Valentino Rossi freewheeling after the Le Mans race….

It's an Valentino Rossi freewheeling what is allowed to the cameras
of Italia 1, here are his words after the Le Mans race:

"Le Mans was a very close race, the three of us in front (Rossi
– Gibernau – Barros) we put on a show, I think people had fun.

I tried until the end but Gibernau drove very fast and didn't succeed
I made it clean.
At first I thought about finishing third because we weren't in a good place but with the
After a few laps I realized that I could fight until the end.

Gibernau is a good rider, he has great control of the bike in conditions
extreme, Barros also rode hard and both are very correct.

Of course, comparing Sete with Kato I would have to say that Daijiro won much more
in the other classes and also with the 500 2-stroke but today with these bikes it is
control in extreme conditions is very important.
I think Kato was too small for MotoGP, as was Capirossi,
I think Loris suffers a little from his height, not 5 centimeters more
would be bad, try asking them.

I would definitely have won the Le Mans race in dry conditions, according to the new regulations
it is clearer for the spectators and we drivers also know immediately
who won but this time I lost out.
Let's hope that next time it goes better for me, let's say the new rules
are part of the policy we are pursuing with Dorna, we give
something to them and in exchange we hope not to race at Suzuka anymore and to
see all the dangerous points eliminated (see Jerez wall).

Sunday we race at Mugello, the track doesn't suit my style very much
driving but last year I won, so I'm hoping for a very close race
with only one winner… Rossi!!

Of course the pressure will be very high but this is the price to pay
due to popularity, I really think it will be a good race."
