MotoGP: Valentino Rossi: 20 years ago today...

 

 

 

MotoGP legend Valentino Rossi made his Grand Prix debut 20-years ago today, March 31st, in the 1996 Malaysian 125cc race at Shah Alam.

 

Here is a photo of the then 16-year-old at the event

The Italian finished the race in sixth place, 7.379s behind countryman Stefano Perugini, but went on to win in Brno later that year - the first of his 112 victories so far.

 

Rossi - now 37 and the oldest rider on the MotoGP grid - has won nine world championships, missing out at the final round in 2006 and 2015.

 

The Doctor will continue his quest for a tenth title during this weekend's event in Argentina.

"It's important for the rider to understand that he doesn't need to do anything differently to what led to his titles: focus on being a rider, go as fast as possible and let the engineers do their work. "This, in Valentino's time, was lost. He wasted energy, with the best of intentions, but without results.

Ete na..cine mai e frate si Juan Martinez ala, sa-si dea el cu parerea? El si diletantul de Dovi... Stai sa vina BB sa ne explice lumina si adevarul! ;)

By Randy Mamola

 

 

 

Valentino Rossi's masterful victory in the Spanish Grand Prix elevates him to the status of genius and sends a clear message to Yamaha, argues Randy Mamola.

 

Initially this column was going to have a different protagonist, but the race we enjoyed on Sunday has forced me to change the script. It's the least that Valentino deserves after what he did at Jerez – not just taking pole and victory, but delivering a message.

 

It's true that the conditions at 2pm on Sunday probably favoured him more than anyone else, but that doesn't take away anything from what he achieved. No one in his right mind would cast a doubt on Rossi's magic, but last Sunday's victory elevates him to the status of genius. We have to keep in mind that we are talking about someone who has won everything, and who is also 37 years old.

 

Besides what he did on track, what I find more fascinating is what he did off it.

 

Like most fans, I follow social media, and that has allowed me to see a key aspect of his strategy in terms of the motivational training he undertakes. At home, Valentino surrounds himself with teenage hopefuls and competes against them.

 

Imagine for a moment what an 18-year-old Moto3 rider wants to do when he's racing against the greatest. The only thing he wants is to beat him so he can show the talent within him. That elevates the competition of these training sessions - which take place on a gravel track and with very powerful bikes - to the highest level. Oddly enough, those are quite similar to the conditions under which he raced at Jerez.

 

The race was 32 seconds slower than last year, and that was basically down to the lack of grip suffered by most. The temperatures rose a lot on Sunday and the tyres, with a harder carcass, struggled because they didn't stop spinning. But there's an element which becomes key here: the winglets. Everybody talks about them when the subject of safety comes up, and at Jerez they had a very obvious impact on the results.

 

One of the main objectives of the winglets is to stop the front tyre from lifting under acceleration. This helps reduce the effect of the anti-wheelie system, so the engine pushes more. On a slippery surface, the rear tyre slides more.

 

We must not forget that the bikes which struggled the most were the most powerful ones. For instance, the Suzukis had a pretty good race (fifth and sixth), and the same happened to the 2014-spec Ducatis of Laverty (ninth) and Barbera (10th).

 

Having said that, Valentino was the man who coped best with these conditions, the Italian using all his experience and resources at his disposal. And, most likely, the news of Jorge Lorenzo's move to Ducati had a clear influence.

 

Rossi's message was to give it all to show Yamaha that it has not made a mistake in betting on him – to make it clear that, apart from selling bikes, he is still strong enough to fight for victories.

 

Probably, looking at how the championship had gone until now, no one expected that. Not even Marc and Jorge, who are now asking themselves the same question as us: Will Vale be able to repeat that?

 

We'll have part of the answer at Le Mans in two weeks' time.

Din articolul postat de colegul PTR, cei care sustineau ca aripioarele au rol pe franare, ar trebui sa retina asta: "One of the main objectives of the winglets is to stop the front tyre from lifting under acceleration. This helps reduce the effect of the anti-wheelie system, so the engine pushes more. On a slippery surface, the rear tyre slides more. " Asadar, intuisem bine.

Corect! Insa la randul meu imi permit sa subliniez "one of the main objectives". Adica sunt mai multe.

Iar reducerea wheelie-ului se face tocmai cu apasare aerodinamica suplimentara. Aceeasi apasare care ajuta si pe franare (in limitele potentei cauciucului) fara a creste masa. ;)

Da, cu mentiunea ca pe franare, incarcarea aerodinamica va scadea progresiv, odata cu decelerarea si va incepe sa creasca odata cu accelerarea.

Am primit acum o ora, interesant.

We showed, as MotoGP Fans, that our opinion counts and we that will not roll over and give up just because the pressure is on. Sponsors and advertisers joined our cause and we did make a difference !!

Sadly, we were not able to get justice in 2015 for Valentino. BUT, we feel we owe it to the sport, and to Valentino, to show the same fighting spirit with which he has led the sport for so many years as MotoGP's Number 1 Ambassador.

We all know that Valentino was, and still is, the true 2015 World Champion, and we would like to make a statement to the world that makes it clear, that we are not prepared to have last year's events swept away and forgotten.

To that end we would like to call upon the 750,000+ supporters of this petition to stand up, in a united front, to make a HUGE public declaration in recognition of the disservice to Valentino last year.

We invite you to join us in the delivery of a 2015 People's Champion of the World Trophy. We have been in discussion with innovative technology creators and have been working on a very unique "Augmented Technology" Award that will allow us to create a very special trophy for Valentino ... one that allows each and every one of us to deliver a personal interactive message to Valentino !!!

By utilising Augmented Technology it is possible to have a trophy which Valentino can view through interactive 3D technology, allowing each of us to give a very personal message of celebration, encouragement and thanks. How cool is that?

So, if you would like to be a part of this amazing gift to Valentino and and make a big statement to the world of MotoGP - then please follow this link to register you interest.

At this stage no money is being requested. Once we know how many of you wish to take part we will then email you with the donation needed. Any surplus funds collected will be awarded to charities of Valentino's choice.

Please join us by registering here
