MotoGP Le Mans, Free Practice: Valentino Rossi “Lacks grip when exiting corners”
The Ducati rider from Pesaro is far from the top
Valentino Rossi finished the first day of MotoGP free practice in Le Mans, scene of the "Monster Energy Grand Prix de France", in ninth position. The nine-time world champion accuses himself of lacking grip and compared to Estoril the gap to those in front has increased. The word is up to him.
“This afternoon we tried two slightly different solutions on our bikes, trying to understand which one goes in the right direction to have more "grip" when exiting corners because, for now, especially when the performance of the tire drops, we lose a lot compared to the others. In fact, our "gap" is quite high and, even if the gaps are small in the small group we are in, between us and seventh there are more tenths than in Portugal. We have to try to do better tomorrow, we are trying a few things and we are working hard to do it.”

sorry if you can make fun of it because I would be bored and not seeing your comments I can't laugh!!!
kindly comment with meaningless sentences as usual xD thanks (with two z's because it's heartfelt)
Yes, really...we can't stand the monotony of topics anymore...even the withdrawal of stoners sees it as an opportunity to insult Valentino...even if they were true fans they would also comment on the articles regarding their idols...but no...the only interest that found in MotoGP is the insult to Rossi...and this doesn't seem to me to be passionate...
It really seems to me that he's giving it his all... he's certainly not in an easy situation... but if he criticizes it's immediately controversial so it seems to me that he's more moderate and has chosen in the media to present himself with humility. Personally, I would like to feel him more pissed off because working so hard to hope to get behind seventh is absurd considering that with a decent bike he has never done worse than fourth and has never taken more than a few seconds off the podium... I would like to feel him so much more pissed off ...but then everyone starts arguing and doing the math in his pocket...but when someone rides a MotoGP he doesn't think about money especially he who now has a lot of it so I really hope he gets really pissed off until he finds a motorbike, I'm not saying winning but at least which allows him to ride with the leaders... as it always was before going to Ducati...
Ps. Meandri is a great driver... he always has been... and he is proving to be so... he has already won everything but I hope that he too will find the opportunity to silence certain people again who see the failure of others as easing their own frustrations....
You know one thing Valentino hasn't won shit because he's always raced with very competitive bikes the real champion is STONER who literally devastated Valentino with the Ducati when he won the world championship and the elusive champion is just spouting bullshit every race isn't even an excuse more capable of doing a drift but come on we are objectives but what can I say I no longer have the balls to open the throttle...
But yes, well done...it's people like you who continue to give him importance, continue to criticize him because he's worth it...if he was any Elias or Deangelis you didn't even remember he existed...and instead here you are with insults and bad jokes to confirm that he is a legend. ., even tenth interests him more than all the others put together... but not to his fans... but to you frustrated people..
Uhahahaha Valentino didn't win shit..what a nice humorist...hahahaha...in fifty years when one reads the MotoGP register under the photo of Valentino Rossi it won't show all the podiums and world championships he won but your very intelligent reasoning and maybe your photo is also worth close to that of....sure
I remind you that he won 9 world championships, I repeat 9!!!!! maybe you'll remember them because you're always in your dad's balls!! it drove a lot of people crazy, see Biaggi escaped on a superbike, Gibernau hospitalized in neuro and he sent a certain stoner to graze cows for two months, something he's about to do next year with a good push from his wife!! sample?? well.. he may have been a good driver but he doesn't have the balls and is right to stop, history will remember someone who won 3 world championships if he wins this one but not a champion!!
But are you going to look for them? Maybe you don't know who to insult? I'll give you a chance so maybe you'll sleep better by giving me you and your snack buddies a string of thumbs down, you can release the anger of seeing your idol behind Barbera in shitty positions.
ps the 46 insults itself with these results, but above all as far as I'm concerned it insults the DUCATI, a real racing bike*
* words from 46.
Come on yellow followers of the cheating god down with your frustrations (read thumbs down) !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ppss I always do a good work for the needy and heartbroken
comment in response to gidan and for all those who DON'T dare :-) as they are well hidden.
I think that 46 is hiding……………and for the moment also the yellowish ones, if he manages (46) to get in front of Mr. barbera in the race will sprout like mushrooms like amanita phalloides, film already seen ;-)
it's valid but did you then manage to find the position in the saddle or... ah I understand you're still working on it. How sad it is for a nine-time world champion to be reduced to making excuse after excuse.
you are a bluff other than champion, he won yes but for the bike clearly superior to all the others.
thanks stoner you exposed the great bluff tax evader etc etc etc.
ps I said it was a bluff even when he won, crappy starts and superman recoveries.
stonner didn't win with the ducati but with the bridgestons remember that !!!!!! and then acute gastroenteritis !!!!!! but memory plays tricks on some people, right FRANCESCO????
NOW IT SEEMS KE STONNER HAS ALWAYS BEEN 1 KE HE WON, OR EVEN HE WON BROADLY BUT WHAT? YES OK, SHE IS IN FULL SHAPE BUT FEAR RULES HER!!! IF NOT HOW DO YOU EXPLAIN THIS EARLY RETIREMENT???? HE IS AFRAID OF GOING BACK TO THE GASTROINTEROLOGIST AS BEFORE!!!!! AND HE SAYS BETTER TO LEAVE IMMEDIATELY!!!!
I am not hidden!!!! GO IT'S VALID TODAY, YESTERDAY AND TOMORROW!!!!! I'm a fan but also a sportsman unlike many anti-Valentinians who find the comma in every post to rubbish 1!!! but I say for example if we talk about CRT or Casey or BRDL or whoever I know there is always someone who talks about Vale!!! I do not understand !!!!
aq I'm fine, the more you talk about it, the more it means that he is and was great and that he did and will still piss off a lot of people, trust me!!!
last comment from angelo then NO ONE anymore I'm worried about it.
Hi Francesco....but what if you just came out of...hibernation after the last 15 years....?!
How sad to hear comments from football stadium fans. All riders deserve respect, and especially Valentino. You don't win 8 world titles just because you have a good bike. It takes the head, ka concentration. Stoner is a champion, there's no arguing. Valentino is a Super Champion. Stoner doesn't last a whole season and is psychologically fragile. Instead I find that Lorenzo has the characteristics to handle the GP bike for a long time. Question of mental training.
I correct 9 world titles
ahhhhh thanks xD it was a really shitty day yesterday xD thanks to you I doubled over laughing xD anyway Stoner is a fantastic rider on a fantastic bike at the moment. Not a phenomenon!!! Lorenzo is a phenomenon because he rides a Yamaha that isn't at the top, see spies.
Then Mr. Valentino Rossi moved from Honda, which had 5 bikes in the top 5 positions every race, to Yamaha which was in a really bad moment in its history.
However, there is no need for him to defend himself to the hilt. Rossi can bite your ass just for the simple reason that he has won a lot.
But Catalunya, laguna seca, Philip Island, MUGELLO 2005, cheer whoever you want but a bit of rationality is needed in life you only seem ULTRA cheap.
ps I am NOT a ROSSI fan but like many I recognize his value.
For me he won the real titles with the Yamaha when he was a wreck. Yes, he proved to be a good driver. He won the others (Aprilia and Honda) "easy". Having so many titles means being criticized a lot, especially now that he is behind. Too far behind for the titles won....
But do you realize Valentino's mediocrity, Max didn't even finish tenth or twelfth with customer bikes, he has to go, he offended a world with his bluff
