Re: Assault or not?
Looks like he intentionally did something to the front of the other bike either pushed the bars or grabbed a handful of brake.
Not on in my book!

Re: Assault or not?
make an example and ban both of them as the other rider clearly done something prior for the incident to come to a head like that.

Re: Assault or not?
There is nothing the other rider could have done that would excuse behaviour like that, period. That was quite deliberate and the sport needs to send a very clear message that such actions will not be tolerated. Regardless of what the courts decide I'd like to think he won't be on another grid anytime soon.

Re: Assault or not?
He's out riding in World Super Bikes at the moment. So his team and Ducati don't seem that bothered by it. Well not at the moment.
