Valentino Rossi: “We are happy and motivated by the work we are doing”

Assen is one of my tracks, one of the ones I like the most and where I have had some good races, in all classes. We will try to capitalize on the good feeling and experience on this track as on Thursday morning we will debut with some very promising but rather "young" updates to the bike.

Filippo (Preziosi), the guys at Ducati, the Test Team, did a great job, which allowed us to reach another stage in the development of our bike. After Estoril we didn't have the chance to try the 800 again so we will do it on the race weekends with the awareness that we will have to do, in a very short time, a double job thinking both about finding the basic settings for the technical innovations and about putting them general point for Saturday's race. We must be good on the track to make the best use of the work done at home. It will be tough, we know it may take a while to exploit the potential of the whole package but we are happy and motivated by the work we are doing.

    Hold on tight, a Honda dressed as a DUCATI is now coming!

  • HANDCUFF said:

    I'm not a fan of Valentino but calling him a clown seems completely out of place to me...respect must always be shown!!

  • cla said:

    Come on Valeee!!!!!as for the clown...(you're sad)...he who laughs last laughs best!!

  • Giampaolo said:

    why are you talking about honda dressed up as ducati???? they are simply giving valentino what he asked for...a less rigid and less extreme bike...+ communicative etc...fuck but you would go at 320 with a bike where you don't know if the front is attached or is in the air …..well….in my opinion you don't even know which way to ride motorbikes

  • n75 said:

    Anyway, Ducati did the fastest lap even without updates (in particular conditions, for heaven's sake...)

  • DanyKid69 said:

    Honda dressed as Ducati? Are we kidding?
    If the changes that are good for Rossi's riding style are close to those of Honda, it means nothing, a Ducati is still a Ducati, that is, the most difficult bike in the world championship, and if this is one of the ways to finally get out of this "crisis", then so be it!

  • RICCARDO said:

    vale has already amply demonstrated that he is a champion in his career... and seeing him smile even after a fifth or sixth place only shows what a great person he is... I would like to know what results people like these have ever achieved who write clowns or who insult him... they must be certainly poor useless and envious failures...
    GREAT WORTH!!!!!

    happy with what?
    the doctor no longer cures.

  • camullus said:

    All right, come on!!! if you can call Stoner the Werekangaroo, or Rolling Stoner, then it's fine to call Rossi the Clown, after all he likes to do clowning!!!! (for those who don't understand ** I mean when he does skits and skits **)

  • MC-Nicky69 said:

    Calling Rossi a clown seems exaggerated to me!
    When he wins everyone licks his ass and when he loses everyone teases him and says he's a loser!
    I'm not a fan of his, I don't like him but I respect him, it was like that even when he lost in 2006 to Nicky everyone went after him and after when he won again everyone licked his ass!
    Few people are objective. Rossi is still a champion even if he's struggling this year, inconsistent people suck!

  • Michele said:

    If Valentino, who won 9 world titles, is a clown, what are the others? Brocchi? review your xenophilic and undignified comment.

  • Michele said:

    Hardeep. From your Facebook profile, you should replace the "sex" item with MAN with CHILD.
    Then, calmly, bring me a coffee and get out of the way.

  • Emanuele said:

    If anyone defines any MotoGP rider as a "Clown", it is best to go and watch the ducks in the park, it is the only sport that perhaps he can understand.
    For those who don't know, Bayliss, as good as he is in SBK and MotoGP, has never accomplished anything, I don't think he is today!

  • spartacus said:

    Maybe it's because I'm Italian, maybe it's because I support Italy even at games without borders, for a few years now we Italians have been able to "brag" about having a "worthwhile" driver with a capital P who doesn't just drive like 90% of the drivers in circulation but who studies his motorbike and together with his staff develops the motorbike, one or two bad seasons on a brilliant career like his I can agree but from here it takes a lot to write that he is a clown, I conclude by saying that it is worth Italy that wins in the world and this is enough for me to say GO VALE GO DUCATI

  • leo said:

    Valentine the clown? You are the clowns, shame on you

  • Dario said:

    Since he no longer wins he has become even more likeable... of course with the millions he gets at the end of his career who would be sad?

  • Zardoz said:

    Well, it certainly takes courage to call Rossi a clown, when you support someone who gave up on a championship (and the team) because he had a pain in his tummy......

  • LucaR said:

    Rossi is a true leader and would deserve more respect, the real clowns are those who supported stoners with the excuse of Ducati...and who now no longer exist.
