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.

To be a great motorbike racer, the most important thing is passion for the bike.

I'm really happy, and beating Marc [Marquez] at the very last chicane gives me an extra boost.
Valentino Rossi
Image
I don't like being famous - it is like a prison. And driving for Ferrari would make it far worse.
Valentino Rossi
Image
How do Ferrari know what I'm doing next year when I don't know what I'm doing next week?
Valentino Rossi
Image
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.

Maybe the bike is more dangerous, but the passion for the car for me is second to the bike.

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.

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.

Our sport is dangerous. We risk the life out there, so we need to stay calm and focused and leave all the rest out.

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.

Maybe if Graziano make another work or another sport I wouldn't have had this passion to be a rider.
Valentino Rossi
Image
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
Image
Motivation is the key. More than training, more than experience or age, motivation counts. You have to ask yourself: 'Why am I racing?' I race because I like it, because I'm really enjoying it. I like to set up my bike and ride it on track. After 20 years in the GPs I'm still highly motivated. Everything else is a consequence.

Once the races begin it's more difficult and there is never that much time for testing.
Valentino Rossi
Image
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.
Valentino Rossi
Image
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.

To win the Championship in the first year will be hard. We need time to become competitive and win races.
Valentino Rossi
Image
I race to win. If I am on the bike or in a car it will always be the same.
