Interview with Valentino Rossi

Really good interview of ‘The Doctor’ by Dieter Rencken. It’s not the usual PR bullshit replies but instead thoughtful replies because of the way the questions are asked.

Interesting to hear Rossi’s approach to the start of the 2011 season. He is usually always fast right out blocks and you would expect someone who is at his level to assume so but he is so experienced and so smart, he puts his success and ego aside in his answers - he knows how difficult it will be and doesn’t expect fireworks right away. It is the calmest interview of Rossi that I have ever read.

BTW, you can place Rossi right up there with any great sportsman that has walked on this earth. He is truly legendary.
