MotoGP World Champion rates Lorenzo, but wishes he'd cleared off to Honda
VALENTINO ROSSI has said that the next Rossi is likely to be Jorge Lorenzo, NOT former MotoGP World Champion Casey Stoner.
The Italian has also ruffled a few feathers in the Yamaha camp by saying the he wanted Lorenzo to jump ship and go to Honda.
Rossi said: “A new Valentino could not be Stoner, because when he wins there is not the enthusiasm. It can come like that though from Lorenzo. Frankly I hoped that he would leave the Yamaha for Honda, because a more interesting championship would have been made. Instead if he stays with Yamaha it will still make good racing between two pilots: the management is not simple, but the inner rivalry improves the product.”

This is just Rossi messing with Lorenzo's head. He's already gotto him on the track, now he's trying to make Lorenzo feel better about himself so he continues the self doubt on track.
The guy is a genius at destroying his opposition
