More quotes by Valentino Rossi
Fortunately during my career I have won more or less everything, so I need to enjoy it to have the right motivation.
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
Riding a race bike is an art - a thing that you do because you feel something inside.
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
If I test the car for a year I can be quite competitive the next season.
Valentino Rossi
Friendship is very important to me. With some friends, we've known each other since we were kids and it's a very strong relationship. They always tell me what they think even when I am wrong. It's great to share with them the best moments. I also have many friends in the team, and I like to share my passion with them.
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
The work that we do during the winter is very important we have a new bike and it's important to develop it during this time.
Valentino Rossi
However I am looking forward to the two new Grands Prixs both Shanghai and Laguna Seca are fantastic tracks and it will be good to race at them.
Valentino Rossi
I am focused on racing. I enjoy it. It's a great feeling to be back fighting for the title.
Valentino Rossi
But I could also start F1 or rallying. I love rallying much more.
Valentino Rossi
I don't like being famous - it is like a prison. And driving for Ferrari would make it far worse.
Valentino Rossi
You try to do a technical feature: in front of me I had a strong rider who brakes hard and it's difficult to pass.
Valentino Rossi
It is dangerous and unbelievably fast and entirely different from the kind of track I am used to racing on
Valentino Rossi
I'm lucky because I don't feel too much pressure - it's only in the last hour before the race, and even then it's good, positive pressure.
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
Once the races begin it's more difficult and there is never that much time for testing.
Valentino Rossi
I have so much respect for my opponents many of them watched the races as little children and were supporting me!
Valentino Rossi
Giving yourself threads doesn't mean you don't believe in yourself in my opinion.
Valentino Rossi
I race to win. If I am on the bike or in a car it will always be the same.
Valentino Rossi
