Valentino Rossi...
 

So I just happened to be running through Wikipedia to look for something about ole Vale. I stumbled upon the stats section....

So is it irony.... coincidence.... or planned.... the number of total wins Valentino had with Yamaha. Yup you guessed it....

Wouldn't that be somethin'

Co-inside-dense!

If Vale coulda made it 47 yesterday I doubt he would have let up.

Agreement, odd bit of irony. I'm dissapointed jb will be with him. It would have been interesting to see whose talent was the real catalyst

I honestly think Vale is the most talented rider... however... I think JB was what put him on top so often. taking what Vale describes and making the bike work for Vale. I just don't think he'd be as consistent with out him

That he has talent is unquestionable, the degree of which certaintly is. Id have loved to see him race the m1 for a season in the same configuration it was in when biaggi tried it

Burgess is a genius, Vale is a phenomenon. Who made who? the world will never know.
