Mika Kallio Takes out Marco Melandri

From yesterday’s MotoGP race at Brno, Mika Kallio who is substituting for Casey Stoner on the factory Ducati took out Marco Melandri on the penultimate lap.
Livio Suppo called it a normal racing incident, but the Finn exaggerated his reaction with a couple of pushes and shoves and a verbal exchange with the Italian.

Kallio would later say: “Then came the crash with Melandri, who tried to pass me where it was impossible to, so that finally our lines crossed! I didn’t see him coming at all.
Melandri saw the incident differently and said: “I was passed him and then suddenly I got hit from behind.

I’m not sure how he can blame me when I was in front of him.
Maybe when he watches the video he will change his mind.
” Does Kallio suffer of some sort of peripheral vision problem or was he just not looking?
