so #(removed comment) & #(removed comment) ... you think you can do that shit? there's about 4 g of force in the 0:47 curve. that ain't easy...is one of the most difficult corners in the racing world. but yeah...you're probably better.

Jesus if its not exploding or people getting hurt no one wants to see it , when dic*head ghostrider drives 300kmh between traffic and endangers the life of innocent bystanders people vote it up.

When a champion like Valentino Rossi drives like a maniac and battles like that it gets voted down so fast by some adhd children.

That was epic, as a biker I was grinding my teeth at some points there , the skill and courage to overtake at such speed and with such control is just amazing. Thumbs up from me!

all the haters don't know a shit @ #(removed comment) and #(removed comment) this is like riding a cannonball!

@2 wise words, sir.

@video: awesome fighting

Som will argue but thats how a 5 times world champion (back then) rider with nonhuman skills n patience teaches how to ride the track to an exceptional but kinda newbie (only 1 world championship back then) ducati rider.

This race was epic. I wish Vale comes back winning.

I have a question. At the race start, Valentino is stretching his left leg. How can he change gears? Or was all that done in 1st gear? Cause if it was it was a long ass 1st gear

This truly is epic, I don't know anything about bikes and never rode one but when I see a video like this It gives me shivers, what amazing master class sport bike racing this is!! How Rossi raced against Stoner reminds me how Ayrton Senna use to race, to the limit and taking his opponent out by putting them in a situation where they actually fear for live (which is not often for these crazy guys).

Comments #(removed comment) , #(removed comment) and #(removed comment) , you guys are f**king idiots.

That's what I call "Hard fight" - Even the loser is in glory - Two Thumbs Up

#SilverPT,
You're indeed right with your assumption, it was all done in 1st gear since the gear pedal is on the left side of the bike.
I own a motorbike myself, nothing like the supersport bikes seen here but it still does 0 to 108 KPH in 1st gear and gets from 0 - 100 in 4 seconds. (Just to give you an idea of what the supersportbikes are capable of) Bikes are truly amazing machines and are equally lethal if mistreated or used poorly. I have a great amount of respect to the drivers of the MotoGP! The skill displayed in this vid is just of epic proportions

At the start I definitly saw other bikers, where were they during this battle? Skills for these 2 I suppose

This vid is no better than an earlier vid about motorcycle racing on snotr that got poor reviews,most likely because most people don't know sh!t about motorcycle racing.
