Currently, he is still wearing the number 46 kebanggaanya it and did not follow the world champion, former world champion who chose to change the number 1 after getting the title of world champion.Entertainer
When I first joined the 500cc Gp team with former Doohan, headed by an Australian reliable mechanic named Jerremy Burgess, paddock atmosphere strongly influenced temperament temperamental Doohan. All the mechanics and team staff looked serious and likely stressful. The atmosphere is made Rossi's ridiculous, he thought he could not imagine racing without being fun, then when he started winning, he was determined to celebrate mass, he said he just wanted to do something new, show emotion won the race.Since then, the party became his trademark victory. Not just with friends, as well as thousands of supporters who packed the circuit. By its actions, Rossi was like a magnet that attracts people to watch the GP. The lovers still remember the GP will give a lift action costumed fans who traveled chicken circuit, action fans who give a lift to dress the doctor, he also never ride a giant figure as a symbol of world champion, also the action of his wheelie and burnout are countless each victory. He also often gives kneepad or her hat to the fans by throwing while on the podium. "Valentino is a great fighter. But he also knew that if we are in the middle of the entertainment business. So he also enjoys entertaining, "says Burgess.Nickname Rossi
In the course of his racing rossi often change nickname and do things that attract attention and entertain. He reasoned that it was done starting with the intention of having fun and doing something funny.Nickname Rossifumi Rossi created by his friend when Rossi race in the 125cc class this nickname created by Rossi impressed with the typical Japanese racer with long hair, Norick Abe who was then aged 17 years and a fierce battle with Michael Doohan and Kevin Scwantz 500cc class, because The original name of the Japanese rider Norifumi Abe then dubbed Rossifumi.Tahun 2004 Rossi Rossi and Abe are both defending Yamaha are in different teams but one graphic, that dominance was in the team colors biru.Rossi Gauloises Fortuna Yamaha Team, while Abe is ruled by the Fortuna Gauloises Tech 3 Yamaha Team.Valentinik This name comes from the Daffy Duck cartoon character who becomes a superhero in Italy named Paperinik. The nickname was wearing at the time of the race in the 250cc class.The Doctor After rising to the 500cc class at the 2000 season with Rossi calls himself The Doctor because of race in the 500cc class took the seriousness and she felt herself not a kid anymore, other than that he also liked the idea as a illmuwan crazy and do crazy experiments, he considered worth taking nickname it after getting the achievement as a world champion. "In the 500cc race we do not need a superhero. What we need just a quiet, calm, and thinkers such as doctors, "he said. In addition, the name of Valentino in Italy mostly used by doctors. He also began to reduce the victory celebration that he deems are not worth doing. "Just by waving like the other drivers, and night-out party with my friends."Switch to Yamaha
at the end of 2003 season 2004 season ahead of Valentino Rossi made a surprising decision. He decided to migrate from the team that defended the time it is the manufacturer team Honda, Repsol Honda HRC that have accompanied him won the world championship 2002 and 2003 and brought Doohan won the world champion 1994, 1995, 1996, 1997, 1998 also became world champion Alex Criville 1999. Rossi decided to leave the super team and chose to join the Yamaha team, who last won the world championship in 1992 by racer Wayne Rainey. Rossi did not move to Yamaha team alone, he also brought Jerremy Burgess, head of the mechanics who used to deal with Doohan and Criville. They conducted a series of tests to fix the motor technologies owned by Rossi's Yamaha YZR M1 to be able to rival the strongest bike in MotoGP at the time, owned Honda RC211V.About this move, many are not expected and pessimistic he would be able to defend the champion title. One of the pessimistic statement came from Max Biaggi, nemesis says, "I do not think he moved to Yamaha, but nevertheless it will be difficult to beat Honda. Rossi himself even less optimistic he can defend his world champion. "We need time to appear competitive, to win the first season with Yamaha obviously very difficult." But he dispelled all these pessimistic views. even in the first series in GPWelkom 2004 season, South Africa, he defeated Max Biaggi riding a Honda motorcycle, albeit with a very tight fight, with Yamaha motor, which terakhirnaik podium in 1992! even in 2004 and 2005, becoming world champion Rossi with Yamaha! and became the first Yamaha rider the most winners in a season (9 x rossi champions in season 2005)Compliment against Rossi
Mick Doohan:
He did it (the race) is far more serious than I

Randy Mamola:
If there is a race and all riders wear motorcycle with the same technology and machinery, the champion will remain the motor of yellow numbered 46. VALENTINO ROSSI!
