Ducati did indeed try to seduce Rossi into riding their MotoGP bike, the <a href="/wiki/Ducati_Desmosedici" title="Ducati Desmosedici">Desmosedici</a>, but for numerous reasons Rossi passed the offer up. Critics say that compared to the other manufacturers, Ducati had a significant way to go before being competitive even with Rossi at the helm. This proved to be the truth with Ducati's lacklustre performance in the 2004 season, which had actually been worse than their inaugural year in MotoGP in 2003. In his 2005 autobiography, What If I'd Never Tried It?, Rossi offered another reason for choosing Yamaha over Ducati, saying that the mindset at Ducati Corse was similar to the one he was trying to escape from at Honda. Ultimately, Rossi signed a two-year contract with rivals Yamaha reportedly worth in excess of US$12 million; a price no other manufacturer, even Honda, was willing to pay.<a href="#cite_note-85">[84]</a><a href="#cite_note-auto5-32">[31]</a><a href="#cite_note-86">[85]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading4"><h4 id="Yamaha_(2004–2010)">Yamaha (2004–2010)</h4>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Valentino_Rossi&action=edit&section=16" title="Edit section: Yamaha (2004–2010)">edit</a>]</div> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading5"><h5 id="2004">2004</h5>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Valentino_Rossi&action=edit&section=17" title="Edit section: 2004">edit</a>]</div> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Yamaha_YZR-M1_2004.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/a1/Yamaha_YZR-M1_2004.jpg/220px-Yamaha_YZR-M1_2004.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="168" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/a1/Yamaha_YZR-M1_2004.jpg/330px-Yamaha_YZR-M1_2004.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/a1/Yamaha_YZR-M1_2004.jpg/440px-Yamaha_YZR-M1_2004.jpg 2x" data-file-width="1342" data-file-height="1024" /></a><figcaption><a href="/wiki/Yamaha_YZR-M1" title="Yamaha YZR-M1">Yamaha YZR-M1</a> used by Rossi in the <a href="/wiki/2004_Grand_Prix_motorcycle_racing_season" title="2004 Grand Prix motorcycle racing season">2004</a> season</figcaption></figure> Rossi made the switch from Honda to Yamaha and signed a two-year contract with the team.<a href="#cite_note-87">[86]</a><a href="#cite_note-88">[87]</a> Many doubted his move and would expect Biaggi, who joined the <a href="/wiki/Pons_Racing" title="Pons Racing">Honda Pons</a> team a year earlier, as well as Gibernau to be genuine contenders for the title this year.

A chunk of rubber from his front tyre had been thrown onto his front fender, knocking it off the motorbike.<a href="#cite_note-128">[127]</a> Things didn't improve for him in the next round in <a href="/wiki/2006_French_motorcycle_Grand_Prix" title="2006 French motorcycle Grand Prix">France</a>, he brushed the back of Honda rider <a href="/wiki/Dani_Pedrosa" title="Dani Pedrosa">Dani Pedrosa</a>, causing him to run wide and hit <a href="/wiki/Randy_de_Puniet" title="Randy de Puniet">Randy de Puniet</a> who then fell from his Kawasaki after striking Sete Gibernau.

He was leading comfortably in first place with a gap of over three seconds until his Yamaha had a mechanical problem on lap 21, forcing Rossi to retire again. Rossi would leave Le Mans eighth in the standings with a 43-points deficit to Nicky Hayden.<a href="#cite_note-129">[128]</a> After these two disappointing races, Rossi bounced back by scoring two wins: a regular victory in <a href="/wiki/2006_Italian_motorcycle_Grand_Prix" title="2006 Italian motorcycle Grand Prix">Italy</a> and a pole-victory in <a href="/wiki/2006_Catalan_motorcycle_Grand_Prix" title="2006 Catalan motorcycle Grand Prix">Catalunya</a>.<a href="#cite_note-130">[129]</a><a href="#cite_note-131">[130]</a> In the <a href="/wiki/2006_Dutch_TT" title="2006 Dutch TT">Dutch</a> round, he only finished eighth after he fractured his hand and ankle when he fell on Thursday. The race was won by Nicky Hayden, who battled with Yamaha teammate Colin Edwards on the last lap. Edwards tried to lunge past Hayden, but ran wide onto the gravel and eventually fell in the last corner.<a href="#cite_note-132">[131]</a> With the disappointing result in Assen, Rossi took second place in <a href="/wiki/2006_British_motorcycle_Grand_Prix" title="2006 British motorcycle Grand Prix">Great Britain</a> and another win in <a href="/wiki/2006_German_motorcycle_Grand_Prix" title="2006 German motorcycle Grand Prix">Germany</a>, fighting tooth and nail with the three Honda's of Marco Melandri, Nicky Hayden and Dani Pedrosa.<a href="#cite_note-133">[132]</a> However, he retired once more in the <a href="/wiki/2006_United_States_motorcycle_Grand_Prix" title="2006 United States motorcycle Grand Prix">United States</a> round due to mechanical problems in the last few laps; local hero Nicky Hayden won the event to retain his title.

On Sunday, Hayden was taken out by his teammate Dani Pedrosa on lap 5, causing both riders to retire. On the last lap, Toni Elías who was in third place, overtook both Kenny Roberts Jr. and Rossi to take the lead. Rossi eventually got back in front, but Elías shot past him in the final corner and won the race with a minuscule 0.002 second advantage over Rossi.<a href="#cite_note-139">[138]</a><a href="#cite_note-140">[139]</a> This led to Rossi taking the points lead by 8 points going into the last round of the year. In the final race of the season, the <a href="/wiki/2006_Valencian_Community_motorcycle_Grand_Prix" title="2006 Valencian Community motorcycle Grand Prix">Valencian Community</a> round, Rossi needed to finish in second place or higher to win the title. He took the second consecutive pole position on Saturday whilst Hayden could only qualify fifth.<a href="#cite_note-141">[140]</a> However, Rossi got a poor start on Sunday when the red lights went out, dropping him back in seventh place. On lap five, he made a mistake, lost the front wheel of his M1 and slid out of contention. He managed to get going again, but it would be to no avail: Rossi only managed to finish 13th, finishing the season on 247 points and losing the title to Nicky Hayden by just five points. The race was won by wildcard rider Troy Bayliss, who replaced the injured Sete Gibernau.<a href="#cite_note-142">[141]</a> After the race, Rossi called his fall "a disaster" but congratulated Nicky on his won title as well.<a href="#cite_note-143">[142]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading5"><h5 id="2007">2007</h5>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Valentino_Rossi&action=edit&section=20" title="Edit section: 2007">edit</a>]</div> <figure class="mw-default-size mw-halign-right" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Valentino_rossi.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/1/1b/Valentino_rossi.jpg/220px-Valentino_rossi.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="146" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/1/1b/Valentino_rossi.jpg/330px-Valentino_rossi.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/1/1b/Valentino_rossi.jpg/440px-Valentino_rossi.jpg 2x" data-file-width="900" data-file-height="597" /></a><figcaption>Rossi in the <a href="/wiki/2007_Dutch_TT" title="2007 Dutch TT">2007 Dutch TT</a> with a special bike livery</figcaption></figure> After Rossi lost the title in 2006, he nonetheless tried again in 2007 as he was still one of the favourites to win the championship.

Rossi fought his way back to second, overtaking Loris Capirossi on lap nine, but lost positions quickly after the Michelin tyres started to fade and he suffered from a mysterious lack of speed, which allowed Toni Elías, Capirossi, <a href="/wiki/John_Hopkins_(motorcyclist)" title="John Hopkins (motorcyclist)">John Hopkins</a>, Marco Melandri and Alex Barros to overtake him within three laps. Stoner led every lap, won the race and gained a 10-point lead over Rossi in the process.<a href="#cite_note-147">[146]</a> Rossi, once again finding himself on the backfoot in the championship, responded in <a href="/wiki/2007_Chinese_motorcycle_Grand_Prix" title="2007 Chinese motorcycle Grand Prix">China</a> by setting another pole position on Saturday and finishing in second place after battling hard with Stoner.

He had made a poor start, dropping him from sixth to ninth on lap one, but was quick to regain two positions before struggling to pass Randy de Puniet for sixth place. When Rossi tried to squeeze his bike next to the Kawasaki of de Puniet, he lost the front of his M1 in low speed through a long right-hander and slid into the gravel.<a href="#cite_note-159">[158]</a> Rossi then picked up more points by finishing in fourth and seventh place in the <a href="/wiki/2007_United_States_motorcycle_Grand_Prix" title="2007 United States motorcycle Grand Prix">United States</a> and <a href="/wiki/2007_Czech_Republic_motorcycle_Grand_Prix" title="2007 Czech Republic motorcycle Grand Prix">Czech Republic</a>, but by then Stoner had built up a 60-point gap over Rossi when they left round 12.<a href="#cite_note-160">[159]</a> Rossi retired again in the new <a href="/wiki/2007_San_Marino_and_Rimini%27s_Coast_motorcycle_Grand_Prix" class="mw-redirect" title="2007 San Marino and Rimini's Coast motorcycle Grand Prix">San Marino</a> venue whilst Stoner took his eighth win of the season, extending his championship lead from 60 to 85 points.<a href="#cite_note-161">[160]</a><a href="#cite_note-162">[161]</a> In the next round in <a href="/wiki/2007_Portuguese_motorcycle_Grand_Prix" title="2007 Portuguese motorcycle Grand Prix">Portugal</a>, Rossi would win his final race of the season after a close fight with the Honda of Dani Pedrosa. Rossi worked his way up from fifth to third on the opening lap, overtaking Stoner on lap nine after Pedrosa did the same two laps earlier. He then overtook Pedrosa on lap ten and a fight commenced where Pedrosa re-overtook Rossi on lap 16, only taking the first spot back from the Spaniard with four laps left after he ran wide. Rossi made a similar error and Pedrosa retook the lead just half a lap later. Pedrosa was still narrowly ahead but Rossi was better on the brakes and plunged down the inside of the first corner in turn one.

He took 16th on lap seven and passed <a href="/wiki/Shinya_Nakano" title="Shinya Nakano">Shinya Nakano</a> for 15th and thus the final point, but was forced to retire on lap 18 after his YZR-M1 suffered a technical problem, this marking his third DNF of the season.<a href="#cite_note-166">[165]</a> The race was won by Dani Pedrosa, with Casey Stoner about five seconds behind in second place.<a href="#cite_note-167">[166]</a> Stoner dominated the season, winning ten races to take his first title, 125 points clear of second place Dani Pedrosa. Rossi on the other hand, finished in third place with 241 points, six less than in 2006. This was Rossi's lowest championship position since his first season in 1996 in the 125cc. Pedrosa's win in the last race in <a href="/wiki/2007_Valencian_Community_motorcycle_Grand_Prix" title="2007 Valencian Community motorcycle Grand Prix">Valencia</a> combined with Rossi's retirement meant that he beat Rossi by a single point. <div class="mw-heading mw-heading5"><h5 id="2008">2008</h5>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Valentino_Rossi&action=edit&section=21" title="Edit section: 2008">edit</a>]</div> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Valentino_Rossi_2008_Donington_Park_3.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/7/72/Valentino_Rossi_2008_Donington_Park_3.jpg/220px-Valentino_Rossi_2008_Donington_Park_3.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="147" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/7/72/Valentino_Rossi_2008_Donington_Park_3.jpg/330px-Valentino_Rossi_2008_Donington_Park_3.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/7/72/Valentino_Rossi_2008_Donington_Park_3.jpg/440px-Valentino_Rossi_2008_Donington_Park_3.jpg 2x" data-file-width="1991" data-file-height="1327" /></a><figcaption>Rossi in the <a href="/wiki/2008_British_motorcycle_Grand_Prix" title="2008 British motorcycle Grand Prix">2008 British Grand Prix</a></figcaption></figure> After two frustrating seasons where Rossi and Yamaha lost the title for two consecutive seasons to Nicky Hayden's Honda and Casey Stoner's Ducati, critics started to doubt if he was capable of ever winning another title.<a href="#cite_note-168">[167]</a><a href="#cite_note-169">[168]</a> Some said he should retire, whilst others assumed that Casey Stoner would win his second title or that Dani Pedrosa would become a genuine title contender after his strong performances in 2006 and 2007.<a href="#cite_note-170">[169]</a> This was also the year he switched from Michelin to Bridgestone tyres, which Rossi claimed was needed to "boost his motivation".<a href="#cite_note-171">[170]</a><a href="#cite_note-172">[171]</a> His new teammate, Jorge Lorenzo, did not opt for the change.

Approaching round 9 of the season, the <a href="/wiki/2008_Dutch_TT" title="2008 Dutch TT">Dutch</a> GP was not a success for Rossi. He came to Assen with an 11-point lead over runner-up Pedrosa but made a slow start from third on the grid, only to lose the back of his M1 machine on the entry of a tight left hand hairpin – his rear wheel sliding around and collecting Randy de Puniet's LCR Honda, taking him out in the process.

Going into round 15 of the championship, Rossi needed to finish third or higher to win the title in Motegi. He started off poor, dropping from fourth to fifth on the grid but quickly made up ground by overtaking Jorge Lorenzo and Nicky Hayden on lap two before he hunted down his title rivals. When Stoner made the pass on Pedrosa on lap six, Rossi did the same and went after Stoner until he made the race winning move on lap 14 under braking.

Rossi started fourth, but overtook teammate Lorenzo for third on lap two, then made a second pass stick for second position on lap seven. Race leader Pedrosa was ahead with 1.4 seconds ahead of him by then, but Rossi stormed to the rear wheel of the Honda rider with eleven laps to go. He made the victory pass in the Nieto corner to take a lead of 2.7 seconds when crossing the line, taking the championship lead over from Stoner by eleven points in the process.<a href="#cite_note-194">[193]</a> The <a href="/wiki/2009_French_motorcycle_Grand_Prix" title="2009 French motorcycle Grand Prix">French</a> GP turned out to be a disaster for Rossi.

A five-strong lead group of Jorge Lorenzo, <a href="/wiki/Andrea_Dovizioso" title="Andrea Dovizioso">Andrea Dovizioso</a>, Rossi, Dani Pedrosa and Toni Elías were battling for the lead when Elías was the first to fall on lap eight after he clipped a wet white line on the track, a similar mistake also led to Lorenzo's fall and retirement. This left Dovizioso and Rossi to battle it out, but as the rain intensified, so did their lead. Both were ahead with 13 seconds separating them and third place Randy de Puniet. However, it was not meant to be as Rossi spun out of the lead when the rear of his M1 span-out through the Fogarty Esses on lap 20, demoting him to eleventh and leaving Dovizioso almost ten seconds clear of de Puniet. Rossi climbed up to fifth on the last lap, overtaking home hero <a href="/wiki/James_Toseland" title="James Toseland">James Toseland</a> in the final turn, but the race victory went to the Honda of Andrea Dovizioso for the first time.<a href="#cite_note-206">[205]</a> In the <a href="/wiki/2009_Czech_Republic_motorcycle_Grand_Prix" title="2009 Czech Republic motorcycle Grand Prix">Czech Republic</a> round, Rossi took a commanding victory, crossing the line more than 11 seconds ahead of second place Pedrosa.

This was enough for him to clinch his sixth MotoGP, seventh top class and ninth overall title over Jorge Lorenzo who started in the back of the grid and only managed to finish fourth, behind Rossi.

He started from seventh on the grid but moved to fourth on the opening lap and overtook the fading Pedrosa for third on lap three. Rossi then was caught by the Tech 3 Yamaha's of Cal Crutchlow and Andrea Dovizioso who battled with him over the bottom step of the podium from laps 4 to 18 until Crutchlow lost the front end of his M1 in the first corner. He remounted and continued the race as did Dovizioso, who suffered the same fate with four laps to go. After breaking free of both the Tech 3 riders, Rossi slashed the advantage Stoner had built up during the fighting and reeled him in over the remaining ten laps. On the penultimate lap, Rossi tried to overtake Stoner on the fast left-right combination in the beginning of the track but ran wide and Stoner retook the position.

This was Rossi's first winless season since 2012 when he raced with Ducati and his first ever winless season with the Factory Yamaha team. <div class="mw-heading mw-heading5"><h5 id="2019">2019</h5>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Valentino_Rossi&action=edit&section=34" title="Edit section: 2019">edit</a>]</div> <figure class="mw-default-size mw-halign-right" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Valentino_Rossi_leads_the_pack_2019_Phillip_Island.jpeg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/1/19/Valentino_Rossi_leads_the_pack_2019_Phillip_Island.jpeg/220px-Valentino_Rossi_leads_the_pack_2019_Phillip_Island.jpeg" decoding="async" width="220" height="147" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/1/19/Valentino_Rossi_leads_the_pack_2019_Phillip_Island.jpeg/330px-Valentino_Rossi_leads_the_pack_2019_Phillip_Island.jpeg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/1/19/Valentino_Rossi_leads_the_pack_2019_Phillip_Island.jpeg/440px-Valentino_Rossi_leads_the_pack_2019_Phillip_Island.jpeg 2x" data-file-width="5472" data-file-height="3648" /></a><figcaption>Valentino Rossi leads the pack <a href="/wiki/2019_Australian_motorcycle_Grand_Prix" title="2019 Australian motorcycle Grand Prix">2019 Phillip Island</a></figcaption></figure> During the pre-season tests, both Yamaha riders had mixed feelings of the 2019 YZR-M1. There were signs that showed that some of the problems, such as the lack of traction and degradation of the tyres, were less of an issue this year.<a href="#cite_note-377">[376]</a> However, in the Sepang tests, Rossi said he was only "half-happy" with the results, claiming, "some things worked well and we improved our performance, other things from which we expected a lot unfortunately didn't bring us what we need." In the opening round in <a href="/wiki/2019_Qatar_motorcycle_Grand_Prix" title="2019 Qatar motorcycle Grand Prix">Qatar</a>, Rossi lined up fourteenth on the grid on Saturday but stormed through the field to finish in fifth in the line, +0.600 seconds behind race winner Andrea Dovizioso.<a href="#cite_note-378">[377]</a> In the next race in <a href="/wiki/2019_Argentine_motorcycle_Grand_Prix" class="mw-redirect" title="2019 Argentine motorcycle Grand Prix">Argentina</a>, he rode a strong race where he battled with the Ducati of Dovizioso, overtaking him on the last lap to finish second, his first podium since the <a href="/wiki/2018_German_motorcycle_Grand_Prix" title="2018 German motorcycle Grand Prix">2018 German round</a>.<a href="#cite_note-379">[378]</a><a href="#cite_note-380">[379]</a> In the third round in the <a href="/wiki/2019_Motorcycle_Grand_Prix_of_the_Americas" title="2019 Motorcycle Grand Prix of the Americas">Americas</a>, Rossi again finished second after Marc Márquez crashed out of the race and Rossi was overtaken by the Suzuki of <a href="/wiki/%C3%81lex_Rins" title="Álex Rins">Álex Rins</a> with four laps to go. Eventually, Rins crossed the line 0.462 seconds ahead of Rossi to win his first ever MotoGP race.<a href="#cite_note-381">[380]</a> After the good results in Argentina and the U.S., Rossi only managed to finish in sixth and fifth place in <a href="/wiki/2019_Spanish_motorcycle_Grand_Prix" title="2019 Spanish motorcycle Grand Prix">Spain</a> and <a href="/wiki/2019_French_motorcycle_Grand_Prix" title="2019 French motorcycle Grand Prix">France</a>. In the next three rounds, Rossi registered three consecutive retirements – for the first time in his career. In <a href="/wiki/2019_Italian_motorcycle_Grand_Prix" title="2019 Italian motorcycle Grand Prix">Italy</a>, he crashed out after clipping the back of Joan Mir's Suzuki and ran across the gravel in Turn 4. He recovered and tried to regain the lost ground but eventually slid off again in the high-speed Arrabiata 2 corner to register his first DNF since the <a href="/wiki/2017_Japanese_motorcycle_Grand_Prix" title="2017 Japanese motorcycle Grand Prix">2017 Japanese race</a>.<a href="#cite_note-382">[381]</a> In <a href="/wiki/2019_Catalan_motorcycle_Grand_Prix" title="2019 Catalan motorcycle Grand Prix">Catalunya</a>, Rossi – despite qualifying well on Saturday in fifth – was again forced to retire after an error by Jorge Lorenzo on lap 2 led to a freak accident in which Lorenzo, Rossi, teammate Viñales and Andrea Dovizioso were all involved. When Lorenzo tried to dive down the inside of Dovizioso in Turn 10, he lost the bike and collected Dovizioso, which in turn took out Viñales. Rossi was forced to go wide and initially survived a minor hit of Lorenzo's stricken bike, only to hit it again and fall onto the tarmac this time. The bike was damaged as a result and Rossi was unable to continue.<a href="#cite_note-383">[382]</a><a href="#cite_note-384">[383]</a><a href="#cite_note-385">[384]</a> In the <a href="/wiki/2019_Dutch_TT" title="2019 Dutch TT">Netherlands</a>, Rossi registered his third DNF when he crashed and took out <a href="/wiki/Takaaki_Nakagami" title="Takaaki Nakagami">Takaaki Nakagami</a> in Turn 8 on lap 4, the race being won by his teammate Viñales.<a href="#cite_note-386">[385]</a><a href="#cite_note-387">[386]</a> After these disastrous results, the next races went better for him.

In <a href="/wiki/2019_Japanese_motorcycle_Grand_Prix" title="2019 Japanese motorcycle Grand Prix">Japan</a>, Rossi had another retirement. He crashed out of a lowly eleventh place in Turn 1 with four laps to go. This was Rossi's fourth DNF of the season, equalling his <a href="/wiki/1998_Grand_Prix_motorcycle_racing_season" title="1998 Grand Prix motorcycle racing season">1998 season</a> and the highest number of his MotoGP career.<a href="#cite_note-391">[390]</a><a href="#cite_note-392">[391]</a> Rossi ended the season only being able to score points: he finished in eighth place in <a href="/wiki/2019_Australian_motorcycle_Grand_Prix" title="2019 Australian motorcycle Grand Prix">Australia</a>, fourth place in <a href="/wiki/2019_Malaysian_motorcycle_Grand_Prix" title="2019 Malaysian motorcycle Grand Prix">Malaysia</a> – narrowly losing out on the podium but taking the fastest lap of the race – and eighth again in <a href="/wiki/2019_Valencian_Community_motorcycle_Grand_Prix" title="2019 Valencian Community motorcycle Grand Prix">Valencia</a>. Rossi finished seventh in the championship with 174 points, 246 points behind champion Marc Márquez.

Silvano Galbusera, who has been Rossi's crew chief since 2014, will be replaced by David Muñoz for the 2020 season. The reason stated for this change was because of the poor results Rossi obtained during the 2019 season.<a href="#cite_note-393">[392]</a><a href="#cite_note-394">[393]</a><a href="#cite_note-395">[394]</a> Rossi's future in the factory Yamaha team was uncertain after the rather poor results he had obtained the previous year. His initial plan was to wait for a handful of races in 2020 to see how competitive he still is because he has not won a race since 2017 and because of his lackluster 2019 season. However, because of the outbreak of the <a href="/wiki/COVID-19_pandemic" title="COVID-19 pandemic">COVID-19 pandemic</a> and subsequent delay of the start of the season, Rossi did not get the five or six races he hoped for.<a href="#cite_note-auto7-396">[395]</a><a href="#cite_note-397">[396]</a> The team had asked him in the beginning of the year to make a decision regarding his future for reasons dictated by the riders' market, but ended the negotiations after his decision and chose <a href="/wiki/Fabio_Quartararo" title="Fabio Quartararo">Fabio Quartararo</a> to line up beside Viñales for the 2021 season.<a href="#cite_note-auto8-398">[397]</a> This has left Rossi with a vacant seat but Yamaha's Lin Jarvis has already said that the team wants to supply him with a full factory bike and support.<a href="#cite_note-399">[398]</a><a href="#cite_note-400">[399]</a> In July 2020, Rossi said that he is "99% certain" he will ride for the <a href="/wiki/Sepang_Racing_Team" title="Sepang Racing Team">SIC Racing Team</a> even though no contract has been signed yet, and that he'll make the decision either in August or September 2020.<a href="#cite_note-auto9-401">[400]</a> Rossi has also said he wants to continue racing in 2021, but that both he and SIC team boss Razlan Razali had doubts after the poor weekend in <a href="/wiki/2020_Spanish_motorcycle_Grand_Prix" title="2020 Spanish motorcycle Grand Prix">Spain</a>.<a href="#cite_note-auto7-396">[395]</a><a href="#cite_note-auto8-398">[397]</a> However, after Rossi's podium in the second race in <a href="/wiki/2020_Andalusian_motorcycle_Grand_Prix" title="2020 Andalusian motorcycle Grand Prix">Andalucia</a>, these doubts were put to rest.<a href="#cite_note-402">[401]</a> In the pre-season tests, the 2020 Yamaha YZR-M1 had improved considerably compared to the 2019 counterpart. The new engine had fixed most of the deficit that the riders suffered from in 2018 and 2019 and the handling was improved as well thanks to an updated chassis. Both the Factory as well as the SIC satellite riders were happy with the feeling of this year's bike and Rossi said that the bike has "a very good feeling" but that he personally worries he'll struggle with the tyres after around five to six laps and is disappointed the Yamaha is still losing out to the competitors on the straights.<a href="#cite_note-403">[402]</a><a href="#cite_note-404">[403]</a><a href="#cite_note-405">[404]</a> He also commented that the updated Michelin tyres suit the bike, as well as his riding style, a lot more compared to last year.<a href="#cite_note-406">[405]</a> Rossi's first race was supposed to start in <a href="/wiki/2020_Qatar_motorcycle_Grand_Prix" title="2020 Qatar motorcycle Grand Prix">Qatar</a> but was cancelled due to the <a href="/wiki/COVID-19_pandemic" title="COVID-19 pandemic">outbreak of the COVID-19 virus</a>. After a three-month delay, the season finally got underway in <a href="/wiki/2020_Spanish_motorcycle_Grand_Prix" title="2020 Spanish motorcycle Grand Prix">Spain</a>. In this race, Rossi was in tenth position before retiring with technical problems. The race was won by satellite rider Quartararo for the first time in his MotoGP career.<a href="#cite_note-407">[406]</a> In the same venue one week later in <a href="/wiki/2020_Andalusian_motorcycle_Grand_Prix" title="2020 Andalusian motorcycle Grand Prix">Andalucia</a>, the Italian took his first podium since <a href="/wiki/2019_Motorcycle_Grand_Prix_of_the_Americas" title="2019 Motorcycle Grand Prix of the Americas">Austin</a>. After qualifying in a strong fourth on Saturday, Rossi found himself in a fierce battle for second place with teammate Maverick Viñales after multiple riders either crashed out or had technical issues.<a href="#cite_note-408">[407]</a> Eventually, after outbraking himself, he lost second to Viñales but came home third to pick up his 199th podium in his motorcycle racing career.<a href="#cite_note-409">[408]</a><a href="#cite_note-410">[409]</a> In the following two rounds in the <a href="/wiki/2020_Czech_Republic_motorcycle_Grand_Prix" title="2020 Czech Republic motorcycle Grand Prix">Czech Republic</a> and <a href="/wiki/2020_Austrian_motorcycle_Grand_Prix" title="2020 Austrian motorcycle Grand Prix">Austria</a>, he came home in fifth place but only managed to come home ninth in the <a href="/wiki/2020_Styrian_motorcycle_Grand_Prix" title="2020 Styrian motorcycle Grand Prix">Styrian</a> GP. Following a fourth place in the first race in his home Grand Prix in Misano, Rossi had three consecutive retirements, crashing out in the early stages of the second race in Misano and Le Mans, and while challenging Quartararo for a potential race win in Barcelona. On 15 October 2020, he tested positive for COVID-19, which forced him to miss the <a href="/wiki/2020_Aragon_motorcycle_Grand_Prix" title="2020 Aragon motorcycle Grand Prix">Aragon</a> and <a href="/wiki/2020_Teruel_motorcycle_Grand_Prix" title="2020 Teruel motorcycle Grand Prix">Teruel</a> GP's.<a href="#cite_note-411">[410]</a><a href="#cite_note-412">[411]</a><a href="#cite_note-413">[412]</a> Six members of the factory Yamaha team were quarantined as one member had already tested positive earlier in October 2020.<a href="#cite_note-414">[413]</a><a href="#cite_note-415">[414]</a> Having recovered from COVID-19, Rossi raced in the European GP but retired. On 12 November, Rossi tested positive for COVID-19 for a second time.

They often fought hard between each other during the races – with <a href="/wiki/1999_Dutch_TT" title="1999 Dutch TT">1999 Assen</a>, <a href="/wiki/2003_Catalan_motorcycle_Grand_Prix" title="2003 Catalan motorcycle Grand Prix">2003 Catalunya</a> and <a href="/wiki/2006_Italian_motorcycle_Grand_Prix" title="2006 Italian motorcycle Grand Prix">2006 Mugello</a><a href="#cite_note-442">[441]</a><a href="#cite_note-443">[442]</a> as examples – they always maintained a level of fairness on and off the track. Their rivalry died down when Capirossi stopped consistently battling for podiums and eventually retired from MotoGP racing completely in 2011. <div class="mw-heading mw-heading4"><h4 id="Max_Biaggi">Max Biaggi</h4>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Valentino_Rossi&action=edit&section=52" title="Edit section: Max Biaggi">edit</a>]</div> At the early stages of his 500cc career, Max Biaggi was considered Rossi's main rival. Rossi often found himself battling on the track with Capirossi and Biaggi, dubbing them "the three musketeers" by the Italian press. While the rivalry with Capirossi never escalated and the two always were on good terms with each other, the rivalry with Biaggi had been growing since the mid-1990s, even though both didn't race against each other until the 2000 season when Rossi first joined the 500cc class. Before the first race of the 2001 season even started, Rossi and Biaggi had already had a heated argument when Biaggi encountered Rossi at a restaurant in Suzuka and told him to "wash your mouth out before saying my name". At the first round of the season in <a href="/wiki/2001_Japanese_motorcycle_Grand_Prix" title="2001 Japanese motorcycle Grand Prix">Japan</a>, one of the most famous episodes in their rivalry took place when Biaggi seemed to have tried to push Rossi into the dirt at high speed and a few laps later Rossi overtook Biaggi and showed, on live television, his middle finger to him.<a href="#cite_note-444">[443]</a> Their rivalry reached its peak two months later at the <a href="/wiki/2001_Catalan_motorcycle_Grand_Prix" title="2001 Catalan motorcycle Grand Prix">2001 Catalan round</a> when at the end of the 500cc race, Rossi and Biaggi came to blows (involving members of their entourage and circuit employees) in the moments before the podium ceremony. Neither rider admitted that they got into a fist fight, but Biaggi appeared in the post-race press conference with red marks and scratches on his face, which he said "must have been caused by a mosquito bite". Rossi claimed that the incident happened because Biaggi bumped into his manager as both riders prepared to go up to the podium with third-place finisher Loris Capirossi.<a href="#cite_note-445">[444]</a> Two weeks later at the next Grand Prix in <a href="/wiki/2001_Dutch_TT" title="2001 Dutch TT">Assen</a>, Honda organized a press conference to put the events of Barcelona behind them. Rossi and Biaggi talked about the event and shook hands in front of the media, which ended the feud.<a href="#cite_note-446">[445]</a> After that, although they have had run-ins on track over the next couple of seasons, the media frenzy surrounding them and any incidents off-track calmed down, mainly due to Rossi's consecutive World Championships and Biaggi's struggle to find support and a consistent rhythm with his races, even after switching to the Honda Pons and later the Factory Honda team. Some would also consider the <a href="/wiki/2004_South_African_motorcycle_Grand_Prix" title="2004 South African motorcycle Grand Prix">2004 South African round</a> another key point in the rivalry due to the switch Rossi made from the Factory Honda to the Factory Yamaha team, with many believing that Biaggi would have the upper hand for the season due to the advantage the Honda had over its competitors at the time. During the race, Rossi and Biaggi fought hard but eventually, Rossi crossed the line 0.210 seconds ahead of Biaggi, dealing a critical psychological blow to Biaggi, with Rossi calling the race "one of the best of his career".<a href="#cite_note-447">[446]</a><a href="#cite_note-448">[447]</a> In his autobiography What If I'd Never Tried It?, Rossi makes a number of claims about the reasons for his rivalry with Biaggi, and some of the incidents which led to its escalation.

Initially they were quite friendly in the paddock and off – Gibernau partied on occasions with Rossi at the Italian's Ibiza villa – but a souring in their relationship began in the 2004 season and culminated in the "Qatar Incident" that same season when Rossi's team was penalized for "cleaning" his grid position to aid in traction, along with Honda Pons' Max Biaggi, and both riders were subsequently forced to start from the back of the grid.<a href="#cite_note-449">[448]</a><a href="#cite_note-450">[449]</a><a href="#cite_note-451">[450]</a> A number of teams, including Gibernau's Team Gresini and the official Repsol Honda factory team, appealed successfully to race direction for Rossi to be sanctioned. Rossi and his chief engineer, Jeremy Burgess, insisted that they were doing nothing more than what many others had done before when faced with a dirty track and Rossi accused Gibernau of being behind the move to appeal for a sanction, something the Spaniard categorically denied.<a href="#cite_note-452">[451]</a> Rossi accused Gibernau in 2015 that he was "playing a dirty game".<a href="#cite_note-453">[452]</a> Since then the two have not spoken and Rossi seemed to use the incident to apply psychological pressure on Gibernau. Rumours of Rossi having sworn that after the Qatar race, which Gibernau won while Rossi crashed out after rising to 6th position, he would do everything to make sure that Gibernau never stood on the highest step of the podium again. However, Rossi has denied these claims.<a href="#cite_note-454">[453]</a> The rivalry between Rossi and Gibernau climaxed at the <a href="/wiki/2005_Spanish_motorcycle_Grand_Prix" title="2005 Spanish motorcycle Grand Prix">2005 round in Jerez</a>. Rossi started from pole position but Gibernau overtook him on the first lap. On the final lap, Gibernau was in the lead, but Rossi tried to overtake him at the final corner – named the Curva Ducados at the time – with both colliding mid-corner. Gibernau ran wide and would finish second whilst Rossi would win the race.<a href="#cite_note-455">[454]</a> After the incident, Gibernau was furious and refused to comment on the last lap. The Spanish crowd booed Rossi as the Italian national anthem was playing to celebrate his victory.<a href="#cite_note-456">[455]</a> Rossi commented on the incident, stating that his move had been "hard" but also, "motorbike races sometimes are like this."<a href="#cite_note-457">[456]</a> Tensions ended when Gibernau retired from Grand Prix racing after an unsuccessful, injury-blighted 2006 season with Ducati and he never won another race after Qatar, prompting some in the Spanish and Italian motorcycle racing media to explain this fact by way of reference to the "Qatar Curse".<a href="#cite_note-458">[457]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Late_2000s_and_early_2010s:_Stoner_and_Lorenzo">Late 2000s and early 2010s: Stoner and Lorenzo</h3>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Valentino_Rossi&action=edit&section=54" title="Edit section: Late 2000s and early 2010s: Stoner and Lorenzo">edit</a>]</div> <figure class="mw-default-size mw-halign-right" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Casey_Stoner_and_Valentino_Rossi_2008_Donington_Park.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/6/66/Casey_Stoner_and_Valentino_Rossi_2008_Donington_Park.jpg/220px-Casey_Stoner_and_Valentino_Rossi_2008_Donington_Park.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="147" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/6/66/Casey_Stoner_and_Valentino_Rossi_2008_Donington_Park.jpg/330px-Casey_Stoner_and_Valentino_Rossi_2008_Donington_Park.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/6/66/Casey_Stoner_and_Valentino_Rossi_2008_Donington_Park.jpg/440px-Casey_Stoner_and_Valentino_Rossi_2008_Donington_Park.jpg 2x" data-file-width="2299" data-file-height="1533" /></a><figcaption>Stoner and Rossi at the <a href="/wiki/2008_British_motorcycle_Grand_Prix" title="2008 British motorcycle Grand Prix">2008 British Grand Prix</a></figcaption></figure> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading4"><h4 id="Casey_Stoner">Casey Stoner</h4>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Valentino_Rossi&action=edit&section=55" title="Edit section: Casey Stoner">edit</a>]</div> Casey Stoner emerged as a rival for Rossi when he moved from the LCR team in 2006 to the official Factory Ducati team in 2007. Over the course of the season, Rossi and Stoner frequently battled for wins – particularly in <a href="/wiki/2007_Catalan_motorcycle_Grand_Prix" title="2007 Catalan motorcycle Grand Prix">Catalunya</a> and <a href="/wiki/2007_Chinese_motorcycle_Grand_Prix" title="2007 Chinese motorcycle Grand Prix">China</a> – but the young Australian had the better of Rossi in many of the races thanks to his outstanding talent despite the problems with the Ducati, resulting in his claiming of the 2007 MotoGP World Championship title. Stoner's and Rossi's rivalry came to a dramatic climax at the <a href="/wiki/2008_United_States_motorcycle_Grand_Prix" title="2008 United States motorcycle Grand Prix">2008 United States GP</a>. After numerous position changes, Rossi overtook Stoner at the Corkscrew. The move caused Rossi to run into the dirt and broken pavement on the inside of the right turn, and his rejoining the track came close to causing a collision between the two riders. A few laps later, Stoner went into the gravel on the slow entry into turn 11 whilst outbraking himself, almost crashing into Rossi in the process.<a href="#cite_note-459">[458]</a> Stoner picked up his bike to finish second, while Rossi took the win. When Rossi wanted to shake Stoner's hand in the <a href="/wiki/Parc_ferm%C3%A9" title="Parc fermé">parc fermé</a>, he angrily refused. At the press conference, Stoner claimed that some of Rossi's moves were considered "aggressive" but Rossi called it "just racing".<a href="#cite_note-460">[459]</a> After this, Casey Stoner made the comment "I have lost respect for one of the greatest riders in history."<a href="#cite_note-461">[460]</a> For the comment, Stoner apologised to Rossi at the next race.<a href="#cite_note-462">[461]</a> The rivalry cooled down when Rossi won back-to-back titles in 2008 and 2009 whilst Stoner struggled with the Ducati for multiple seasons, suffered from a mystery illness and various crashes – despite still battling hard with Rossi on some occasions. After Rossi moved to the Factory Ducati team and Stoner to the Factory Honda team in 2011, tensions would once again rise at the <a href="/wiki/2011_Spanish_motorcycle_Grand_Prix" title="2011 Spanish motorcycle Grand Prix">2011 Spanish round</a> when Rossi collided with Stoner, causing him to crash out of the race while Rossi got going again and finished fifth. After the race, Rossi went to Stoner to apologise for the incident, who smiled and accepted Rossi's handshake. However, Stoner told Rossi "your ambition outweighs your talent" during the brief exchange, in which he also asked about Rossi's shoulder.<a href="#cite_note-463">[462]</a><a href="#cite_note-464">[463]</a><a href="#cite_note-465">[464]</a> Stoner later apologised for this comment.<a href="#cite_note-466">[465]</a> After this, tensions between both riders would ease once more when Stoner won his 2011 World Championship title whilst Rossi struggled on an underperforming Ducati for the rest of the season.

Initially, relationships were friendly; Rossi won the 2008 title while Lorenzo suffered two serious crashes at <a href="/wiki/2008_Chinese_motorcycle_Grand_Prix" title="2008 Chinese motorcycle Grand Prix">Shanghai</a> and <a href="/wiki/2008_United_States_motorcycle_Grand_Prix" title="2008 United States motorcycle Grand Prix">Laguna Seca</a> which prevented any serious rivalries from ever starting to begin with, Rossi concentrated more on his rivalry with Casey Stoner at the time. In 2009, Rossi and Lorenzo resumed hostilities with Rossi emerging as champion again. Over the course of the season, Rossi defeated Lorenzo in several tight battles – such as <a href="/wiki/2009_Dutch_TT" title="2009 Dutch TT">Assen</a>, <a href="/wiki/2009_German_motorcycle_Grand_Prix" title="2009 German motorcycle Grand Prix">Sachsenring</a>, <a href="/wiki/2009_Valencian_Community_motorcycle_Grand_Prix" title="2009 Valencian Community motorcycle Grand Prix">Valencia</a> and, most memorably, Lorenzo's home race in <a href="/wiki/2009_Catalan_motorcycle_Grand_Prix" title="2009 Catalan motorcycle Grand Prix">Catalunya</a>. Both were battling hard on the Catalan circuit, with Lorenzo taking the lead on the final lap. Rossi tried to overtake him in the usual spots but failed, with many assuming Lorenzo was going to win the race. However, Rossi managed to pass him going into the final corner, where many assumed overtaking was impossible, to take an unlikely victory. In 2010, Lorenzo finally emerged victorious in the championship battle after Rossi first injured his shoulder at a motocross accident two weeks before the <a href="/wiki/2010_Spanish_motorcycle_Grand_Prix" title="2010 Spanish motorcycle Grand Prix">2010 Spanish race</a> and then suffered a displaced compound fracture of his right tibia during a free practice fall at the <a href="/wiki/2010_Italian_motorcycle_Grand_Prix" title="2010 Italian motorcycle Grand Prix">2010 Italian round</a>, which caused him to miss four races. The most dramatic race of the season came at <a href="/wiki/2010_Japanese_motorcycle_Grand_Prix" title="2010 Japanese motorcycle Grand Prix">Motegi</a> when Rossi fought hard with Lorenzo on the final laps of the race for third place, colliding with each other on more than one occasion. Rossi would win the battle, crossing the line in third.<a href="#cite_note-472">[471]</a> After Rossi moved to the Factory Ducati team in 2011, Lorenzo stayed with the Factory Yamaha team and the rivalry cooled down when Rossi underperformed on the Ducati for two seasons while Lorenzo fought for the championship in both years, losing out to Stoner in 2011 but winning his second MotoGP title in 2012. After Rossi returned to Yamaha in 2013, the rivalry resumed, and came to a boiling point in 2015. Rossi was on course to win his tenth overall title but was narrowly ahead of his teammate Lorenzo, who had closed the gap after the summer break. Going into the <a href="/wiki/2015_Malaysian_motorcycle_Grand_Prix" title="2015 Malaysian motorcycle Grand Prix">penultimate round in Malaysia</a>, Rossi and Márquez had a falling out, causing Márquez to fall and Rossi to resume, finishing third.<a href="#cite_note-473">[472]</a> This decision led to the race direction imposing three penalty points to Rossi and demoting him to the back of the grid at the <a href="/wiki/2015_Valencian_Community_motorcycle_Grand_Prix" title="2015 Valencian Community motorcycle Grand Prix">final round in Valencia</a>.<a href="#cite_note-474">[473]</a> This was crucial for Rossi's title chances because Lorenzo started on pole and won the race while he crossed the line in fourth place, handing the title to Lorenzo by just five points. Rossi accused both Márquez and Lorenzo, calling this title "a Spanish stitch-up" and "having Marc Márquez as the bodyguard of Lorenzo is embarrassing."<a href="#cite_note-auto2-475">[474]</a> After this, the relationship between Rossi and Lorenzo became sour, though would ease once more when Lorenzo moved to the Factory Ducati team in 2017 whilst Rossi stayed with the team.<a href="#cite_note-476">[475]</a><a href="#cite_note-477">[476]</a> In the subsequent seasons the rivalry cooled down as Andrea Dovizioso emerged as the main challenger to <a href="/wiki/Marc_M%C3%A1rquez" title="Marc Márquez">Marc Márquez</a> starting with 2017. Rossi only won 1 race since then and Lorenzo 3 all coming in 2018 with Ducati after initially struggling with his new team.<a href="#cite_note-478">[477]</a> The rivalry ended when Lorenzo retired from the sport at the end of the 2019 season. <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Mid_to_late_2010s:_Marc_Márquez">Mid to late 2010s: Marc Márquez</h3>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Valentino_Rossi&action=edit&section=57" title="Edit section: Mid to late 2010s: Marc Márquez">edit</a>]</div> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading4"><h4 id="Marc_Márquez">Marc Márquez</h4>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Valentino_Rossi&action=edit&section=58" title="Edit section: Marc Márquez">edit</a>]</div> <figure class="mw-default-size mw-halign-right" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Marc_M%C3%A1rquez_and_Valentino_Rossi_2018_Losail.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/9/91/Marc_M%C3%A1rquez_and_Valentino_Rossi_2018_Losail.jpg/220px-Marc_M%C3%A1rquez_and_Valentino_Rossi_2018_Losail.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="147" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/9/91/Marc_M%C3%A1rquez_and_Valentino_Rossi_2018_Losail.jpg/330px-Marc_M%C3%A1rquez_and_Valentino_Rossi_2018_Losail.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/9/91/Marc_M%C3%A1rquez_and_Valentino_Rossi_2018_Losail.jpg/440px-Marc_M%C3%A1rquez_and_Valentino_Rossi_2018_Losail.jpg 2x" data-file-width="5184" data-file-height="3456" /></a><figcaption>Rossi and Márquez shaking each other's hand at parc fermé after finishing in second and third place respectively at the <a href="/wiki/2018_Qatar_motorcycle_Grand_Prix" title="2018 Qatar motorcycle Grand Prix">2018 Qatar Grand Prix</a>, one race before their controversial clash in Argentina</figcaption></figure> In more recent times, Rossi has been involved in an, at times, heated rivalry with Spanish rider Marc Márquez. Márquez moved up to the MotoGP category in 2013 and initially the two had a good relationship, with Márquez stating that Rossi had been his childhood idol and that it was a pleasure to battle with him.<a href="#cite_note-479">[478]</a> Their respect for each other took a turn during the 2015 season, starting with a late race collision whilst battling for the lead at the <a href="/wiki/2015_Argentine_motorcycle_Grand_Prix" class="mw-redirect" title="2015 Argentine motorcycle Grand Prix">third round in Argentina</a>. Márquez started from pole and created a gap at the opening stages of the race, but Rossi closed him down and a battle commenced. At turn 5, Márquez made contact with Rossi, which resulted in Márquez's bike hitting Rossi's rear tyre, causing him to fall. Márquez could not rejoin, and as a result, Rossi took his second win of the season.<a href="#cite_note-480">[479]</a> Both riders shrugged it off as a racing incident.<a href="#cite_note-481">[480]</a> A similar incident occurred at <a href="/wiki/2015_Dutch_TT" title="2015 Dutch TT">Assen</a> several months later; Márquez lunged up the inside of Rossi at the final chicane on the final lap, Rossi picked the bike up and rode through the gravel, rejoined the track and won the race. Post-race Márquez seemed fairly unbothered by the incident, although his team did appeal the result.<a href="#cite_note-482">[481]</a> Their relationship broke down completely after the <a href="/wiki/2015_Malaysian_motorcycle_Grand_Prix" title="2015 Malaysian motorcycle Grand Prix">penultimate round in Malaysia</a>. Having had a poor season and being out of championship contention, Márquez won at <a href="/wiki/2015_Australian_motorcycle_Grand_Prix" title="2015 Australian motorcycle Grand Prix">Phillip Island</a> whilst points leader Rossi was only fourth. A week later during the pre-event press conference in Malaysia, Rossi accused Marc of deliberately battling aggressively with him in Australia to cost him time and give an advantage to Rossi's teammate and championship rival Jorge Lorenzo.<a href="#cite_note-483">[482]</a> Tempers reached boiling point in the race, where Márquez ran wide early on, allowing Lorenzo through for second and then had a heated battle with Rossi which lasted for several laps. Coming into turn 14, Rossi ran Márquez to the outside of the corner and they collided at the edge of the track, knocking Márquez out of the race whilst Rossi carried on to finish third.<a href="#cite_note-484">[483]</a> Post-race, Rossi was penalised by three championship points and by starting from the back of the grid for the <a href="/wiki/2015_Valencian_Community_motorcycle_Grand_Prix" title="2015 Valencian Community motorcycle Grand Prix">championship decider in Valencia</a>.<a href="#cite_note-485">[484]</a> In that race, Rossi rode from the back to fourth, but Lorenzo took victory with Márquez second to claim the title by 5 points. Márquez was accused by fans to have deliberately defended Lorenzo for the whole race against his own teammate Dani Pedrosa<a href="#cite_note-486">[485]</a> and Rossi called this championship a "Spanish stitch-up".<a href="#cite_note-auto2-475">[474]</a> Their relationship remained frosty for the beginning of 2016, but the feud came to an end when they shook hands after battling each other in <a href="/wiki/2016_Catalan_motorcycle_Grand_Prix" title="2016 Catalan motorcycle Grand Prix">Barcelona</a> to remember <a href="/wiki/Luis_Salom" title="Luis Salom">Luis Salom</a>, who died after crashing at high speed on the Catalan circuit. However, tempers would again flare two years later, once more in <a href="/wiki/2018_Argentine_motorcycle_Grand_Prix" class="mw-redirect" title="2018 Argentine motorcycle Grand Prix">Argentina</a>. Márquez was given a ride-through penalty after he stalled on the grid and retook his original starting position. Whilst riding back through the field in the late stages, he caught Rossi who was running in fifth place. He attempted to overtake into the final corner, but hit a damp patch and collided with Rossi, pushing him off the track and causing him to fall. Márquez crossed the line in fifth but was penalised a further 30 seconds for the incident. After the race, Marquez walked to Rossi's garage to apologise, but Rossi refused to receive him. Instead, one of Rossi's team asked Marquez to leave.<a href="#cite_note-487">[486]</a> Later, Rossi stated that Márquez "destroyed our sport" with his aggressive riding.<a href="#cite_note-488">[487]</a> He also said, "Marquez needs to get away from me and not look me in the face anymore".<a href="#cite_note-489">[488]</a> After Argentina, the relationship between the two remained quite poor. At the <a href="/wiki/2018_San_Marino_and_Rimini%27s_Coast_motorcycle_Grand_Prix" class="mw-redirect" title="2018 San Marino and Rimini's Coast motorcycle Grand Prix">2018 San Marino race</a>, Rossi refused to shake Márquez's hand and claimed, "We don't need to shake the hand. We don't have any problem." However, one year later at the <a href="/wiki/2019_Argentine_motorcycle_Grand_Prix" class="mw-redirect" title="2019 Argentine motorcycle Grand Prix">2019 Argentine GP</a>, Rossi and Márquez once more shook each other's hands just before the podium ceremony, indicating that tensions between the riders have eased once more.<a href="#cite_note-490">[489]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Nicknames">Nicknames</h2>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Valentino_Rossi&action=edit&section=59" title="Edit section: Nicknames">edit</a>]</div> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:The_Doctor_(4155922729).jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/2/26/The_Doctor_%284155922729%29.jpg/220px-The_Doctor_%284155922729%29.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="170" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/2/26/The_Doctor_%284155922729%29.jpg/330px-The_Doctor_%284155922729%29.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/2/26/The_Doctor_%284155922729%29.jpg/440px-The_Doctor_%284155922729%29.jpg 2x" data-file-width="3522" data-file-height="2718" /></a><figcaption>The Doctor, nickname from Rossi</figcaption></figure> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Valentino_Rossi_1.JPG" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/9/92/Valentino_Rossi_1.JPG/220px-Valentino_Rossi_1.JPG" decoding="async" width="220" height="147" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/9/92/Valentino_Rossi_1.JPG/330px-Valentino_Rossi_1.JPG 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/9/92/Valentino_Rossi_1.JPG/440px-Valentino_Rossi_1.JPG 2x" data-file-width="3872" data-file-height="2592" /></a><figcaption>Rossi at the <a href="/wiki/2011_Portuguese_motorcycle_Grand_Prix" title="2011 Portuguese motorcycle Grand Prix">2011 Portuguese Grand Prix</a></figcaption></figure> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Motor_Show_2007_Gnocca_con_la_moto_di_Valentino.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/b/b9/Motor_Show_2007_Gnocca_con_la_moto_di_Valentino.jpg/220px-Motor_Show_2007_Gnocca_con_la_moto_di_Valentino.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="147" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/b/b9/Motor_Show_2007_Gnocca_con_la_moto_di_Valentino.jpg/330px-Motor_Show_2007_Gnocca_con_la_moto_di_Valentino.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/b/b9/Motor_Show_2007_Gnocca_con_la_moto_di_Valentino.jpg/440px-Motor_Show_2007_Gnocca_con_la_moto_di_Valentino.jpg 2x" data-file-width="2456" data-file-height="1637" /></a><figcaption>Rossi's <a href="/wiki/Yamaha_YZR-M1" title="Yamaha YZR-M1">Yamaha YZR-M1</a> at the 2007 <a href="/wiki/Bologna_Motor_Show" title="Bologna Motor Show">Bologna Motor Show</a></figcaption></figure> Since his early racing days Rossi has had numerous nicknames. In the beginning of his career he was known as "Rossifumi" because he was a big fan of Japanese riders, most notably <a href="/wiki/Norifumi_Abe" title="Norifumi Abe">Norifumi Abe</a>, who made a spectacular debut in the 500cc class as a wildcard rider in <a href="/wiki/1994_Japanese_motorcycle_Grand_Prix" title="1994 Japanese motorcycle Grand Prix">Japan</a>.<a href="#cite_note-auto6-491">[490]</a> Rossi saw the race when he was only 14 years old and became a fan of him, which led to him also wanting to become a grand prix motorcycle racing rider in the future. As such, the nickname is a tribute to him.<a href="#cite_note-492">[491]</a><a href="#cite_note-493">[492]</a><a href="#cite_note-494">[493]</a> Another nickname Rossi had earlier on in his career, albeit not as known or popular, was "Valentinik".<a href="#cite_note-auto6-491">[490]</a> This name appeared around the days when he raced in the 250cc championship. The nickname comes from the comic of <a href="/wiki/Donald_Duck" title="Donald Duck">Donald Duck</a>, in Italian called Paperino. In the comics, he transforms into an alter ego called Super Donald which in Italian translates to Paperinik. This version of Donald Duck sports a mask and a cape and looks just like a super hero, but unlike actual super heroes does not have any luck and wreaks destruction everywhere he goes. However, he also is a funny and likeable character. The nickname is a reference to this Italian superhero, which can also be translated to "Super Valentino".<a href="#cite_note-495">[494]</a><a href="#cite_note-496">[495]</a> Since Rossi started to dominate in the 500cc, later known as MotoGP, "The Doctor" has become the nickname of choice for Rossi. Although not common in English-speaking countries, the nickname is given to those as a sign of respect. Two theories prevail as to why Rossi uses this name. One is that Rossi adopted the nickname upon having earned a degree, which in Italy entitles one to use the title "Doctor". Another, as spoken by Graziano Rossi himself, "The Doctor because, I don't think there is a particular reason, but it's beautiful, and is important, The Doctor. And in Italy, The Doctor is a name you give to someone for respect, it's very important, The Doctor... important."<a href="#cite_note-497">[496]</a> Rossi often jokes, however, that the name arrived because in Italy, Rossi is a common surname for doctors.<a href="#cite_note-498">[497]</a> He has always raced with the number 46 in his motorcycle grand prix career, the number his father had raced with in the first of his three grand prix career wins in 1979, in Yugoslavia, on a 250c <a href="/wiki/Morbidelli" title="Morbidelli">Morbidelli</a>.
