Sunday to forget for Valentino Rossi a Le Mans. The French Grand Prix it only lasted a few seconds for the ‘Doctor’, who fell already during the first corner and that from three world championships in a row does not collect points. Enough to lead him to one heavy self-criticism at the end of the day, about a new very negative period after the excellent signs of the beginning of the season.
“I’m very sad – the Yamaha rider immediately admits -. Fall like this at the first corner it’s ugly. My start was also good, and after the bend I was in good shape. Due to the cold though the conditions were very difficult. In the first on the left we all entered very quietly, but then the bike started behind me. Sincerely I’m confused what happened “.
“In the last three races I have not collected not even a point. I must say that lately I am also quite unfortunate, because my performance wasn’t bad at all. During practice I was always quite competitive ”, underlines Valentino Rossi.
But he denies that he is going through such a black period as to have no precedent: “Unfortunately I remember others, because they happened also last year. As al Mugello, a Barcelona e shafts, where they arrived three consecutive retreats. Such things shouldn’t happen, but when they do we ask ourselves many questions“.
And this last consideration, in a certain sense, frightens: “In the coming days I’ll think about it even more. Because I don’t seem to have taken the wrong approach. Especially since we have always worked well and we got competitive in the race ”.
“It would take a very long speech on the existence of bad luck. In the course of my career I have not never understood if it exists or not, but if it exists lately I’m quite unlucky, ”he admits then.
However, there is the possibility of raising one’s head: “The beauty is that there are other races. On paper they are difficult, but I will try to give your best. I will also do it to Aragon and Valencia. They are among the worst tracks for me, it would be nice to be fast there too ”.
