Dark Angel
Still kickin' it!
..He's absolutely the greatest - no contest! :bow:
...What's interesting is the apparently universal approval that's now being heaped on his shoulders by the fans at the tracks. We've heard his name chanted at Jerez; a striking tribute considering it was only the first race of the season. At Mugello - well - no surprises to hear the support for him there! But the chanting at Donington: "Ross-see!, Ross-see!" was as loud and as passionate as any we've heard. There was a real sense of appreciation in the air as Valentino delivered yet another racing masterclass.
He's a seven-times World Champion who's triumphed in every class, including the transition from two-, to four-stroke machinery. His talent is undeniable and his luck, on occasion, has been incredible. Because of this, it's easy to overlook his bravery and dedication - but there's another factor in his make-up that no-one seems to mention: as the dominant rider of his era, he has to work harder to win than any other rider. But he's so hard-working that this year's championship is probably the one that he most deserves to win.
I hope he does! k1ap
