Rossi is born in Urbino, Italy, of Graziano and Stefina Rossi, and is brought up in the nearly city of Tavullia. His father, a former motorcycle racer, teaches him to ride a motorbike. Concerned for his safety, his mother forces his father to buy Rossi a kart, which his father upgrades from 60cc motor to 100cc.
Valentino Rossi
First 500c win
Despite a poor start, Rossi charges through the pack on a wet track to get his first win in the 500cc class, at the British GP at Donington Park, ahead of Kenny Roberts Jr. and Jeremy McWilliams.
British GP interview
Rossi talks about the British GP at Silverstone.
Silverstone is a great track. Very difficult, very long, but full of history. Last year was not so bad. For sure there will be harder, maybe difficult conditions, maybe cold, maybe rain, so we have to be ready for all aspects.
'Marquez would prefer Lorenzo to win'
Rossi speaks to the Italian media about his comments on Marc Marquez helping out Jorge Lorenzo.
In the race I noticed it, but I did not understand; Marquez was a step above everyone, but instead of trying to try to battle Lorenzo, he stayed with me to fight with Iannone and others. He knew that I was losing out to the Ducati on the straight. And so every time I tried to pass him, he re-overtook me (super-aggressive, but thats the way it is). But then he slowed to create a gap to Jorge. His bad luck was that on Sunday Jorge was not so strong, because otherwise it would have been over already. Instead, he always kept Jorge in check, knowing that he could catch him within 3 laps, and then tried to slow me and Iannone, perhaps trying to put other riders between me and Lorenzo. And in the end, that's what he did. It is clearly quite worrying, but it doesn't worry me too much. [He did this ] because he would prefer Lorenzo to win. He is angry at me for a personal matter. Although he never said it, he thinks that in Argentina I made him crash; and then at Assen he is still thinking about the last chicane, in his head he feels he should have won that race. Since then he has been angry and thinking like a child: I do not win, but you do not win either. At this point, the lesser evil is for him is for Lorenzo to win.
Marquez, Rossi clash
After being overtaken by Marquez in the 13th lap of the Sepang GP, Rossi runs Marquez wide and when Marquez's Honda gets too close, Rossi pushes his leg against the bike. Marquez falls off his bike and is forced to retire. Rossi continues and finishes in third place. The race is won by Jorge Lorenzo. Marquez:
We were having a good race up until the incident – we started a fight between us and I always passed without making contact with him. At Turn 14 he passed me on the inside and I saw him looking at me. I didn't know what to do. Then he kicked out at me, knocking my brake lever, and I crashed. Both what Valentino said to race direction and what he did on the track has made me disappointed. I've never seen anything like it: a rider kicking another rider.

Three point penalty
Following a post-race investigation, Rossi is given three penalty points and will start the final race of the season from the back of the grid after kicking Marquez off his bike during the Malaysian Grand Prix. MotoGP race director Webb:
It's irresponsible riding causing a crash and for that we have imposed three penalties points on Rossi.
Rossi now leads Lorenzo by just seven points in the championship. Rossi:
Unfortunately, I lose a lot of time with Marc. And in turn 14, I tried to go a bit wide to take a better line and make him slow. He came to me and I think he crashed in that moment. His handlebar touched my foot and my foot slipped off, a bike can't crash only with a touch. He has won his fight, he made me lose the championship.
Yamaha have said they will appeal against the sanction.
Explains appeal
Yamaha Motor Racing Managing Director Jarvis explains Rossi's appeal.
Our job as a team is to protect the interests of our riders, so while we cannot deny that Valentino's move is not the sort of move that we want to see in MotoGP, at the same time we feel the penalty is quite harsh, especially when Valentino is not normally a dirty rider. He's not a rider that creates issues or problems for other people. As a team, we appealed to the FIM and the first decision of the race control. They heard him, also consulted race direction, consulted Marc Marquez and Honda, and finally after a period of 45 minutes we have the results of the appeal, which was rejected. The original penalty of three points against Valentino stands, and in the process of appealing, if the FIM steward rejects your appeal and agrees with the original decision, it is no longer appealable – it becomes final. It's case closed. That means now that Valentino Rossi will go to Valencia with this penalty.
If anything, knowing him [Rossi], this will probably make him more motivated to come back and to try to do another memorable season like this. And the championship isn't over – you have to keep that in mind. He has a seven-point lead, and while he's at a massive disadvantage starting from the back, in racing anything can happen. You never know if he can salvage something. Anything can happen.
Comments on penalty
Rossi comments on his penalty to the Italian media.
The sanction is almost definitive: to start last in Valencia equals not having any chance of making it. This way the championship is distorted. I gave everything to win this title. Losing it on track is one thing, this way hurts a lot more. Should it help, Marquez would let Lorenzo through on the last lap [at Valencia].
He also says he may not race at Valencia, but that comment is played down by Yamaha.
Over 380,000 fans sign petition
A petition (link) to try and force MotoGP officials to drop Rossi's penalty gets over 380,000 signatures. The petition, started by Nicholas Davis, of Virginia Water in the UK, says:
The integrity of MotoGP is falling into disgrace. You have just condoned dirty racing tactics by punishing Valentino Rossi for pursuing the championship whilst being harassed and sabotaged by Marc Marquez. Justifying your decision by stating that there is no rule to deal with the actions of Marc Marquez is as absurd as saying there is no rule to prevent riders shooting at other riders with guns.
Will race in Valencia
Rossi tweets that he will race in Valencia.
Reading all your messages has allowed me to overcome my bitterness and anger and today, we'll be starting work on Valencia! Thanks for all your support.
Grazie a tutti per il fantastico supporto,leggervi mi ha aiutato a superare amarezza e incazzatura. Da oggi si lavora per Valencia.

Robot biker challenges Rossi
Yamaha releases MOTOBOT, an autonomous motorcycle-riding humanoid robot. The robot has a rigid torso and legs, and arms jointed at the shoulders and wrists but not elbows. The robot rides a 1,000cc R1M superbike, modified with outrigger-mounted wheels. Yamaha wants develop the robot to ride an unmodified motorcycle on a racetrack at more than 200 km/h. In the video, MOTOBOT challenges Rossi.
The way you ride is both beautiful and exciting. I am improving my skills every day but I am not sure I could even beat the five-year-old you. Perhaps if I learn everything about you, I will be able to catch up. I am not human, but there has to be something only I am capable of. I am MOTOBOT. I was created to surpass you.
Appeals to court after penalty
Rossi appeals to the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) after he was demoted to the back of the grid in the Valencia GP on Nov 8. He asks for an annulment or reduction of the penalty from three points to one. Rossi also files an application to stay the execution of the decision in order not to lose his place on the starting grid at the Valencia. The court will decide by Nov 6.
Honda: Data shows Rossi Kicked Marquez
Nakamoto says that, while video evidence is inconclusive, data from Marquez bike shows that Rossi kicked Marquez.
First of all, we would like to state that we believe it is very important to speak about the facts, not about assumptions. A fact is a fact and there is only one interpretation…It is clear that Valentino intentionally pushed Marc towards the outside of the track, which is out of the rules, therefore Marc had no other option other than to run wide. The data from Marc's bike shows that even though he was picking up the bike trying to avoid contact with Valentino, his front brake lever suddenly received an impact that locked the front tyre, which is the reason for his crash. We believe that this pressure was a result of Rossi's kick. The data acquisition from Marc's bike is available if anybody from Dorna, the FIM or media want to check.
I know Marc well. He is a good guy, with strong and honest values. Marc was just trying to defend his position, as any rider would do, and we believe him 100%.
We respect the decision of Race Direction and don't want to pass judgement if the penalty they administered was right or wrong. However, we do believe there was enough evidence to allow them to take a decision during the race, it was not necessary to wait until the end.
Marquez: 'I have never felt like this'
Marquez says he has never experienced anything like his recent troubles with Rossi.
During my career I have had many battles, but I never have I felt this. On that corner Valentino passed me, but then I saw he was completely straight and looking at me and stopping a lot. I was just waiting because there was nothing to do at that point and then I saw with his leg he pushed my arm and my front brake, and then I locked the front wheel and crashed.
In response to the accusation of deliberately interfering in the title battle in recent races:
You know I don't want to be involved more in the championship. Valentino surprised everybody [with his comments], but I didn't consider that because I just did my weekend [at Phillip Island]. Of course we can fight, we can overtake, we can have small contact, but in [Malaysia] until that moment we never had contact. I don't know how inside the helmet you can think to push out another rider with your leg. I've never seen that. OK, I am very young, but I am disappointed.
Yamaha: Rossi did not kick Marquez
Yamaha issues a statement refuting claims made by Honda that Rossi kicked Marquez.
Yamaha would like to express its disagreement with the words that have been used to report on the incident between riders Valentino Rossi and Marc Marquez. Both press releases included words that accuse Valentino Rossi of kicking Marc Marquez's bike that is something not proven by the investigation of the Race Direction.We therefore reject the wording used in the said published statements that do not correspond with the findings of the Race Direction. Yamaha has no wish to enter into further discussion regarding this unfortunate affair and our desire is to conclude the 2015 MotoGP season in the best possible way. We go to Valencia with the clear intention of trying our best to win what we hope will be a memorable final race with all riders and teams competing in an exemplary sportsmanlike manner befitting the top category of motorcycle racing.
Must start from back of grid
Rossi will start the final MotoGP race of the season in Valencia from the back of the grid after his penalty is confirmed by the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS). FIM confirms the ruling, but says that the denied request was for the stay of execution, and that there is the possibility that the penalty could be revoked later, but only after it has been served. CAS:
[The arbitration board] found that the conditions to grant the stay were not met, which means that the sanction imposed by FIM, the sport's ruling body, will have to be served at the next grand prix in Valencia.
When you start last, it's very difficult to prepare strategies. You have to work well in practice and be competitive and have good pace. For sure when you start last, the risks are a lot more. [The title] depends on me and if I'm strong and fast enough to be able to recover. The answer of the CAS has not arrived yet, today it was just that I have to start last in this race because they need time to decide. We have to wait and see, but the important thing is I have to start last.
Relaxed, happy with practice
After coming fifth in FP1 and fourth in FP2, Rossi says he is relaxed about Valencia practice.
I'm not working any differently; we did something very similar to what we always do. I'm very relaxed and I'm quite happy with today's two practice sessions because my pace in the morning wasn't bad and I was pretty competitive with the used tyres. I'm also pleased that in the afternoon we tried something different that allowed me to up the pace and improve my lap times. I used the hard tyres, which wasn't so bad, and after I tried the soft to make a comparison and make the right choice for Sunday. If we do a good job with the set-up that could make things less difficult, but Valencia is a tough track for making up ground because it's pretty narrow. On top of that, we're not especially quick on the straights, our top speed isn't that high, so we have to work hard in other areas, like the braking, to get the set-up right…The start is vital in MotoGP. It accounts for, say, 80% of the race, but Sunday will be a bit different for me, because I'll have traffic ahead of me and I'll have to have the energy and momentum to keep up the pace from beginning to end.
Valencia GP: 4th place
Despite starting from the back of the grid, Rossi takes 4th place in Valencia. Jorge Lorenzo finishes first, in front of Marc Marquez and Dani Pedrosa, denying Rossi the 2015 MotoGP World Championship.
Rossi claims Spanish 'stitch up'
Rossi says he was denied his win by a Spanish 'stitch-up''. Rossi say Lorenzo is a deserving champion but he could not understand why Honda should want to see a Yamaha rider win. He accuses Márquez of being a 'biscottone' – an expression used in football when two teams play out a mutually beneficial draw to the detriment of another – but said he expected no less.
I did what I could but it was a strange situation having Márquez as the bodyguard of Lorenzo. It is embarrassing for the sport. Hopefully the sport's authorities will be able to sort it out. It is an ugly end to what has been an attractive championship. It has not been a true championship and this should not happen in sport.
Márquez responds that it is 'a lack of respect' to suggest he had not tried to win:
I always give everything and I know there will be people that will say that I have been second because I wanted Lorenzo to win.
Lorenzo, however, says that the Spaniards may have helped each other:
The fact that they knew what I was going for and that they are Spanish has helped me and in another race they may have tried everything to overtake. Dani did well because he could have tried a crazy overtake. We are Spanish and the title remains in Spain. If it had been in Italy and with two Italians behind Rossi then it would have been the same.
Valencia Test Day 1
Rossi tests out the 2016 Yamaha M1 with new electronics and Michelin tires at Valencia. His best time of 1'32.401 puts him in twelfth place.
It's a big change and it will be interesting, especially the tyre will make a big difference for next year. A lot changed, especially the setting, the weight distribution of the bike and everything. It looks like our competitors are a little ahead, because they've made more kilometres with the Michelin, but it's just the first day. I also tried the new electronics and also that, as I expected, was quite a big step because it's like going a little bit into the past. However, that too could be interesting and it's only the first day, we have a lot to work on. The rear tyre is very similar and Michelin is good, it has very good grip. The front is the big difference.
Valencia Test Day 2
Rossi ends the two-day Valencia test in seventh overall after adjusting the settings of his bikes to match the Michelin tyres. He clocks a personal best lap of 1'31.498 on lap 57.
The second day, for us, was quite positive. It was a long day, I did a lot of laps and I tried to improve my feeling with the new tyres. I'm quite happy because in the afternoon my lap times were not so bad. I did long runs to understand the tyres and I was always quite fast. We improved the bike a lot compared to yesterday and the tyres, especially the front gave a better feedback and this is the most important. We also worked a little bit on the electronics systems for next year, which has already improved a lot compared to yesterday, but we still have work to do.
Rossi drops Marquez merchandize
According to Italian website, Corriere della Sera, Rossi has decided to end his business ties with Marquez. Beginning next year, the VR46 Store, will no longer manage Marquez's MM93 merchandise. The Tavullian company owned by Rossi manages the merchandise of 20 riders and hails an annual turnover of 12.5 million euros. Next year, another company will be dealing with the sale of t-shirts, caps and other novelty MM93 products.
Losing championship 'hurt'
Speaking to italian reporters, Rossi says that it will take months to get over his World Championship loss.
Honestly on Sunday after the race it hurt but it's a different situation as there is lots of adrenaline. On Monday instead it was tough and yesterday [Tuesday], too, it was quite a struggle. Today [Wednesday] it has been a bit better, but it's something, a situation, that will take months to – not forget it, because you'll never forget it – but to come to terms with.
He also questions Honda cancelling its press conference:
I'm curious to see Honda's telemetry. Oh, they haven't shown it? Strange! I'd like to figure out how they think they can demonstrate through telemetry that I had kicked him. This is something you should ask them. Poor guys, they wanted to show it but for the good of motorcycle racing they won't…
#TheGrandFinale video release
Motogp.com releases a video of Rossi's lap of honor, after the Valencia GP.
Suppo: Marquez crazy not to beat Jorge
Repsol Honda team principal, Livio Suppo, comments on how Marquez should deal with the situation.
Go on holiday and relax. I think there's nothing really we can add, especially Marc. If people believe him we are happy, if they don't I think 'time is a gentleman' [an Italian phrase that can mean 'time is a healer' or 'the truth will come out']. I'm just so sad for what happened on Sunday [at Valencia] because I know that Marc really wanted to win this race. And when I saw him in parc ferme, I've never seen him so disappointed. Because he is a clever guy – you must be stupid to do deliberately what happened on Sunday…If you think seriously, with no pressure, you understand that it is crazy for Marc not trying to beat Jorge. Even if Marc finished in front of Jorge with Dani in third, Jorge was still world champion with the same points [as Rossi]. That would probably be even better, because this championship was deserved by both of them [Rossi and Lorenzo] and it would then have been decided only by different race wins.
He also says he has a lot of respect for Rossi.
I met Valentino coming back from Indy I think, in the lounge at the airport, and I said honestly I have more respect now than I have 10 years ago. Because what he's done this season – it doesn't matter if he won the championship or not – has been unbelievable; 36 years old, coming from the 500 and still able to fight with the young guns that are riding in a totally different way. And this year to beat almost all of them and lose the championship by only five points has been really unbelievable. Of course we cannot be happy with the situation that has been created by the words of Valentino, starting from the Sepang press conference. I really hope Valentino will understand that Honda and Marc are not against him. We just try to do our championship and if he thinks differently I'm very sorry, but it's not like that.
Jarvis: Rossi 'destroyed', recovering motivation
Yamaha's Jarvis says that Rossi was "destroyed" by his situation.
When you put in all this energy and strive for the title every day until the last lap, and then you see the target vanish, you find yourself destroyed. Understandably, Valentino was completely empty. The best thing for him would have been to have months to recover and find a new motivation. But on the second day of testing, he had a different expression; he had rediscovered his enthusiasm. It was what we hoped to see…In [the last] three weeks [of the season], all the MotoGP riders, teams, organisers, came under stress: small cracks have widened dramatically. It's important that Dorna and the FIM can review and analyse what happened, and then make the necessary changes. If the season starts without finding solutions, without discussing it appropriately, then everything will be very difficult.
Lorenzo expects Rossi relationship to recover
Lorenzo says he expects his relationship with Rossi to recover.
Valentino has been always very clever speaking to the media and sometimes you don't have completely the reason, but he expressed his opinions. You have to understand it as best as possible. It's normal that the relationship gets a little bit tenser and especially after Sepang, where he expressed his opinion and I expressed my opinion, the situation did get a little bit more tense. I think the past will forget everything and everything in the future will come again into normality.
He also says he is proud of his win.
It makes me very proud to spend six or seven years finishing in first or second, but it also makes me very proud to be champion, fighting and competing against three generation of champions. Like Marc who is younger, Casey who is the same age as me, and Valentino who is older.
In F1, Rossi 'would have been disqualified for sure'
Ecclestone says, if it was F1, that Rossi would have been disqualified.
Rossi would have been disqualified for sure. Or he would have been shown the black flag. [The situation between Rossi and Marquez] is a warning for F1. I'll give you an example: let's suppose Ferrari is en route for the title and Mercedes block them with one of their customer teams, what would happen then?
On whether Rossi could have switched to F1 (he tested for Ferrari) from MotoGP.
In bikes he was at the top as far as importance and earnings are concerned, while in F1 he would have had to start from scratch. He did the right thing in not switching.
Valentino Rossi: The Game announced
MotoGP and Italian game developer Milestone, announce the official 2016 MotoGP video game, Valentino Rossi: The Game. The game will allow players to retrace Rossi's career from its beginnings to the present day, take control of a Rally car and let loose on various tracks such as the Monza Rally, participate in thrilling Flat Track races and discover the Valentino Rossi Ranch. The game is scheduled for release in June 2016 on PC, PS4 and Xbox One. Rossi:
I'm happy to announce that I'll participate in the making of Valentino Rossi The Game, along with the guys at Milestone. We chose to include both the most important elements of my MotoGP career, and all the extra circuit stuff that are so important to me, like Ranch, Rally and more. It will be fun to approach the game not only as a gamer, but also as a 'test driver'. I'll work with the development team to make sure all fans will get the best experience they ever had.
Milestone CEO:
Milestone has been developing MotoGP for a few years, but the experience we are going to offer all motorcycle racing and Valentino fans this year is quite simply unique. Players can grapple with the entire 2016 official championship, but most of all they can experience the passion, professionalism and experience of Valentino Rossi, both in and out of the championship, with exclusive rally and flat track content, as well as much more that only the number 46 can offer.
Leads Monza Rally
Rossi ends the second last day of the Monster Energy Monza Rally with a 33.6s lead over the competition at the Italian rally event, which cuts across the Monza national park and the Grand Prix circuit. There are still two final stages remaining on the last day. If Rossi wins, it will be his fourth time to win the event.
Monza is always a great moment and a great way to finish the season because I get great enjoyment from it this year and this year I am in front so I am happy. For a long, long time I've returned to this rally because I like this event. You have the thrill of the race but less pressure than in MotoGP so I can enjoy it. I can drive this car which is fantastic. Also in our team we have Brivio and Uccio, so it always good fun.
Wins Monza Rally
Rossi wins his fourth Monza Rally, beating Roberto Brivio by 4.8 seconds, and Thierry Neuville by 13.4 seconds in the fourth stage. Neuville comes second overall in the rally.
The season finished in Valencia, the real one, but my season finishes after the Rally of Monza. Also in November I try to fix all my things and this one is like at the end of my season. From Monday morning I will be on my real holidays. Monza is always a great moment and a great way to finish the season.
Marquez hopes Rossi situation will imporve
In an interview with CNN, Marquez, who is hosting a training camp for 20 young riders, says he understands Rossi's situation:
The relationship with Valentino was really good until Thursday (before) Malaysia. I think there he created so much more of what was not natural, not good for motorcycling…The problem is that too many people start to speak about the situation. (When we arrived) in Valencia, I say 'Please we need to win the race because if not … he will complain.' Lorenzo did the fastest lap, the record of the circuit, the record of the total laps … I couldn't pass him, I couldn't win; but you know for me the target was to win the race and that was the best way to finish the season.
I already said in Valencia to Valentino, 'My hand is here,' and I want the best for motorcycling, and I think the best thing is to be in a good relationship with him. [But] at that moment (in Valencia) he had just lost the championship, and he was really worn. I understand the situation, so I don't want to think a lot about what he said, but I hope that 2016 will be a new season, a new relationship and (we) try to forget all these things.
'2015 wasn't my last chance'
In an interview with Autosport, Rossi is asked about his age:
If you check the history of human beings, between 36 and 37 is not a big difference. Next year I can go more or else at the same pace. But it depends a lot on the motivation, the match of the Yamaha with the Michelins, our work and everything else. Next year will be another story, and I will try as always.
Rossi, Lorenzo unveil 2016 Yamaha MotoGP colors
Yamaha Racing release images of Rossi and Lorenzo in new team livery. The design is almost identical to last season (barring a few stickers), with 2016 the third year of title sponsorship by Movistar.
Rossi/Marquez clash data will not be released
FIM and Honda Racing say that data from the Rossi/Marquez clash at Sepang will not be released. The data relates to claims by Honda that Rossi kicked Marquez, causing the Spaniard to fall. FIM President Ippolito:
In MotoGP, the dispute was brought before the CAS and the case is now closed. It is true that at the end of the season the polemics around the Rossi-Marquez case swelled to unprecedented levels. For that reason, we asked all the people involved, including the teams, to refrain from engaging in controversy about what happened in Sepang.During the last competition in Valencia, team Honda informed us that they had all the telemetry relating to the incident. Now the data are in our hands, and Honda and the FIM have decided together not to release them so as not to fuel further polemics.
Sepang test video
Yamaha releases a video of Rossi during Sepang testing.
Sepang testing: May ditch 2016 Yamaha M1
Rossi thinks the 2016 MotoGP YZR-M1 Yamaha's setup is now too radical for the Michelin tyres which have improved greatly since the last test at Valencia, preferring a version closer to his 2015 setup. Rossi also has a standard 2015 bike to ride.
One bike is the 2015 and I make some lap for the feeling. And after we have two bike, one more similar to the 2015 and one more modified. Today I concentrate on the bike more similar to the 2015 because of time because we have to work on electronic especially. I try the other one one time and the feeling was not so bad but at this moment I don't know if it is better. The Michelin has improved already and that bike was for the old Michelin so I don't know now if we need that bike or not.
Marquez brothers cancel VR46 merchandise deal
The company in charge of image rights for Marc and Alex Marquez confirms their merchandise will no longer be produced and distributed by Rossi's VR46 Racing Apparel company. The Marquez brothers are tipped to move their merchandising to Gruppo Pritelli.
AC Management, company in charge of managing the image rights of the riders Marc Márquez and Alex Márquez, informs that they have agreed with the Company VR46 Racing Apparel, S.r.l. to terminate the license agreements previously in force and under which the latter was in charge of the exploitation of both riders' merchandising. Both parties appreciate services rendered while the agreement was in force and wish each other success in future endeavors.
Will stay in MotoGP for two more years or none
Rossi says he will continue in MotoGP until the end of 2018 if he elects to race beyond the end of this season.
At the end of 2016 my contract will expire. So I will have to decide whether to continue for another two seasons or not. If I continue, it will be for two seasons as all the contracts are for two years. It will be like 2014 when I said I will look at it after the first few races. You have to look at the first five or six races then start thinking.
37th birthday tribute

Phillip Island Day 2: 'Good from beginning to end'
Rossi improves his performance on the second day of testing, finishing fourth.
Yesterday I did just 7-8 laps, but the first impression was bad and I was a bit worried. But today, with good conditions, already from this morning I was able to go fast and have a good feeling. It is different to ride [with Michelins], but at the same time I like it. It is very funny. This is important. It was a good day from beginning to end. I always stayed [near the top]. At the end I am fourth, but the distance from first position is very close and also I didn't put new tyres at the end. We will see tomorrow if we can improve. Also the good thing is that we always made progress, step-by-step. We improved quite a lot.
Rossi also says that he is getting used to the balance of his Michelin tires.
For me the front is still a little bit worse compared to Bridgestone but the rear is better. So on balance it is very similar.
Picks 2015-style bike after second test
After setting the fifth-fastest time on the final test day at Phillip Island, Rossi says he will stick with a Yamaha YZR-M1 based on the 2015 bike, rather than developing the '16 version.
In the end we only had one good day and that was yesterday, but it's better than nothing. Today we continued our job for a bit, especially we compared the two different bikes and I think we will use the bike that's more similar to last year's model. It was a positive test, especially yesterday, but also today. I feel good with the bike and with the tyres and my pace was not so bad, so I'm quite satisfied.
Yamaha Aerox ad
Rossi appears in a Yamaha Aerox 125 LC commercial for the Indonesian and other South-Eastern Asian markets.
It's all about the man behind the bike.
Yamaha partners with VR46 Riders Academy
Yamaha agrees to a three-year partnership agreement with the VR46 Riders Academy to become and official partner and bike supplier. Yamaha will supply 26 R-Series and YZ series motorcycles for Academy riders to train and develop their racing skills at the VR46 MotoRanch and also at the Misano road race circuit. Rossi:
The partnership between Yamaha and VR46 makes me very happy and incredibly proud. Through the Academy we have been doing very interesting things for young and talented riders and I believe we couldn't have found a better partner than Yamaha to provide our guys everything they need to grow up quickly and improve their performances on track.
The Academy started as a natural development of Valentino's incredible passion for motorcycling and racing when he committed himself to supporting the next generation of riders to develop their talent and skills to become future World Championship racers… This new program will give a unique opportunity for selected talented riders to train and learn from "the Master" and from the full-time VR46 Riders Academy riders during the 2 one-week dedicated training sessions.
Qatar test Day 1: Third place
Rossi's Qatar MotoGP test gets off to a bad start when he falls on his out lap. He recovers and finishes in third place, 0.442s behind Jorge Lorenzo and 0.014s from Suzuki's Maverick Vinales.
I started in a bad way, because after ten corners I crashed. I wasn't very fast, but maybe because I had too much angle and the rear slid. But fortunately it was just a small slide at 70 km/h. It wasn't a big problem but to start like this wasn't fantastic… After, we jumped on the other bike and I'm quite satisfied about today because, also here in Qatar, it looks like our bike is competitive. We can be strong and fast and this is the most important thing, because it's already the third track where the Yamaha is competitive. We also started with a good base set-up, in fact I didn't work a lot on it. I felt good from the first moment, rode quite fast and I was able to consistently improve my lap times and in the end I'm in the third position, so it was a good day.
Qatar test Day 2: Fifth place
Rossi comes fifth in testing at Losail, Qatar, with a time of 1m 55.947s. Suzuki's Maverick Vinales leads with 1m 55.436s.
The second day was OK, I worked a lot and did a lot of laps because we have quite a lot of work to do. In the end my performance was not fantastic in the lap and the position because I'm a little bit worse compared to yesterday, but in reality we didn't do a real time attack because we tried to save some tyres because it's important for tomorrow. We don't have a lot of tyres, so we're trying to manage. I think Friday will be very important for trying to understand our potential in a better way and especially for trying to improve the lap time and also for making a long run and try to understand our pace.
Qatar test Day 3: Third place
After crashing on his out lap, Rossi finishes third in the final day of Qatar testing, improving on his fastest time on the first day by nearly half a second to post a best time of 1'55.429s, o.5s behind the leader, teammate Jorge Lorenzo. Rossi's combined times for the three days leaves him fifth overall.
In the end I'm quite happy. Unfortunately I had another crash in the same corner, but it was a small one and I was able with the team to try everything. In the last hour and a half we improved the setting and I had quite a strong pace and did a good time attack. The lap time is not so bad and more importantly I did a race simulation and I was strong. I think that it will be quite tough, because it seems that from the first test the other bikes improved a lot, but now we are there at their level. I think a lot of riders can be fast for the first Grand Prix, but we are competitive…I think the last five laps of the race will be difficult for everybody, but the bike is good to ride, so we're able to keep a good pace
VR46 Academy profile
Cycleworld.com profiles Rossi's VR46 Academy, where 11 young riders are tought the "Valentino Method," which combines scientific precision, passion and fun. The school, which is supported by Yamama, has a 1.8 mile dirt-track, which was built based on Rossi's father's intuition that training on dirt improves bike control skills. dirt track to improve his skills controlling the bike. The track has left and right turns, and changes of elevation, and there are already plans to make it bigger, build a jump, and possibly open it to the public. Students learn, race, and discuss their day's results over a "grigliata," a typical barbecue. Rossi:
The target is to raise young Italian talent and give them an opportunity to shine.
Hamilton: Rossi is 'incredible'
Hamilton declares himself a fan of Rossi:
I really need to try a MotoGP bike because MotoGP is so cool and more exciting to watch I would say and is closer racing. Valentino is incredible and is my favourite as he is for a lot of people. There are also a lot of other great riders and I definitely want to make it to more races this year as I've only been to one a season. This year I will try and make it to more and I'm dying to get on the back of one [bike] at least. I just won't tell my team!
Rossi: I was 'screwed' by Marquez
In an interview with Motosprint, Rossi says he had no choice but to speak out against Marquez after Sepang 2015.
I have thought long and hard on what had happened. I also thought that perhaps it would have been better not to do it, but I had to, because I had realised that I was screwed. It would have been already difficult to beat Lorenzo in a normal situation, but when Marquez went against me, I realised I got screwed. With that press conference, more than trying to intimidate Marquez, I tried to call for the attention of race direction, in order to sort out this thing. We had tried to talk to race direction, but they didn't listen to us, so I tried this other way. I think they underestimated the problem, because what happened is something no one had expected: I didn't, and neither did they, so when we told them, they looked at us wondering 'what's behind this?' It could have been avoided by talking together in Malaysia.
While he expects to maintain a working relationship with Lorenzo, Rossi still wonders about Marquez's tactics.
It was completely clear what his intentions were, with the Valencia race [when Marquez finished second to Lorenzo] being the cherry on top. Anyway… it is not very important, in the sense that our relationship, after what had happened, can never be restored. We'll have to be only rivals, but I would like us to be able to focus on that, more than on nonsense such as 'let's shake hands, let's not. I prefer doing real things, that's the way.

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 2/5/2013 (1574 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
The 12-year-old girl who was saved by volunteer firefighters last Saturday as she clung to a tree from a frigid, fast-moving creek near Ste. Rose du Lac has returned home.
The girl was treated for hypothermia and released Wednesday from hospital, RCMP said.
The girl and her father were travelling in their truck across a low-level crossing of a creek just outside town in the dark about 10 p.m., unaware the water had risen to impassable levels. The truck's engine became wet and stopped running, stranding them in the vehicle with swirling creek water halfway up the doors.
Knowing her father could not swim, she had attempted to swim to the creek bank but was swept away by the flood water. She managed to hang onto a nearby tree until help arrived.
Two volunteer firefighters went neck-deep into the water to rescue the girl, while her father was rescued from the roof of the truck by firefighters who reached him using the bucket of a neighbour's tractor.

Durable Wool Socks...
By: xenataur
Warm and durable, these have lasted quite a while out in the field. I work often, and rarely can switch out my socks between shifts, and these have lasted me through many long weekends. Gee I wish i had more.

Toasty socks...
By: teampryor
Being a resident of the south I do not buy insulated boots, instead I rely on quality wool socks to keep my feet warm. These Fox River socks stay up all day long and do a good job of keeping my feet dry and warm. I would call these a semi thick sock.

Christmas gift for my son...
By: loum
My son longed for a pair of socks that would give him comfort as he endured the winter storms of SD. I searched and searched for a pair of socks that would stand up to the abuse that he gives his feet. Low and behold while searching the vastness of the internet we stumbled upon this website. Because of the extended size of footness, I was able to find the size that would beholden to his feet. I ordered them for the celebration of the birth of Christ and the Fox River socks truly pleasure my sons feet.

Comfy Work Socks...
By: Simon
I had not heard of Fox River socks before I came to the Working Person website, but I was looking for wool socks and decided to give them a try. I work on my feet on a concrete warehouse floor all day and started wearing thick(er) wool socks when I learned that Harley-Davidson test riders, who log long, endurance-testing miles on H-D motorcycles, routinely wore wool socks not only in cold temperatures, but in hot, desert conditions, as well. I have since been wearing only wool socks at work, and wear cotton socks only with my athletic shoes. I've now been wearing these Fox River socks for about a year, and they have held up extremely well. They are not quite as thick as hiking socks, but they are thicker than your average dress or work sock and provide good cushioning in work boots, about the best thickness for a work boot I have found. They have outlasted my Red Wing socks and my Smart Wool socks, and are on a par with my REI wool socks, which have lasted really well and have been my benchmark so far. I would definitely buy more of these, as they have proven to be comfortable, keep my feet from getting sweaty, and have been a good value.

winter crew socks...
By: BrianH
I like the crew height of these socks. Some of the mid calf socks tend to slide down and bunch up at the top of the high to boots where these stay put and are comfortable all day. The wool blend is remarkably warm and my feet feel dry, which after a day in the field is remarkable. There is good thickness to the sock to give them a cushiony feel and my feet aren't sweaty. Two pair at this price is just an added bonus.

Consistently comfortable, durable and well-made!...
By: Robin
I have been purchasing these socks for my husband for many years & they are his favorite. They provide comfort (he is on his feet all day), stay up, and last quite awhile. He doesn't even need them for the warmth, since we live in socal and the temps are not cold, but he loves the comfort and the way they feel on his feet. He wears a size 14 shoes, and these socks come in XL which is hard to find. I found workingperson.com on an internet search and this is the first time I have ordered from them and they did not let me down. They will be my go-to place for these socks from now on. Thank you also for the great customer service, I appreciate it!

A Great Tough Sock...
By: logger992u
I've been wearing these exact socks for years. They last a long time and are comfortable. I like the thickness and toughness. I wear them year around with my steel toed logger boots and my rocky insulated boots. I don't own any shoes and wear 6" boots for shoes and use these socks then too. Only socks I'll buy and wear. I hope they never quit making them. I order from "workingperson.com" because I can't buy them locally anymore. Great prices and great service!

Nice medium weight wool blend socks...
By: adamc
These were on sale, so I took a chance. .I bought 10 pairs. ..pleasantly surprised how nice they are. These I would say are "light" heavyweight socks.....it just started getting cold here in new England. .so far so good.....it'll probably buy more. I have larger feet so the 2x size is perfect, as most of my socks feel too small ....

Comfortable warm socks...
By: adc
Great socks for the price. I bought these socks during the Black Friday week sale. I have worn many different wool socks and these I believe are at or near the top of the list. They keep my feet warm and are very comfortable with my work boots. It seems like they are very well made and should have a very long life. I'm glad I bought them and would recommend them.

There is nothing like the warmth and ambiance of a traditional wood burning fireplace. Most everyone agrees that the heating efficiency has a lot to be desired, as most of the heat produced from the wood fire goes directly up the chimney. However, the crackle of the logs burning, along with the glow of the hardwood coals has a welcoming and relaxing effect to anybody within the space.
There is absolutely nothing wrong with a traditional fireplace. After all, the American Pioneers used one every day of their lives. This is when and where the tradition started, out of necessity. Their basic survival depended upon a fire in their cabin or living space.
A fireplace stood at one end of their cabin. It had a log chimney, chinked and lined with clay. The hearth was usually made with stones and it was their family gathering place. It was usually the mother who kept the fire burning, most of the time for cooking and to provide light and warmth.
The mother had her own set of unique cooking utensils, used to cook over the fire, as well as tools for maintaining the fire. While in the cabin, her chores were done mostly by the light of the fireplace.
Now a fireplace such this has been improved and modernized for the homes of today. Certainly people occasionally cook in them, but mainly they are used for heating the living space, as well as ambiance, as mentioned earlier.
Concrete chimneys, bricks and masonry, not to mention steel chimney caps to keep out the rain and critters, have replaced log and clay construction. Most fireplaces have a steel damper that opens and closes to control the fire and prevent drafts.
Maintenance has to be performed to keep the fireplace operating properly and safely. An occasional chimney cleaning is most important. This prevents the buildup of creosote that can catch fire on the walls of the chimney in the event of extreme temperatures. A chimney fire can be a most dangerous and unpleasant event.
While on the subject of creosote buildup, it should be mentioned that burning only seasoned hardwoods, such as oak, apple or hickory, could slow the process down.
More often than not, the homeowner has a set of fireplace tools handy, usually on display near, or on the hearth. These tools are used to occasionally clean the burning chamber of ashes and soot. A small broom and shovel are usually accompanied by a fireplace poker, which is used to adjust the burning logs and move the hot coals, thereby adjusting the flames and maintaining the heat.
A fire poker is the handiest of the tools mentioned above, and a wrought iron fire poker will last for a lifetime. Used for tending a fire in the fireplace or a campfire, there is no better tool to have at your disposal. The fire poker exists for safety, efficiency and prevents burnt shoes, clothing and fingers.
Tom Watson is the owner of Black Iron Junction, a wonderful source of wrought iron decorative accessories. If you are interested in a hand forged campfire poker or fireplace poker, please visit http://www.blackironjunction.com/site/1623467/page/805963 Special ordered and stamped with your initials, these wrought iron pokers are unique and one of a kind.

Book Reviews methodological shortcoming we now possess a compendium which provides useful insights into various anthropological concepts in the period between 1750 and 1850. Every scholar involved in the history of the life sciences to the beginning of the so-called scientific era will gratefully profit from the innumerable new historical insights in this book. Michael Hagner, Medical University of Lubeck JULES KOSKY, Mutual friends: Charles Dickens and Great Ormond Street Children's Hospital, London, Weidenfeld & Nicolson, 1989, 8vo, pp. x, 245, illus., £14.95. In 1909 "the editor of a standard edition of Dicken's collected works made the overwhelming claim that The Hospital for Sick Children was 'founded on a small scale over fifty years ago by Charles Dickens and a few others'." The narrative of this book firmly refutes the claim. It emerges that Dickens's part in founding the institution in Great Ormond Street was indirect. His journal, Household Words, published a sentimental article 'Drooping Buds' (co-written with Henry Morley) six weeks after the hospital opened on 16 February 1852. In February 1858 Dickens was the main speaker at a "Festival" to raise funds; a few months later he gave a benefit reading of A Christmas Carol for the hospital. Dickens described the Children's Hospital poignantly in Our Mutual Friend as the haven where Betty Higden's grandson Johnny finds refuge. This is all. Kosky's book primarily concerns the real founder of the Hospital, Charles West (1816-98). The task is not easy. There is no previous biography of West and there is a shortage of primary material about the origins of the Hospital (of which Kosky is Honorary Archivist). West was born the son of a small businessman and Baptist lay preacher. His childhood-unlike Dickens's-seems to have been serene. At St Bartholomew's West won prizes but since his father was a Baptist minister, he could not go on to Oxford. He studied instead for two years in Bonn and Paris, where he worked at the L'H6pital des Enfants

It's great to see a mining company on AIM doing exactly what it said it would do, especially in the current climate. This morning, Kibo Mining (KIBO) delivered its latest important milestone, on schedule. The company has released the findings of Phase 2 Stage 1 of its development plan for the Mbeya Coal to Power Project in Tanzania. Based on exploiting the 109.39mt inferred and indicated resource at the Rukwa coal deposit, this represents another significant step forward for Kibo. It's now something of a surprise to see the company's share price trading at 4.75p. Up only 0.63p on the day, it seems likely that Kibo's shares are held back by the general headwinds blowing a gale against the resource sector. Unperturbed, the company continues to push forward.

As a former online poker player, I learned two things from that excruciatingly dull game. First, life is too short. Second, how important it is to play the averages. I've probably gained the most from the first lesson, but the second has proven to be surprisingly valuable on a daily basis. It taught me that consistent success often requires making counter-intuitive calls based purely on the long-term mathematical probability of success of repeating the same decision. This technique can often be applied to trading AIM stocks and at current levels Red Rock Resources (RRR) might present just such a set up.

I am really surprised at the number of commentators and ordinary shareholders, who view the current valuation of oil stocks as a God-given buying opportunity. As I've written before, all the evidence suggests we are in the early phases of an aggressive global price war. Saudi Arabia (and for that read OPEC) appears determined to crush the US "fracking boom", through a sustained campaign of price suppression. Times are almost certainly going to get a lot tougher before they improve. Any talk of farm-outs or a flurry of deal making seems greatly misplaced. This morning, Global Energy Development (GED) released an announcement, far more in keeping with the times.

It has amazed me how writing for ShareProphets attracts the unwanted attentions of crazies. As soon as you write anything that is perceived as being vaguely negative about a treasured stock, the nutters come crawling out of the woodwork to launch tirades of social media abuse. I won't name the chief cheerleader for Regency Mines (RGM), but this person took exception to my comment at the end of July that it was "surely only a matter of time" before Regency placed. Tweet followed email followed Tweet about what utter rot (not the word used by my avid fan) I was talking, how I didn't know anything about the company and there was no way it would place. Well, after today's announcement, Regency has placed twice in the last seven weeks. What a shock. Perhaps some readers of ShareProphets would do well to spend a little less time frantically bashing keyboards and a little more time reading Tom and mine's latest book "The 49 Golden Rules of Making Money from Oil, Gas & Mining Stocks".

STAFF, pupils, governors and parents from Queen Elizabeth School, Kirkby Lonsdale, are this weekend taking part in a 'Bob Graham Round' relay to raise money for two charities.
They plan to complete the 72-mile circuit of 42 of the Lake District's highest peaks (27,000ft of climbing) in less than 24 hours.
Money raised will go to the Paul Percy Memorial Fund which provides grants for young people to enable them to get involved in outdoor activities.
Mr Percy was a teacher within the school who tragically lost his life while walking in the Langdales.
And also benefiting will be The Dwarf Sports Association which supports families of children with Dwarfism and gives them access to sporting activities up to an international standard.
The attempt started at midnight on Friday May 16 from the Moot Hall in Keswick and involved participants running sections of the round in small groups handing a digital camera as a baton on to the next set of runners.

Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) was reminded Friday of the disadvantages of being an incumbent this cycle.
After spending the week at the heart of the legislative debate surrounding the repeal of the Pentagon's "Don't ask, don't tell" policy, McCain was scheduled to fly back to Arizona on a 6 a.m. flight.
He's facing a tough primary challenge from former Rep. J.D. Hayworth (R-Ariz.) and had a series of campaign appearances lined up Friday, starting with a town hall event in the Phoenix area.
But McCain's flight had mechanical problems and was delayed leaving Washington. His campaign subsequently had only a few hours' notice to reschedule to Saturday the town hall event in Fountain Hills.
This wasn't the first time McCain missed a campaign appearance because his responsibilities kept him in Washington.
On May 14, McCain failed to make the opening of his Tucson campaign office because his flight was grounded by weather during a layover in Dallas. His campaign staff were left scrambling to find a replacement for the senator and eventually had to settle for Tucson Mayor Bob Walkup and local car dealer Jim Click.
"He flies commercial; this happens to everyone," said McCain spokesman Brian Rogers.
That's certainly true. But in a year when incumbents need to campaign hard to save their jobs, the challenge of getting back home from D.C. is an added complication.
And it doesn't look like the Senate's summer schedule will provide any respite.
On the docket: the financial regulatory reform conference report, Elena Kagan's Supreme Court confirmation, the war supplemental conference report, an extension of jobless benefits, a defense authorization, small-business loans and other jobs bills, plus a budget resolution.
It seems McCain's campaign staff can expect more delays.

Why we need good people?
Talking about a serious concept is very delicate. Issues over the law meaning highly dangerous crimes occur all the time. I believe there us a high chance future of crimes can take over the day if tomorrow, but is important to have good positive educated people.
Having policemen, firefighters, soldiers, and well high tech technology on the right hands our generation of innocent people is safe but we can't let crime rate possibilities increase specially using technology. However, it is very important to diminish terrorism from areas in the United States. To be able to do that we need positive combat people to fight for the rights of the people. Everyday we need to be on top of it and that starts with you to be educated with manners to have a better bright future because good people bring the good of other people. Always have to analyze suspicious activity's and prevent letting terrorism getting in the hands of technology prospers to evolve.
So basically the whole point is to take the worlds technology to success by thee right hands of educated people. Being able to do that we need to have a low crime rate possibilities by having people ready to fight for our rights of human beings to actually have technology for the good to use all intelligence to live in harmony. Starting now society should start planning the best for our world before we can let terror reach over the government we need to plan our future for the best of our own good. - Juan Ramirez Lespron

Rovers close in on Brown

Blackburn are set to complete the signing of Gillingham goalkeeper Jason Brown on Tuesday.
The 24-year-old is out of contract at The Priestfield Stadium and is believed to be undergoing a medical with the Premiership club on Monday.
The Wales international is expected to provide back-up for established number one Brad Friedel.
Brown's imminent departure will be a bitter blow for Gills boss Ronnie Jepson, especially with the news that player-coach Paul Crichton has joined non-league Cambridge on a two-year deal.
The 37-year-old keeper only made one first team appearance last term as he combined his playing duties with a role on the club's backroom staff.

Melbourne Victory players will walk taller when inspirational skipper Mark Milligan makes his long-awaited A-League return, says coach Kevin Muscat.
Milligan hasn't featured for Victory since he copped a three-match suspension for elbowing Sydney FC's Terry Antonis back in December, with his absence extended as he took part in the Socceroos' successful Asian Cup campaign.
Saturday night's clash against Sydney FC at Allianz Stadium will be Milligan's first A-League outing nearly two months to the day after the incident with Antonis.
Muscat's side, who sit in second spot on the ladder after last week's 3-0 win against Melbourne City, have coped admirably in the skipper's absence, but the Victory coach is delighted to have his on-field general back in the fold.
"He's got undoubted qualities, otherwise he wouldn't be in the national team and wouldn't have started in the (Asian Cup) final," Muscat said on Friday.
"From our perspective it's great to have him back. He brings a lot of confidence to the people around him.
"When he's out there on the ball he brings a lot of confidence to his teammates."

Despite talk of layoffs at Georgia's technical colleges, there likely will be none at Augusta's campus.
A decline in enrollment and the increasing cost of offering modern programs have created a financial crunch statewide, said Mike Light, a spokesman for the Georgia Department of Technical and Adult Education.
Because the state's 34 tech schools are funded based on their enrollments, the proposed budget for the upcoming fiscal year has them getting about $7 million less than this year. That could lead to the loss of four positions, on average, for every technical college.
But layoffs are a "worst-case scenario," Mr. Light said, and one not likely to be seen locally, according to Augusta Technical College President Terry Elam.
"There will be an effect on all of us, but at this point I don't foresee layoffs," he said.
While most technical colleges have experienced a two-year slide in enrollment, Mr. Elam said Augusta Tech has managed to increase its enrollment by 26.8 percent since 2001.
The college peaked at 7,080 students in 2005 before falling back to 6,928 in 2006, the president said. But that was the only decline in the six-year period.
Mr. Elam said he has no control over how much money the state gives Augusta Tech, but he does have some control over enrollment. To counter state cuts, his strategy will be to increase enrollment.
The college has focused on student retention and created programs students want and local businesses need. Some of the hotter programs are customer service and health care, Mr. Elam said.
But the state budget cuts haven't been finalized, Mr. Light said, and state lawmakers recognize that technical colleges are an investment in the state's future.
If cuts are made, it wouldn't be the first time.
Mr. Elam said he never expects to receive 100 percent funding because there are almost always cuts. "It's really become a part of our culture," he said.
The statewide decline in enrollment comes after more than 20 years of growth. In the early 1980s, about 12,000 students were enrolled in tech schools, but that had swelled to 97,000 students by 2003.
Officials blame the decline on the dot-com bubble's burst.
Also, a cap on the number of credits students can use through the HOPE scholarship is linked to a decline in the number of high school students taking dual-enrollment courses at tech college campuses.
Associated Press reports were used in this article.
