their limited number of engines per season.
And what's wrong with investigating the marshals' actions? You could barely see Rossi through the herd of people helping him get going, after he
caused the crash. Stoner had maybe one guy buy him and was waving his arm to get some more attention on his bike, but they were all busy heoping Rossi.
If Simoncelli had half the help Rossi did, he probably could have maintained 2nd place.
Unlike Flannel Man, or whatever his name is on here, I'm not such a "fanboi" that I want to see sportsmanship rules fly out the window to support any rider over another.
