More quotes by Valentino Rossi
Giving yourself threads doesn't mean you don't believe in yourself in my opinion.
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
The great fights with your strongest rivals are always the biggest motivation. When you win easily it's not the same taste.
Valentino Rossi
I feel 100% a Yamaha rider in my heart. I had a long career and raced with several factory bikes, but the highlight of my career is undoubtedly with Yamaha.
Valentino Rossi
Maybe if Graziano make another work or another sport I wouldn't have had this passion to be a rider.
Valentino Rossi
The tragic incident of Luis Salom reminds us that our sport, our passion, is dangerous. We know it but, in a way, we don't think about it.
Valentino Rossi
I was lucky. My father raced bikes. He gave me the passion very early. I had my first bike when I was three or four years old.
Valentino Rossi
I have designs I like applied to my helmet, motorcycle, riding suits, gloves,and boots. I have a designer friend of mine put the designs on them for me. I think a livery on the helmet is significant in expressing a rider's personality.
Valentino Rossi
I am focused on racing. I enjoy it. It's a great feeling to be back fighting for the title.
Valentino Rossi
It is dangerous and unbelievably fast and entirely different from the kind of track I am used to racing on

Riding a race bike is an art - a thing that you do because you feel something inside.
Valentino Rossi
I would have probably stolen cars - it would have given me the same adrenaline rush as racing.
Valentino Rossi
In my opinion we are at the limit now, and 17 races is really too much. With all the testing that we do now, it means we're always on the bike and it's quite difficult.
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
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
In 2002 the Yamaha was at more or less the same level as the Honda, better in some ways, worse in others. But in the winter of last year between 2002 and 2003, Honda made a big step forward and it seemed as if Yamaha couldn't quite match that improvement.
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'm really happy, and beating Marc [Marquez] at the very last chicane gives me an extra boost.
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 am completely focused on being strong, riding fast, and enjoying myself. With the new generation of riders, only the chronometer counts. I need to be faster than them on track.
