3 races to go, leading the series – it’s his to lose really.
I don’t know, couple of years on the big red career wrecker and everyone was ready to write him off, or maybe it’s because of his old age – IMHO it’s not the years that mean MotoGP riders retire earlier than most other sports, it’s the injuries and Rossi’s only really had 1 major injury.
Anyway, the pressure is on, but who the hell thinks Rossi, The GOAT, The Doctor is going to crumble? Nah, he could crash, his bike might give up, anything that’s Motor Sport, but he’s not going to choke.
