A true champion never settles for 2nd place. Brilliant.

There is no measure on this man's talent and ability. One of the true
greats. None of his contemporaries, though excellent riders in their own
right, have an answer. Superlatives fail to do justice in some instances.

Did you watch the pre-race "Rossi special" video?.
AWESOME!. That guy had talent already as a kid.
They showed videoclips of Rossi at the age 5-6years maybe, driving a gocart
around rallystyle opposite lock :D
looked great.. and they also showed him when he drove real rallycars, and he
was awesome at Rally Masters, almost as fast as the real WRC-drivers!.
Cant wait for the english rally when he is gonna drive the Peggy 206 WRC :)
Not to mention that Rossi can actually say nice words about his competitors
too. He thought Checa was from another planet, driving that fast :)
omg.. im getting too e***d now.. time to do something else :)
