How Much? only had £3.00 in loose on me, so I robbed 25p out of the charity box which i promised to myself to pay back with good yorkshire intention. A special edition celebrating VR. That bit went straight to recycling however Mand grabbed it as she wanted to look. I looked at the editorial and to my horror quotes like "grown men crying" err that would be MCN then and Dorna and all the paddock... Not a fan boy of VR46 mesen, in fact i think he is a bit girlie, narcissistic and a sore loser however he was a pretty boy (Mand sez) a decent racer and a first class manipulator. Fair play to the man. Good luck to him and I am sending a box load of wipes to MCN who have milked it over his career. It would now appear that there are a few gp riders as young as 15 years who could progress rapidly off a moto 3 and disgrace the likes of veteran moto gp riders. Every champion peaks and is then disposed of their glory at the next race. Rossi had a long innings at the top and an equally long innings at the crease engineering being a celebrity and ambassador for his brand and Moto GP. I doubt the current champions will never ever have that experience or platform. Rossi`s crashes, dnf`s were few and far between perhaps that explains the longevity. I doubt we will see another racer as such.
Respect , (not admiration) is due. I am sure he will be glad to hear that
