To be honest I was surprised he carried on after Simoncelli.I am very pleased he is calling time on racing.
The near death crash last season? Ought to have been the last nod to getting out.
He is an absolute star, and a living legend.
Top top man.
He's crap. He's only won races because he's had the best bike.The Doctor is hanging up his helmet at the end of the season after 25 years of motorcycle racing. 9 times a world champion and an absolute character of the sport!
Forza Vale!
You obviously don’t watch MotoGP then.He's crap. He's only won races because he's had the best bike.
Once the bike wasn't any good nor was he. It seems to me that instead of working it through he's given up. He's a quitter.You obviously don’t watch MotoGP then.
He’s 42 I think he’s entitled to hang up the helmet after 25 years at the top level.Once the bike wasn't any good nor was he. It seems to me that instead of working it through he's given up. He's a quitter.

The Ducati was a hard bike to ride and only two people have ever been really able to tame it and that’s Casey Stoner. Maybe Dovi of recent times and he was unlucky to not win the championship.Remind me how he did at Ducati? IIRC he only started being competitive again when he rejoined Yamaha. He couldn't do it when when he didn't have the best equipment, and even with it he could only manage 2nd place.
We're not talking F1. Given the equipment Rossi has done nothing for the best part of 10 years.The Ducati was a hard bike to ride and only two people have ever been really able to tame it and that’s Casey Stoner. Maybe Dovi of recent times and he was unlucky to not win the championship.
He hasn’t always had the best bike and the gap between the manufacturers is a lot closer than Formula Hamilton. How many different race winners did they have in the season of 2020 of MotoGP? 14 races and 9 different winners! How about F1 in 2020? 17 races and 5 different winners! My point rests.
And… are you saying he’s not a legend? He didn’t win 9 world championships by beating a load of nobodies! The riders he was up against are some of the greatest the sport has ever seen. And the champions that beat him in the last 10 years are some great riders. I know exactly what you’re trying to get at because of my opinion towards Hamilton. You’re trying to class Rossi as the same.We're not talking F1. Given the equipment Rossi has done nothing for the best part of 10 years.
