Move on mate
To quote: "He told MCN: “What Race Direction is saying is that full contact is permitted. If you want you can touch another rider and nothing happens".
I made a comment about this "contact" a few weeks ago:
"With regards the Pedrosa/Simoncelli "incident", I did notice in one of the replays (the one from the left rear!) that Pedrosa actually appeared to pick it up when Simoncelli was almost past him, thereby running into Simoncelli’s back wheel? If you have a look at the lines they were both on and where they were tracking, it could be argued that had Pedrosa held his line and not picked it up, that Simo would have been past by the time their lines intersected. But no, he ran into the back of Simoncelli. Sorry, but I call that a racing incident."
If you have it recorded, have a good look and tell me who contacted whom?
When he's on song and has a "clear head" there's no doubt that Pedrosa is as good as anyone out there, so you can't blame him for being pissed off.
Emotion plays a part in this game, but the bottom line is that it's a very precise and analytical sport, particularly when there are so many riders capable of standing on the podium. In this scenario, too much emotion can quickly become a liability. This is where I think Pedrosa has a bit of a problem, and it's not helped by the guidance he receives from Puig.
Yes, the chance of winning the championship has gone (again!?) but we are only half way through the season - get over yourselves, re-focus and get on with it.
