Inside the mind of Valentino Rossi

One of the UK's leading graphologists analyses Valentino Rossi handwriting from a note he wrote to his team and offers remarkable insight

'In a professional sense he expects to be respected and valued, though he will not always be the chief, but an influential 'Indian' working on behalf of the 'top man'. Even so his standing and worth should be seen as high and though he gives, he expects to receive in like manner, even if he has to manipulate to make it happen.

'Over all he appears charming, ebullient and self-confident and enjoys a high profile, hence the powerful signature (his image to the world).  He is highly competitive therefore and seeks success and prestige as evidence of his value and achievments.  This means that he has to maintain his image through constant awareness of his position within his world, as a result of which (seen in some of the close letter spacing), he can be tense and keyed up when under pressure.

However, when encouraging others to folow his passion, he can patient and encouraging, leading them to sharpen their expertise.  He will show good will and enthusuiasm when in an optimistic mood and respond readily to fun and warmth in others. Social rather than solitary, though he does like and need his own space, his pracitcality is partnered with a perfectionist streak and he has high expectations of those who he considers are part of his world.'

Many thanks to Elaine Quigley for her input. If you want your handwriting analysed, please contact Elaine using the link.

They say bikers are a cynical bunch. I suppose you need to have your handwriting analysed  to have any belief in this sort of thing.

There were plenty of cynics in the office 'til we got some of our handwriting analysed. It's an interesting article, whether you believe what you read or not.

This article spread over three pages doesn't actually tell us anything new.

P.S. now you're all online how about starting to have the articles on one page ?

I thought it was interesting to have my impressions of Rossi confirmed by someone else tbh.

I guess you can't take it as FACT but it's pretty amazing that she's got so close to the personality that we have kinda grown to know through the media without even knowing who her subject was. Kudos..

That's super interesting. My partner and I had our handwriting studied by a british institute member and they were alarmingly accurate.

I don't know Vale, but on theparts we see of him it's very accurate.

"Therefore,  in his professional role he wants to go out and make his mark, identify his territory and not be available on the personal level,..."
 This backs up the rumours that Rossi runs around the circuit in the middle of the night pissing on corners to mark his territory, and make his rivals lose the front.  I believe he changes his form to half wolf when hes at this.    Shapeshifters are all around us !!  he he

Till the shapeshifters bit I was with you. How can these racers, obviously including VR, reconcile the fact that they missed normal and traditional growing up procedure? How many of your mates were being coached on PR when they were 14? How many, in fact, could write a £5000 cheque without a problem when they were 14?

They 'aint shapeshifters, but aliens maybe....

QUESTION

WHY HAS HE NEVER HAD A GOOD LOOKING WOMAN AT HIS SIDE ? .

ONLY  THAT GUY AND WHO IS HE ?

sounds like like a load of `Barnum statements` to me!?! Would also explain why it worked on the staff as well. Ask Derren Brown to analyse his handwriting, should make an interesting read also.

HA ha ha, ho ho ho, loooollll, lllllmmmmfffaaaaooo. rrrrooooottttffffllll. Wait i am getting a premonition, he is moving to ducati because his favorite colour is red and he is motivated by a wheel barrow load of cash, he seeks a new challenge in order to stuff some blokes spanish face into the Land he has claimed. He seeks a team that will bend over backwards, sideways and down the river just to get the best ITALIAN rider and team combo for the record books against giant ogres from Japan.

Man i am good !
