More quotes by Valentino Rossi
The speed is something dangerous but very exciting.

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.

Giving yourself threads doesn't mean you don't believe in yourself in my opinion.

The great fights with your strongest rivals are always the biggest motivation. When you win easily it's not the same taste.

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.

I'm done with F1 unfortunately. I'm too old, the train has passed
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
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
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
My approach to the races hasn't changed in my 20-year career. If I have the chance to attack and to pass, I do it, trying to get the best possible result.
Valentino Rossi
It's a big, big advantage because understanding what changes we might make takes time and it takes time to work out settings and to understand everything about the new machine.
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
I like physical exercise. I actually like sports in general. I really like snowboarding and playing soccer, too.
