Rossi is a fcuking legend!!

The way he rides an inferior bike to Gibernau but totally outclasses him as a rider is amazing.

I want to be like Rossi.

Rossi is worthy of being classed as one of the best riders to grace a Motorbike along with legends like Wayne Rainey, Wayne Gardener, Kevin Schwanz, Mick Doohan Randy mamola and so on!

Yamaha had nothing to shout about until they signed Rossi and as soon as he sat on that bike it became a winner!!

Did'nt Rossi do a lap in Shumachers Ferrari on a F1 track and put in a lap time that would have been sufficent for 6th on the grid in that years Grand Prix at that track.

Yeah Rossi is a legend! He's said that he wants to try formula 1 out before.
That would be legendary if he went to F1 and won. I wouldn't bother though, MotoGp is a 100x more entertainment value that bloody f1!

I did'nt think he was gonna be able to get passed after Gibernau got past him when Rossi went wide on the last lap.

I think he wants to take the motor racing world by storm and win every type of championship that there is. I say fair play to him if he goes into formula one or rally as it will be a new challenge for him

But he did apparently bump the other guy out the way didnt he to get passed!

he is a class rider, the ayrton senna of moto gp!
Yeh he did a blistering fast f1 drive, he has the mentality of how the car works which most racing drivers dont, schumacher does but i doubt he would be any good on bikes!
Plus i hate the dirty crout

My love affair with Rossi started in 1998 when my mate had a Aprilia RS50 Rossi rep when he used to ride in the 125 and 250 class for Aprilia.

He was amazing back then.

I like the fact that Biaggi has the factory Honda this year and is still no where near the front!

rossi is a ledgend, on the fact of his dad he raced in 500cc world grandprix and was a top rider as well

i hope if rossi wins the championship again he'll move to F1, just to show he's a modern day john surtees

Made me laugh watching the GP at the weekend, the commentators were writing rossi off saying he looks to be only just keeping up, his tyres aren't looking to be working well with the surface! At this point i thought 'rossi ain't gona settle for second, he's one of the best for still riding his heart out on worn tyres'

YOU guessed it, away Rossi went, even down the straights the Honda wasn't near him, yet earlier in the race they were moaning about how much faster it is!

Come on rossi, looks to be a good season lined up after the clash at the wknd!

Rossi is my hero I love the fact he sits on gibernau's back wheel for 90% of the race and then passes him at the end. Every time without fail. A natural born crowd pleaser IMO.

And rossi done nothing wrong on the last corner, he went for the gap and gibernau turned into him, its called racing, the commentators are knob jockeys. The best bit was he done a massive wheelie over the finish line to properly piss off the spanish crowd
