I am so pleased vale is back on yamaha..we should all relish that this grand master of motorcycling has been here in our lifetime to watch and enjoy. I think we are very privileged to have lived through it all and been able to watch in incredible detail all that has happened...racers come and go, but rossi is something very special.
I just wish I could have seen some of the other greats like hailwood etc through the incredible media we have today.For sure Lorenzo is a truly fantastic racer , but he is still yet to prove he can live up to rossi's achievements. Its 8 yrs since that 2004 season, we should all respect that time has moved on, and appreciate rossi for what he has done, and the fact he is still driven to race at this level . IMO its the mark of a true GOAT.....I dont have expectations of more world championships, but ifsome wins come thi syear ...wow I will be delighted. Surely its us the viewers who will be the winners !
