i guess now the time has come to face the harsh truth, guys.

rossi is a drip when it comes to driving cars. next years yamaha had to pay Longhi, a third class driver, to lose the race to give Rossi's shattered ego some self-assurance injections.

this year, when things ran as normal, rossi could only manage to finish ahead of people who actually never saw a rally car: Simoncelli doesn't even have the legal age to drive them, Lorenzo was scared to go flying around with it even if his navigator told him you can't crash like that with 4 wheels, and Rossi's father, well.... come on, don't even make me go into him, i don't like shooting on the red cross.

in the walesh's manche yamaha will probably arrange him some rocketed car so he'll manage not being lapped even though rally doesn't run on tracks.
but hey, we'll see.
