    the guy is a genius, not only he is an exceptional driver, but he found a way to implement a moral pressure on all other drivers, every time they see him in their mirror, they HAVE to let him pass.. amazing guy...

    Yes, either that or wipe out and not finish the race

    I remember the Rossi vs Biaggi for the lead 4 or so years ago and Biaggi would always wipe out in several different races

    I'm still wondering where the mirrors are mounted on a motogp-racebike?! ;-)

    Congratulations to Vale for his historic achievement! He's simply the best...

    The mirrors are in the helmets. They have little slit convex mirrors on each side that you can see out of with a bit of perpheial(sp) vision.

    Re: Valentino Rossi wins 2008 MotoGP title

    Rossi - what can you say, he's the greatest of all time. So happy to see him back on top after a tough 2 years.

    Anybody see Criville doing a couple laps on the NSR500? Man, what an awesome machine with awesome sound. Reminded me of the old 500cc days. He got on the power a bit hard and you could see the bike getting squirrely! I wish they would do away with all the traction control and electronics, and even go back to 990cc.

    I like the fact Rossi helmet adorned the numbers of the late Norick Abe! He put in a fantastic performance and believes him and his team are one of the hardest working in the paddock.
