AG - Plz don't get bentouta shape and sore about this one - it's a subject everyone here is bound to have had an interest in.

What a race, hands up if you got up early to watch it if you are in the UK.

I did, 4am, made coffee and a bite then settled down to watch Mr Rossi go to work.

Fantastic motoGP race - one of the best finishes this year and what a way to wrap up the 4th WC !!

Rossi is the man - regardless of the machine.

J

I missed it! And have not seen a re-run either!

He is undoubtedly the best out there, proven now that he's won on a machine that simply isn't the best!

What we need now is Schumacher to get his ass out of the best car and do something similar in F1!

Now he's proven himself though, Rossi should do the right thing and move back to a decent manufacturer and wear his wings with pride again!!! :D

thats never gonna happen. HRC pissed him off too much, with all that "were going to distroy rossi" bull at the start of the year.

Go on then... burst my bubble, why don't you!! ;)

I still think it would be his best move. He's never going to win championships like he could on the Honda - not for some time to come, anyway.

You can bet the "Big H" are putting together a monster package to regain the title next season!

Just one thing....
As much as I hate Schuey, the Prancing Horse were nowhere when he joined. Won nothing for ages.

Yeah, but look at Rubens! If it hadn't been for Michael's input, the car would never have been where it is now (well, maybe not so quickly), and Rubens certainly wouldn't have been!

The Ferrari has been completely built around Schuey, which is why it took Rubens so long to catch up - he had to basically "learn" to drive Schuey's car.

I'd like to see what he could do in the newly revitalised BAR... he'd kick Button's ass, that's for sure.

Didn't Rossi drive the Ferrari a little while ago? I know he likes his rallying, and in "Faster - The Movie", he does say that maybe one day he will try racing cars.

Rumor has it that he stated he will retire with Yamaha. His contract is up at the end of next year so he'll probably switch to 4 wheels after that. Not sure if that would be F1 or WRC. He could also change his mind.

Rumors are great!!!

why not when he finnishes with yam move on to the duke.Now if he won a world title on the duke that would be something.I think last year the duke was better than the yam.

I'll be the first to let the cat outta the bag... Rossi will move to Ferrari F1 team after his contract with Yamaha expires or even sooner.

dont think hodgson would go along with that. hes having to ride it.
the only hope honda have of beating rossi, is finding a rider to develope the bike they bring out next year.and is quick and consistant enough to be top three week in week out. and hes just signed for yamaha too.

Didn't he run fast enough to qualify in his first time out in an F1 car or something?

Jeff what im saying is that last year the duke looked quicker than last years yam.Hodgson is using last years duke and its no match for this years yam.

well i can't wait to see the WCM/blata V6. now thats what we need to see rossi on. give all the others a chance. i just hope its not going to be a modified ford capri motor.
