@@dayleashleynolasco5765 Quote from one of his race engineers in an interview with Mat Oxley: “At our first test with him at Eastern Creek we were doing his first debrief, with all the Japanese engineers sitting there, pens hovering, waiting to take notes and get his first impression of the bike. And he says, ‘Well, I need two things: I need a cage in the back of the garage with a dancing girl in it and we’ve got to get some beers in the fridge’. Then he gets up and walks out. There were six Japanese engineers sitting around the table and they didn’t know what to do, what to say or what had just happened. With his talent, he should’ve been world champion, but it was never going to happen.”
I saw his first UK lap in 125s in 1996 with my now deceased older son and I saw his last lap in the UK 2021 with my youngest son. That was a very emotional Sunday for me. Thanks for the entertainment over so many years Rossi.
This smiling guy is a live legend! Particularly is the goat of motorcycle racing ever! As a Brazilian it's nice see him talk about Alex Barros and how he learnt some Barros's riding skills. Grazie Rossi!
Watched this with a tear in my eye. The end of an era. Such an incredible influence on this sport, without Rossi it’s just not going to have that extra spark 😢
For me Rossi will always be the GOAT, The only rider that has had me out of my seat screaming at the t.v. or live at the track urging him to victory, the man has such passion and drive, such vitality, such humour and cheek, I will miss him dearly on track, his style is second to none, and old school gent, but I agree with him on deciding to retire, and wish him all the best for the future, BUT most of all I wish to thank him for the years of entertainment from us, his fans. MotoGP will never be the same without him.
I could watch interviews with Vale all day long, such a wonderful character. Although it was sad to see the emotion in his eyes when he saw Marco's name.
Rossi has beaten every single world champion he has faced in his career that really is unbelievable But what I believe makes Rossi just that bit more lovable is the fact that he is a lovely down to earth man What a legend he is he will be missed by everyone in motorsport
He said the raiders now are modern athlete, they concern about the food and lifestyle. This is Vale, the old man with the old ways, and still capable of riding and competing with those modern riders. Amazing...
Seeing him talking about Alexandre Barros so fondly, to me, as a brazilian, is a motive of pride, and one more reason to admire this legend of the sport.
Vale has done so much for motorcycle racing in all classes, even none biking people know who he is. I'm old enough to remember Barry Sheene, Kenny Roberts and alike, but Rossi truly is the goat... on and off the track. His story isn't over yet 🙂
No other rider can’t break Rossi record….he’s is a true legend in motogp modern eras…be a world champion with different team and factory…that what make Rossi so special…especially when he move from Honda to Yamaha…that why Rossi have so many fans in the world of motogp…truly a legend…
The connection between suzi and Vale has always been something special. I feel like he truly opens up and is natural with Suzi. There is something about their conversations which is so different to anyone else, and its difficult to explain...but its something very special
Me and my friends are planning to go with our motorcycles from Sweden to Italy next year......My plan is to visit Tavullia and if I am lucky to meet Vale there....It woul´d be one of my "Before I Kick The Bucket moment"! I was in Rimini 2015 with my friends.....And we where speaking to many Italians who have #46 ,#58 and # 04 for their favouriteriders......So sad that Marco Simoncelli could not be in the race.....but I am so happy that they have named the circuit in SanMarino after him!!! Hats off to his family and I can only say that he was one off the best fearless rider ever!!! R.I.P Marco
I met him at Silverstone in 2013 totally by total chance as he left the post qualifying press briefing. He signed my (dirty) VR46 Ducati cap because it was the only thing I had to hand, and I took an amazing photo of him with my DSLR. I still can't believe this actually happened. I also can't believe I patted him on the shoulder as I wished him good luck for the race. Talk about star struck.
All of these MotoGP riders are remarkable talents, although over the years I enjoyed watching VR persuade his bike beyond its capabilities to win, a very great racer and decent honest bloke. Thanks for the memories Valentino.
When she talks about Simoncelli, we could see a sorrow in his face. It ended all of his domination when Stoner and later Marquez took the crown for the 7 consecutive years.
Yeah the Hayden and Simoncelli parts were hard. He was laughing the whole video but those names came up his smile left and he started blinking a lot (I don't know why, probably to stop himself from crying). So sad 😔
The administration we feel for Rossi extends beyond his legendary track skills, sure there are other great riders but none have that special quality that he has nor do they bring the sheer joy that he brought to racing. I’m glad he got out in good health. Thanks for some great times Dr Rossi.
Great interview Suzi, Valentino has brought more to the sport providing another step change. Perhaps in the same way Barry sheene did. In many ways the humour and humanisation of characters in the sport connects the masses to it . It will be a long time before we see his like again, thanks Vale
We need more of this. This is awesome! What a great guy ! He did a silly picture with me after a crash he had. And still smiling and being super friendly. I was amazed. I ask for the pic like in a shy way expecting nothing .... he is the best!.
Grande Valentino! Kimi Raikkonen and Valentino Rossi, this year will have a sad moment at the end, but both gave me hundreds of hours with big moments. Grazie Vale Kiitos Kimi
He doesn't have hard feelings on Lorenzo, just with Marquez. About Lorenzo he was talking about when Jorge arrived in Yamaha as the next big thing so the team was starting to focus more and more on him instead of Vale who was suffering this situation. That's why he moved to Ducati in 2011
@@aboredperson4202 way back in 2015 when rossi dominated half of the season, and lorenzo is closing the gap in championship points. in sepang, Marc is capable of fighting in the front with Lorenzo, but marc being sneaky slowing down his pace and confronting rossi which lead a contact with rossi in sepang. and rossi had to make a start from the last position in valencia.
It should've been his 11th. Yamaha's reliability issues and Edward's idiot crash at Assen cost him the title in 2006. Like Mir, I will never recognize Hayden as a true world champion, just being in the right place at the right time.
I agree and he could have had three more titles if he did not go to Ducati. The GOAT always. MM and Lorenzo definitely impacted his tenth title, but karma works in amazing ways and MM is not in a good place and cannot fall and get up for ever! We all age.
Pour moi, le plus grand pilote de tous les temps toujours simple marrant même tranquille sur de lui et quelle longévité il a été le meilleur dans TOUTES les catégories Cette figure emblématique marquera à tout jamais l'histoire de la moto EL MAESTRO BASTA !!?
Valen .te vamos a extrañar nos hicistes vivir momentos inolvidables adrenalina pura lejos el más aguerrido piloto de los últimos tiempos una Argentina que los sigue siempre .que todo lo que emprendas sea siempre lo mejor besos mil !!!
It is indeed true that all of those 175 people riding in the sport have in some way, shape or form has been inspired by Valentino Rossi. No amount of championship wins can ever get close to leaving that as a legacy. I haven't thought of that, interesting find BT Sport.
175 racers and he's beaten all of them. The one he didn't beat he faced once and was in front till he crashed. The greatest ever. Just amazing how many stories this guy has
The guy is like Rain man ...He is soooo intelligent and his memory is incredible... he remembers crashing in front of Gerloff whom he raced against ONCE and remembers which circuit... I think he could describe from memory all laps of all his races... In post race interviews, he would always say stuff like "in turn x of lap 14 this and that happened...." always being sooo precise in his recollection of the race. He must have been an engineer's dream... describing with much details everything the bike does in each turn of each lap. Like a lot of fan, he's the one who got me hooked to MotoGP... Roberts, Spencer, Lawson, Schwantz, Rainey and Doohan got me interested, but The Doctor got his claws in me. And to my knowledge, he's the first rider to do crazy theatricals after a win... That winning lap with the chicken mascot as a passenger (his sponsor in lower divisions) was unforgettable.
Throughout his career Rossi knew how to be dominant and play mind games etc with other riders (like stoner) now it's all nearly said and done it's interesting/nice to hear his praises for his opponents.
Not just a legendary racer.....an amazing personality and human being, who is short on ego and big on humour 😍🔥
Exactly. Small town vibes from that guy.
Yea,, see Vale face make me remember when rossi after crash Casey stoner he come to stoner pit to apologize 🙏🙏🙏
Very humble personality
I was intrigue though on how Anthony Gobert throw a party. 😅

@@parijatbora6214 yeah it’s crazy how fast time has just gone, nothing can beat them Sunday days aha
I'm glad they gave Suzi this interview, she brought out his human side.
She has no clue what he is even saying, just fake laughs
She s great
@@terryl9996 nonsense..
Agreed, normally some idiot so called personality with no idea about racing would be payed a fortune to do it.
100% Suzy and Vale always had that connection in interviews.

yep alex has always been an inspiration for Vale.I really liked him too he was very fast

@@hendradjoko7927 who cares just one win vs other loose
@@bagus2407 🤣i care lol... stupid statement

At least Rossi had the balls to say he wouldnt race Mcguinness at the Tt
TT Riders are just a whole other different beasts
Different gravy 😉
@@NealyLL I know all about it im in Ireland the home of pure road racing no comparison
Not the first time he assured people he wouldn't race IOM.
Standard requirement to race in the IOM TT...... Balls the size of your crash helmet
His personality makes him a legend that we will never forget.
He said the raiders now are modern athlete, they concern about the food and lifestyle. This is Vale, the old man with the old ways, and still capable of riding and competing with those modern riders. Amazing...
Exactly. And beating them as well.
@@johnjandoh6732 To be fair he didn't beat them for his last 12 years, he almost had it in 2015.

Two people who are at the top of their profession,just brilliant
Thanks for this great talk with Vale, I could listen to Suzi and Valentino for hours.
He's the reason why I love motorcycling and racing, everyday I ride and pretending to be like him, such an inspiring person..
GOAT LEGEND HERO MASTER STAR and a bloody nice bloke. 46!!
Fantastic rider!!!! I will miss these guy!!!!!

Top, top man. Absolute legend and no ego.
Lucky enough to see him for the first & obviously last time at Silverstone on Sunday. I feel genuinely privileged. Grazie Vale

The greatest of all time . What an amazing guy he is , unfortunately it will be his last season . Grazie Vale 💚🤍❤️

Fantastic Vale, same charisma
So humble! So self deprecating in a humorous way. I could listen to him tell stories all day.
charismatic and a champion. The god of racing!

Legend. The best in all time
The greatest of all time, that's all.
2:14 Gave props to Stoner wholeheartedly. Dovi said something similar about the talent.
Rossi and the late Marco Simoncelli, dug his hair style, are the only two, for me, racers with a big personality.
i love this guy, i remember when he win 250 cc world champ and go to 500 CC .... later motogp :) my number 1 :) :)
An awesome human being i feel his good energy and to be top of your game for over 20yrs. I duff my cap Sir VR46
Best interview ever.... period.
The Moto Gp tracks will never be.the same 🙏❤️🙌
Simplemente exquisito maestro y aprendiz pero sincero,grande
The dynamic duo. They'll never be a more knowledgeable racer or interviewer. The end of a golden era.
Grande Valentino! Kimi Raikkonen and Valentino Rossi, this year will have a sad moment at the end, but both gave me hundreds of hours with big moments.
Grazie Vale

Could watch hours of him talking about memories 😍
What a legend ❤️
Such a delightful personality, I could listen to interviews with him for hours.
