VALENTINO ROSSI has given the clearest indication yet that he is going to swap from two wheels to four over the next few years.

Speaking to La Gazetta dello Sport, Rossi was talking about his upcoming appearance in next months Rally of Wales and the Italian Rally he is also due to take part in.

He said: "Yes, I like rallies very much. I think it is possible when I finish with bikes. I have another two years, after that we will see."

Two years left with Yamaha then... well, from the sounds of it it'll be WRC for the eight times world champ.
