As we all know the pinnacle of on road bike racing is the Moto Gp and one of the best riders is Valentino Rossi. He has accumulated over 100 victories and that is a remarkable effort. However jorge lorenzo (his team mate) is not far off the pace either. Is this to do with the yamaha bike which is fantastic, or the rider (because there is alot more skill required in riding bikes) so talent does vary but maybe not so much at Moto Gp level. However one thing is for sure Rossi is a skilled rider and his records and stats will tell you that. As we all know you cant be the best forever, age gets the better of us and i think lorenzo will be rossis new successor if Rossi decides to keep racing for the next few years.

One thing is for sure though rossi sure knows how to ride a bike and that yamaha of his is brilliant, when the dust settles, the best rider will have the most trophies in his cabinet.

Interesting, because rossi commented after the race in spain that he was glad he didnt win because it was lorenzos home race and he didnt want to upset the party, i think that rossi is holding back slightly to make the championship competitive. i think stoner has a good chance of winning the championship however he cant stay on his bike! he rides to hard and ends up paying for it! he doesnt have the maturity of someone like Rossi thats for sure
