Last season Valentino Rossi leaves Honda and joins Yamaha,
because he "needs a new challenge".Although I suspect a couple of $million might have had some influence on the decision.
Honda sticks to the letter of the contract and will not let Rossi ride the Yamaha untill the New year.
So not much development time.
First qualifying session this season, Valentino calmly goes out and puts the new bike on provisional pole.......
IMHO the bloke is right up there with the greats. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif
