More quotes by Valentino Rossi
We have the 2004 M1 here for reference, which is useful. It worked well here last year we won the race and always did fast lap times so it will be interesting to compare it to the new bike and it will help us to understand which parts have improved.
Valentino Rossi
Our sport is dangerous. We risk the life out there, so we need to stay calm and focused and leave all the rest out.
Valentino Rossi
I try to have a different relationship with the bike. I don't give it a name, but I always speak with it. I don't know if the other riders do the same. This is not only a piece of metal - there is a soul. The bike talks back too. But not with a voice, with the components
Valentino Rossi
I race to win. If I am on the bike or in a car it will always be the same.
Valentino Rossi
I am able to ride the bike and think clearly about strategy and tyres. I also have positive thinking. I am very constructively critical.
Valentino Rossi
I am still here because I like to prove myself. I still like to ride the bike on track and enjoy the races. I still have good reasons to be in racing after so many years.
Valentino Rossi
How do Ferrari know what I'm doing next year when I don't know what I'm doing next week?
Valentino Rossi
I never race for records. The motivation to try to beat the record is not enough to continue. You have to enjoy it.
Valentino Rossi
To win the Championship in the first year will be hard. We need time to become competitive and win races.
Valentino Rossi
Maybe if Graziano make another work or another sport I wouldn't have had this passion to be a rider.
Valentino Rossi
I have always challenged myself and it's also important to learn from the rivals. Every rider has his own style, and you have to count on some elements that cannot be changed. On the contrary, the bike or the tires can change and it's important to adapt yourself. It's up to the rider to understand what he can change and how much he can adapt.
Valentino Rossi
To be a great motorbike racer, the most important thing is passion for the bike.
Valentino Rossi
Barcelona is a special track. I have always loved the layout of the circuit, but also the atmosphere and the fans are special. It has always been good fun.
Valentino Rossi
I like physical exercise. I actually like sports in general. I really like snowboarding and playing soccer, too.
Valentino Rossi
I have won on Honda and Yamaha so maybe it is interesting to win with a third team, Ducati, who are Italian.
Valentino Rossi
I'm very happy because I won a lot. I've won races and lived in a world that just gave me joy, so I remember it very positively.
Valentino Rossi
The speed is something dangerous but very exciting.
Valentino Rossi
I would have probably stolen cars - it would have given me the same adrenaline rush as racing.
Valentino Rossi
It is dangerous and unbelievably fast and entirely different from the kind of track I am used to racing on
Valentino Rossi
In 2009, I didn't like that Yamaha signed such a young and competitive teammate [Jorge Lorenzo]. But now everything is different. We are more mature. Everyone knows his role and position. Things are clear.
Valentino Rossi
