Valentino Rossi says he has no regrets about his aggressive battle with Yamaha team-mate Jorge Lorenzo in the Japanese Grand Prix, and believes Lorenzo only criticised his riding because he was frustrated at being beaten. The Yamaha duo made contact as they repeatedly swapped positions in the closing laps at Motegi, with Rossi emerging in front and taking the final podium position. Afterwards Lorenzo expressed his displeasure at Rossi's tactics during the battle, but the reigning world champion dismissed Lorenzo's complaints that because the Spaniard is chasing the title, Rossi should not have taken so many risks when dicing with him.
