People forget (or don't know) about the Spanish angle. MotoGP is a Spanish championship. The head office of MotoGP (Dorna) is in Spain. All things being equal, if MM can't win the title, he'd like a fellow country man to win it. In this case Lorenzo. There's no question MM would help Lorenzo as best he could to win the title. There's a reason Rossi and others have accused MM of helping Lorenzo. Likely because it is happening. There has been other tomfoolery in MotoGP before with links to BS happening in Spain.
Team Repsol's Dany Pedrosa's manager, Alberto Puig, apparently always had Dorna's ear. His office was even in the SAME building as Dorna! What do Repsol, Pedrosa, Puig and Dorna all have in common? Yep...based in Spain.
