Lots of riders have their style of winning in a race. Doohan let you behing 5 laps and than he just disappear. Casey, Lorenzo and Marquez have the same style, to dissappear from start and kill you mentally. But Rossi had the hardest style, it's called 'cat and mouse'. Let you pass him, then he passes you, and in the last lap or lap early he just passes you and win. That is the hardest thing you can play with your opponents. That's why he is master class

I am italian and the difference between Rossi and other sport millionaire is that Rossi still talk with anyone in his native village or wherever he goes in the world, He doesn't look down on anyone just because he's famous. He was and has remained the same village boy who helps others. Sometimes you can also see him in London where he has a house, and loves the English, and unless he's in a hurry with his family you can talk to him comfortably. Rossi has maintained the roots of a simple boy, difficult to see in other famous ones. And this makes the difference of why people love him as well as the skill of his motorcycle riding.

This is one of the best documentaries I have seen on Rossi and I have seen many! I loved the fast paced coverage of his career... there were no fillers in the doco, and hence no boring bits at all. I'm so honoured to have followed Rossi's career and watched him race live at Phillip Island. What a legend, and look at what he's still doing for the sport. He's doing more than any of the Spanish riders + Dorna combined! What happened to him in 2015 was disgraceful and MM admitted he provoked the incident because he preferred his Spanish compatriot to win the championship. If not for that incident, the broken leg and moving to Ducati, he could have had a couple more Championships and cemented his place statistically as the best ever.

Your recap of his career - and your clear understanding of his charisma, and your clear description of the way we were all on the edges of our seats watching and wondering what the _fuck_ he was going to do next - really touched on all my favourite memories of that time in the sport. Except the way he used to run Biaggi down and force errors out of him in his first 500cc races. Those performances were the foreshadowing for how creatively Rossi would use his immense talent tell a dramatic, exciting story in every race. What a showman. What a rider. What a psychologist.

I think a lot of people who just watch motogp without knowing don’t understand how unique he was. He was taller than everyone, heavier, and that allowed him to run deeeeeeep into the corners and do things most people don’t understand. Also, his work ethic and era of riding were so crazy. Unlike now, those bikes were better than the riders could ever take them too. Just Schumacher the F1 cars of that era, talent could win races not pole position. Back to GP, there was only one rider who was “better than” Rossi. And we all know that was Stoner. Had Stoner been able to do the grip and grin bs better that would of been what senna and Schumacher would have evolved into. Stoner was so fast and capable of doing things on a bike that were ludicrous. Rossi even said that when Stoner wasn’t hurt and on point, no one could beat. Stoner and Rossi are my two favorite riders of all time. Senna is and will forever be my favorite F1 driver. Go watch the documentary Senna, you’ll cry. I did and I’m man enough to say it. Senna was a gift to this world not just a F1 driver. Schumacher is the goat but like all Austrian-German drivers they are cold and calculating, exacting. Senna was loose and beautiful.

Rossi. I usually loose interest on any motorsport when it's alwayscthecsame winner and everybody behind kinda stagnates. But man.. Watching Rossi to race was something else. Grazie mille, doctore! Besides the fact that his greatness was the same (or even higher) outside the track. He "created" many riders that even challenged him and raced alongside. His happiness and glare in his eyes (even whike in.. Ahem.. Ducati) were something I have never seen in a MotoGP rider. He will always be the Great One (unless Oliveira starts to make magic tricks.. Which I do wish he to start doing).

Thanks for watching the video I appreciate it

[@m0redread]

The frame on that ducati was fucked.

(Cough) Verstappen this F1 season (cough (cough)

I love your analogy of Jordan and Lebron. Lebron might look good on paper, but he never commanded the floor like Jordan. Jordan was more clutch and a bigger threat than Lebron will ever be. As a kid, and a Bulls hater, you knew when Jordan had the ball, it was bad news for the opposing team. Vale is such a character. Embassador of MotoGP, even when he's out racing a BMW in Fanatec. Great video Goon. Keep up the awesome content. I really hope you mix it up and throw in some automotive history too. I just like the way you story tell. Little fact, I don't even ride, but I love bikes too. I love automotive and motorcycle history. It's so interesting how companies and riders battle it out with pride. The characters bumping heads. You don't see that now besides the soap opera of F1, which is kind of cringe if you ask me.

[@BornAGoon]

very true about Jordan

[@Duc6H4per]

You are one of the only creators that i really like watching, it is so entertaining and it has a lot of information in it to. Very good content!❤

Yamahas current situation tells me that Rossis age wasn’t the problem it was Yamaha.

[@dylan.dog1]

yes but if he was young like when he went to yamaha he would have won like he did when yamaha was a bottom team and really bad bike but he managed to won anyway, so i think age at some point matter...but you're right if he had a good bike he could have fight for champioship even when he was old

[@Maarcis12]

ngl, this is very well done video, i myself used to watch a lot of MotoGP as a kid and even play a lot of MotoGP videogames alongside other racing games and to me, Valentino Rossi is simply like Michael Schumacher, Michael Jordan and Wayne Gretzky, a synonym to a certain sport. And now i'm glad that he's going to be taking part in this years Le Mans 24 hour race, the man's got a sheer enthusiasm for both 2 wheel and 4 wheel racers. Keep up the good work, Goon.

[@romano3771]

Even people who have never seen a motorcycle race in their lives know who Valentino Rossi is.

[@stanza77]

This channel is really knocking it out if the park with these …….👍🏾

[@BornAGoon]

thank you

[@bimmerboi_hutch]

Miss watching him ride. Such an epic athelete and I agree with the statements in the short film. Brought back some great memories! Thank you

[@cosmicnomad9324]

Amazingly narrated story of the legend " The doctor".. Thank you..

[@lightningmcqueen181]

It's one thing to come back & ride with a broken leg BUT HE HAD A COMPOUND BREAK🫣.THATS BRUTAL.. And you can see the break through the shape of his leg as he flies through the air

[@BornAGoon]

I know what a beast

[@rzaultra165]

The right time and the idea of speaking and creating stories are very much needed. Making your story hurt and demeaning other people in an elegant way is a skill that no one else has. He is able to create enemies and is able to destroy his enemies, making victims, without making people realize it.

I don't believe Americans can ever understand Valentino Rossi. The evidence is just too strong.

[@adamrowland7447]

Hmmmm... maybe! As an American who loves Valentino Rossi, the only time I don't "understand" him is when he speaks Italian. But your opinion of the ignorant Americans shows your ignorance, ironically.

[@Grizzman99]

Yep us stupid Americans….

[@rwb_gary6355]

Absolute legend! Also, the narration on this video was wonderful so thank you! Much love 🍀

[@chrisbee9643]

2004 is the season that proves he is the GOAT!

[@BornAGoon]

for sure

[@5tereo1]

great video , ive been following rossi his entire career so this was essentially a little time machine. reminiscing on the simoncelli era was beautiful. Thanks

[@BornAGoon]

Good stuff!

[@Peanutdenver]

Forza Vale! The GOAT of MotoGP.

[@adrianp7475]

[@rockerboyka94]

His longevity was unreal. You mentioned the various rivalries he had from Biaggi to Marquez and he stuck around at the highest level through those generation of riders.

[@ramapur6851]

I wonder what happens when you have this much skill, if there is any bike that excites him or challenges him?

[@BornAGoon]

Probably

[@csrtwolegends1265]

Maybe turbo charged h2r with supercharger

[@joebar52]

Maybe not a bike, but he said he was afraid of the Isle of Man TT

[@dnf7778]

Killer video. Miss watching the legend, The Doctor!

[@athenaax3489]

I was named after Rossi, its my first name
