In MCN today:-

"Lorenzo cannot come to Yamaha and think he is as important as me"

....and Valentino isn't an arrogant shite?! Yeah right, lol!


Poor VR is clearly rattled by the young pretender.....long may it continue! :)

He maybe an arrogant shite but I think he has earned the right to be. Even if you don't like the guy you have to admit he was born to ride.
Re: Exactly the reason why I do not like Rossi - what a cock!

There never has been any doubt in my mind that Rossi is the best, have no issues with that whatsoever.

Just pisses me off that all his fans can call Lorenzo arrogant and Rossi is the most arrogant of the lot imo....and the worst loser!
Re: Exactly the reason why I do not like Rossi - what a cock!

Well I couldnt care less about personality its what they do on the track that impresses me and to be honest if they wernt confident (arrogant, cocky) they would never be as good as they are.

Wel if they wernt confident (arrogant, cocky) they would never be as good as they are.
:plus1: Very true indeed. So leave Biaggi and Lorenzo alone then! lol! :nono:

Im a big fan of both of them.

Re: Exactly the reason why I do not like Rossi - what a cock!

Yea... thats an arrogant thing to say, but lets face it...

In the world of motorcycle racing, especially to moto gp and yamaha, NO ONE is more important than Rossi. The fact that he knows it makes him smart.

You may not like him, I never really cared for Michael Jordan or Tiger Woods.. but where may their sport be today without their place in history?
Re: Exactly the reason why I do not like Rossi - what a cock!

it seems as though that some of the hidden animosity between the two may be coming into the light now. who knows, but i still like Rossi better.
Re: Exactly the reason why I do not like Rossi - what a cock!

I don't bother buying MCN any more, they come out with the same crap every week, most of the stuff they print is bs.
Re: Exactly the reason why I do not like Rossi - what a cock!

Rossi loves to mess with other riders heads and it works. He loves to appear that it's all so easy and he's just having fun out there like it's a big game. The mental aspect of this whole thing cannot be overstated. It drives the other riders crazy but they work hard at not letting that out because they know Rossi feeds on it.

Really though, Rossi is number one and it'll be a couple of seasons of great success before Lorenzo or anybody else fills that spot and by then, Rossi will have moved one to his next challenge whatever that might be. Maybe Ducati!

Arrogant - probably
True - definitely

The guy has the best record ever in the top class.
He brought Yamaha a world title at a time when it considered that Honda was the only bike that could win. He has backed it up with several more.

Is he more important to Yamaha than Lorenzo - hell yes.

I dont think it was Rossi who started the split team - that push came from Lorenzo.
Rossi got on quite well with Edwards, so its not like he cant get on with teammates.
Clearly Rossi and Lorenzo arent best mates - Rossi seems to get on with Stoner a lot better than his own teammate. But of cause that can happen, being in the same team doesnt mean you will get on as friends.

Lorenzo might be Yamaha's future.
But Rossi is (and has been for a while) their #1 rider.

Biaggi is the worst loser and the biggest ass*ole that ever set foot on a moto gp bike, and could never win more than a 250 title and still think he is God.

Biaggi did win 4 world 250 championships though, and one of those being on a Honda, which at the time was way below the standard of the Aprillia's, 13 500/gp victories, 57 podiums in 500/gp, 33 podiums and 4 wins in world superbikes, not that bad:idunno:. He nearly beat Mick Doohan to the title in his first year in 500's.

Nearly did it once compared to how many times Rossi won? Nearly doesn't mean he did it, and all those stats you listed can not even compare to what Rossi has done, and at least Rossi doesn't blame everybody but himself when he loses. The point I was making earlier was more about his character not his skill.
Re: Exactly the reason why I do not like Rossi - what a cock!

Yes, Biaggi's stats are crap compared to Rossi, but so are everyone else's, apart from Stoner in the last few years. The the problem now in moto gp is there are no characters in it now, all the riders are to busy kissing Rossi's backside, and afaid to upset him, just like the press always are, but now Lorenzo is on the scene, Rossi don't like it, because Lorenzo is willing to dish it on the track as well, some of the riders see Rossi coming and they let him pass so easy, without putting up no fight, as they don't want to upset him, Rossi also don't like it because Lorenzo is getting some attention. And yes, Rossi is one of the best of all time, im not doubting that, it just gets a bit boring that the press suck up to him so much.
Bring on 2010, i don't think Rossi is going to have it all his own way next year.:stirpot:

Yes very true, it looks quite promising, Stoner with his new and as he say better bike, Lorenzo with his great talent and a year of learning under his belt. Hopefully Honda will give Danny a decent bike to ride as well, of course let us not forget the lone star man himself. Gleefully smiling here :smilebig: :smilebig:
Lets face it .... the man brought 2 race teams to the very top and holds 8 world championships. These teams got there based on his development and rode there on his riding skills. When your resume looks like that you can pretty much say whatever the hell you like!

Untill such time as someone comes along to challenge Rossi in every race on every track and makes him work for it ALL the time I'd expect nothing less of him!!!

Go ahead Yamaha ... make the same mistake Honda did years ago and claim the bike is the reason hes that good or claim you can find another racer to do the same. You'll see Rossi pack **** so fast and be on a Ducati kickin your ass you won't have a clue where to start picking up the peices!!!

:plus1:And we are talking about an individual here that no one can take on when everything is in place....which happens MORE often than not.....mmmhhh something to do with the rider maybe:idunno: Get with the program chumps !!! Rossi is ROSSI and stands ahead of a lot of the other riders,,,,(previous World championships proven)
