yes, and the fact he fell out massively with honda over his contract, as he wanted a few thing,s including his own sponsors, and not repsol

Aprilia 
He was winning 125 & 250 Championships when me and my mates all had Aprilias, we were dead proud, my mate even had his replica 125. Was a beauty.

funny though.
I read in his autobiography that he fell out with Honda because they wouldnt let him keep the NSR500 in Nastro Azzurro colours when he won the championship.

Personally I dont like they guy, but my thoughts are he should stay in Moto Gp and prove he is the worlds best,
as for the first time in ages he's got real competition that at the moment actually are racing faster than him..
Marco melandri's finally 'come of age' and is showing the two gp's he won last year werent just luck,
Stoner and pedrosa are two very talented riders, and i'm pretty sure its pedrosa that has won more gp's than rossi had at the same age.
hayden could be competition just slightly off the pace
and Capirossi and Sete have proven at the right tracks they'll be trouble.
It wont be easy this year for Rossi and I dont think he'll do it personally..
MCN stated he wants to start work on the new 800cc engine now before Honda do to have the edge, so am fairly confident he will stay in Gp for 2007, and what if he doesnt win the first year of 800's??
