Valentino Rossi Manager a Le Mans: 90 Victories in MotoGp!
Even Angel Nieto paid tribute to Valentino Rossi after the Italian driver equaled his Grand Prix win tally of 90 victories in MotoGp.
LE MANS (France), 18 May 2008 - The fight for the lead in the motogp world championship has just become much more interesting. If we look at the winners of the first five races of the season, this is one of the most even championships in the last few years, or at least the most uncertain one: Stoner, Lorenzo, Pedrosa and two races won by Rossi.
MotoGp Standings - Rossi in Yamaha now leads the standings with 97 points, followed by Lorenzo and Pedrosa with 94, and Stoner in fourth place with 56. “I haven’t been the leader since last year’s race in Jerez de la Frontera. Stoner? He was fast today and he could have been a contender for the podium. I was a bit faster, but I’m sad to see him break down. The championship is still very long and we are all very close in the standings. It’s too soon to say Stoner is out of the title race.”
Plus, Valentino Rossi, a great manager of himself, is equaling Angel Nieto 90 Grand Prix victories milestone. The MotoGP Legend was even included in the celebrations in Le Mans.
