No, but as much as I admire febvre for his raw speed and grit, he does come across as a little bitch sometime, not the first time he's been pissed

Guillod roughed his feathers while defending his position...
Nothing any AMA pilot would have minded or even noticed...

Seems like anyone that races him and doesn't just let him pass them he gets pissed at. Seems like he thinks if hes faster they should just roll over and let him by. He bitches about things a lot

Not cool...
At least on TV there wasn't really anything wrong with what Vale did imo. He probably just didn't move aside as he should when the champ came through the pack.

I saw it from the first row, Guillod did nothing wrong, but Febvre is a little bit light headed due his world championship title from last year. So he acted like a real fool and dickhead. His middle finger wasn't the worst part, that he tried to park Guillod on that incredible steep uphill was RIDICULES! But after the race Guillod was "talking" to him and the people from the FIM/YS and Yves Demaria from KEMEA/Guillod (coach) were very fast at Febvre to also talk to him. If he's smart then he won't act like that again.

A character trait he shares with Webb... At the exception he's not as vocal and never bitches about anyone in interviews...

Guillod is a bit wild ala Anderson, he scares people a bit on a track. Nothing to write home about. Febvre seemed nervous lately and was probably afraid of ending like Graulus last year in Ernée, I'm sure his victory will calm him down a bit.

Racing for position, shouldn't be a issue. I can think of a few riders that Febvre wouldn't get away with that crap. Philippaerts, Desalle, Big Ken, Butron .. They would clean his clock for that type of disrespect

Somewhere Geoff, Luongo and Wolfgang are smiling. The GPs....I dare say....very intertaining as of late. MX1 dudes are the real deal.

You're probably talking about the racer X interview from 2 years ago

http://racerxonline.com/2014/07/16/ferrandis

You are slotted into the top five in the points’ race alongside French riders Jordi Tixier and Romain Febvre. What is your opinion of them and their racing?
I rode with Tixier since I was eight years old. I know him good and he's strong. At every race we competed in, we always had a good relationship, but now we are fighting for the championship, so we are very competitive with one another. As far as the other guy, I hate him.

No clue what that is about though.

Febvre is not "bro" enough for Ferrandis tastes.

That wouldn't happen with big Ken considering he's his best friend.

Here at 1'52", the move from Valentin that probably triggered Romain's anger.

2 seconds later, Romain's reply.

Guillod didn't make a bad move at all. He just ran Febvre a little wide to get the position back. Guillod gave him room and Febvre never went off the track. Guillod just showed a little bit of fight and aggression, and Febvre didn't like it. So much so that he swore at him and turned left and ran into him going up the fast up hill in the middle of the track. Febvre has made the move that Guillod made 100 times over, but when it's the other way around it's suddenly a problem. He's riding great at the moment but he does act like an entitled prick quite often

True.

Right after the 1'52" action (where Guillod moves right while the track goes left - but one could argue it is the result of a somewhat hard landing), VG parks RF on the outside of the left hander pretty badly and that one has to be intentional.

The 1'54" action happens a few seconds later, retaliation from Febvre.

VG probably expected it.

No biggie imo

It was a legit move for a sunday , not for a quali race IMO , both on factory Yamaha, both going well, the risk of them both going down, wasnt worth the potential contact. Febvre didnt like it , i wouldnt have either, if it had been Gajser or AC , i would have had no issues, all going for the same championship.
