Valentino Rossi born in Italy February 16, 1979 is a racer in the world motorcycle racing grandprix after Michael Doohan era with the title of world champion in four different classes achieved during the seven-year career. The son of former 250cc Grand Prix racer Graziano Rossi and Stefania Palma has had many records and achievements that go beyond the seniors. This eccentric racer posted a total of seven world titles: once in the 125cc class, once in the 250cc class, five times in the top class, 500cc and Moto GP.
In a long career GP Rossi always wore the number 46, the number he wore after watching the action of a Japanese wildcard rider numbered 46 in TV that impressed. Moreover, the number is also used by Graziano Rossi, father, when winning the first race of the 1979 Morbidelli. Today he still wears the number 46 kebanggaanya it and do not follow the world-champion world champion earlier that choose to change the number 1 after getting the title of world champion.
When I first joined the 500cc GP Doohan with former team headed by a reliable mechanic named Jerremy Australia Burgess, paddock atmosphere greatly influenced temperament temperamental Doohan. All mechanics and team staff looked serious and likely stressful. This atmosphere makes Rossi determined to celebrate when a massive win. Since then, her trademark victory party. Not only with friends, also thousands of supporters who packed the circuit. He also did Action "wheelie" and "burnout" if gain victory and often provide "kneepad" or hat to the fans to throw while on the podium.
In his racing career, Rossi always changing nicknames and do things that attract attention and entertain. He reasoned that it was all done with the intention of having fun and doing something funny. "Rossifumi", the nickname given by his friend Rossi at Rossi race in the 125cc class. The nickname was created because Rossi wowed with typical Japanese racer with long hair, Norick Abe. In 2004, Rossi and Abe are both defending Yamaha. Rossi was on the team Gauloises Fortuna Yamaha Team, while Abe in Fortuna Gauloises Tech 3 Yamaha Team.
"Valentinik", the nickname is derived from the cartoon "Daffy Duck" is a "superhero" in Italy named Paperinik. The nickname was wearing at the time of the race in the 250cc class. Other nicknames is "The Doctor" after he rode in the 500cc class in the 2000 season. At the end of the 2003 season before the 2004 season, Valentino Rossi made the decision to move from the Honda factory team, Repsol Honda HRC. He chose to join with the Yamaha team last won the world championship in 1992 by racer Wayne Rainey. Rossi moved to Yamaha team alone, he also brought Jerremy Burgess, chief mechanic who used to deal with Doohan and Criville. They conducted a series of tests to fix the motor technology Rossi's Yamaha YZR M1 to be able to compete with the strongest bike in the Moto GP at the time, Honda's RC211V.
Regarding the move, many who did not think and pessimistic that Rossi would be able to defend her title. But he dispelled all the pessimistic outlook. Even on the first series of the 2004 season at the GP Welkom, South Africa, he beat Max Biaggi riding Honda motorcycles, though with a very tight fight with the last yamaha motorcycle riding on the podium in 1992. In 2004 and 2005, becoming world champion Rossi with Yamaha and became the first Yamaha rider most won in a single season (9-time champion in the 2005 season).
