MotoGP: Rossi wants fun at Sepang

MotoGP World Champion in buoyant mood for this weekend's Malaysian GP

Tweet
Posted: 13 October 2008
by Visordown News

NEWLY CROWNED MotoGP World Champion Valentino Rossi has said he wants to have fun at this weekend's Malaysian Grand Prix in Sepang.

The Italian has already completed a lot of testing at the 5.5km circuit and goes to Malaysia with valuable track data for this weekend's race. He said:

“I am looking forward to going to Malaysia because we have done quite a bit of testing there with Bridgestone so we have a lot of data – not something we have had for most of this season. I was quite strong there in the winter and I hope it’s the same again this time, especially since we know a lot more about the tyres now. We have two races left and I would really like to try to win them both, plus I also want to keep up Yamaha’s excellent podium record this season. I love Malaysia and I have had some great races there in the past, plus it generally suits our bike very well so with any luck we can look forward to a fun weekend. That said, we know that Casey will be very strong again as well as others so it will no doubt be a good battle!”
