A firewall of impartial fans separates the most hardcore followers of Valentino Rossi, Marc Marquez and Jorge Lorenzo at the Ricardo Tormo circuit this weekend, in a bid to prevent any football-style eruptions as passions heat up under the Valencian sun.A firewall of impartial fans separates the most hardcore followers of Valentino Rossi, Marc Marquez and Jorge Lorenzo at the Ricardo Tormo circuit this weekend, in a bid to prevent any football-style eruptions as passions heat up under the Valencian sun.More than 400 Marquez devotees will be seated in areas 23, 24 and 25 and 26 in the blue stand on the inside of the track, while more than 1000 Rossi disciples have booked themselves places in sector 46 of a yellow stand. Members of the Fan Club Lorenzo are stationed further away, in areas five and six of the green seating.Spanish riders such as Maverick Vinales, Alex Rins, Alvaro Bautista and the valencianos Hector Barbera and Jorge Navarro also have their supporters, but these will be used as firewalls - the word used by the Spanish magazine Superdeporte - to divide the most headbanger Rossi tifosi and the Marquez' fans."The exceptional circumstances at this grand prix have led the Superior Sports Council to declare it a high-risk event," the magazine says. Nearly 100 Valencian police will be on duty, 56 at the circuit and 38 in the adjacent community of Cheste. After Sunday's MotoGP race, there will be a "controlled" - some hope - invasion of the track by fans to celebrate the podium activities.- See more at: http://www.bikesportnews.com/news/news-detail/motogp-valencia-firewall-of-innocents-separates-rossi-marquez-hardcore#sthash.h50bp8aE.dpuf
