It is difficult to find a sportsman with the sympathy of a Valentino Rossi. It is always a pleasure to see his interviews. Even after so many years, he always has his way, always his smile, his way of speaking that makes him so enjoyable and lovable. We will really miss him !

It is so obvious. So many popular athletes are so SELF INDULGENT. They think that they are a pretty big deal like when they talk or their gestures. But Valentino is something different. He doesn't take himself so seriously. In every single interview he seems so NORMAL, like us ... GREATEST OF ALL TIME...... :)
He’s such a lovely guy so down to earth so classy so happy so cheerful so funny just an all round good guy I’m gonna miss Valentino so much when he retires Congratulations to him on his amazing career on bikes hopefully he can be hugely successful in cars too Also congratulations to him on becoming a soon to be dad
This Interview is just another Display of Vales charism. Valentino touches our heart. He had 30 year career and he still has this glow in his eyes. I guess it is only a matter of time till someone win 10 titles. But there will be never another Valentino Rossi.....Alora....IIiiie tinc tis is the truuu reeson why we luv him so much.

I think we’ve seen the last of this type of ‘character’ - Vale is an absolute legend, an ambassador for the sport. MOTOGP is going the way of F1 now - the riders are robots, PR is king and characters aren’t required. I just cannot see anyone coming up through the ranks who inspires so many people. Some try to copy but Vale will always be the best - he’s the whole package. I’m just glad he’s got to retire in one piece and with his health. Best of luck to him - it won’t be the same without him.

To me there's no motogp without Rossi. His aura of charisma is unpararreleled. He brought life to the sport like no one else did before or after. To be honest motogp has gotten quite boring already in the last years when he wasn't competitive. But i really can't see him in a managerial position. He's too much of a free bird for that. I can see him focus entirely on his racing team and spending his days traveling or racing in his private circuit with his friends.

Its a shame, because in the past in MotoGP has great American riders, champions.

I don’t think I’ll be watching motogp after Vale retires. Started watching because of him.
What a amazing man on and of the track my next favourite rider will never live up to him he’s fan base is amazing we all love him specially in uk what I sore yesterday was unreal sea of yellow every time he rides pass the crowd go crazy the 🐐 forever enjoy retirement my friend 🥲
No doubt, the greatest competitor motorsport will ever see. 26 years is off the scale. Then add the success. Then add the person. Go enjoy some massive bowls of bolognese or I know of a cool pizza place in Tavullia 🇮🇹
I have watched this man since he first entered 500s and got to know all the great names he competed against. All bar two have gone while he carried on. I have been in awe of his sheer ability to read a race and deliver on Sundays when maybe it didn't go too well on Saturdays. Now he retires and I don't know any of the riders bar Marquez or Dovisioso. Shan't miss MotoGP but I will most certainly miss this terrifically funny, talented, brave and honest rider immensely.
He is a legend in MOTOGP👍👍👍
Suzi is great! And Vale? GOAT! I hope we will see him racing cars for many more years.
He is the best! So humble!

Happy retirement? Enjoy life live strong... My icon and hero! Viva Rossi......
Relaxed and easy going when interviewed belies the fact that he was an ultra competitive-take no prisoner racer on the track. If Vale was friendly with a fellow racer, that indicated the racer was of no threat to Vale. If a fellow racer posed a threat, Rossi treated him as the ultimate enemy. I have watched Rossi ever since he started. Unbelievable longevity. Most be difficult realizing it is over. He had a great run, so no need to feel sorry for him. I will miss him.
The guy with always a funny great face ! 46 FOREVER
