remember jerez 2011? rossi falls, take stoner

stoner : youre ambitions were bigger than youre talent..

i'm sorry stacey cooker? we talk here about 9 time word champion,, 7 in GP class,,

where is youre talent.... first get 9 word titles, we talk again.

Valentino Rossi FOREVER!:D

I'm afraid you are wrong. Rossi developed the Yamaha into a winning bike and now he aims to do the same with Ducati. Rossi doesn't Race for winning teams; he creates them.Stoner and Ducati were a winning formula, but there were no surprises with the 2011 world champ - Honda is the BEST team and it is Stoner who doesn't enjoy a challenge. In 2011 Rossi has made in-roads with Ducati development and only time will tell if this is enough to mount a charge on the Honda/Yamaha show...

@MichaelKnight52 It maybe is a bit stupid, but he did a few times ago. He just show his talent in 1vs1. Also if he got a good bike he doesnt/didnt always try to get a big gap even if he can. Remember Philipp Island in 2003? He got a time penalty (10 seconds). After he saw it, he decided to drive 1-2 seconds faster per round. At this moment he saw it, the gap was not that big. In the end he.. won. But this is just one example. / Other: let us see the times in the following days. new duc @twitter

@mardathuna2012 im afraid you have no idea what your talking about. rossi a legend in motogp, he isnt superhuman, he isnt god. you say he creates teams? he isnt a god. he is a great rider, not jesus.

ROSSI è "DIO" PERCHè PUò SCEGLIERE QUANDO VINCERE E QUANDO RECUPERARE TERRENO SUGLI ALTRI PILOTI!

[MichaelKnight52]

@Sneaky335 rossi moved to ducati because it is italian, when he retires, he wanted to be with ducati as he could still test ride, make guest appearences etc. also for a new challenge, agreed. Rossi is a legend in motogp, stoner rides 105% always, sometimes he pulls a lead from it. and i guarentee rossi tries to battle other riders, that would be stupid, the fact he was a little quicker is what made the tight racing, with rossi usually on top. every rider tries to pass and pull out a lead, yes?

[motorheed100]

classic Rossi,he was allready in stoners head & then under his skin,basically had him in his back pocket & stoner crumbled!

complaining he was a bit rough riding,man its motorsport not strictly come dancin!

music?

@MichaelKnight52 Yeah, Lorenzo beat Rossi a few times, but it was not really hard after Rossi's accident. But I'm talking about 2011 Yamaha. Why he needs stop changing the bike? He just changed because he wants to have a new challenge. Change his riding style is also a bad idea. MotoGP was no fun last year. Stoner is a good rider, but he always try to get a big gap to the second. That's boring, isn't it? Rossi wants to have a fight against the other riders. Without him, MotoGP is quite boring.
