Valentino Rossi vs Marc Marquez - The Rivalry | MotoGP

Toprak and JR are going the same way.

I don't know but I just watched the GP of Philip Island (2015) and Marquez, in the last lap, just closed the gap of over 0.6 s within a few corners after battling for the second place for a few corners. I think it was in his hands, I mean, you just don't gain that much that quickly. He definitely had higher pace.

Great vedio though 👌

I wonder what would happen if you put Rossi, Biaggi, Stroner and Marquez in an escape room together?

You mean when Rossi got out Rossi’d, Marquez stopped rossi mind games in its tracks

Absolutely 2 of the very best and it is a shame it was tainted ,I would say six of one and half a dozen of the other kudos to both exceptional riders 👍

Lorenzo didn’t need “protection”. It’s kinda sad that 2015 is remembered for VR vs MM when Lorenzo won the title

Marc is a dirty racer and he rides over the limit consistently.

MotoGP peaked at that time

Rossi has the ethics of Trump and the personality of Guy Fieri. Big Evil Clown Energy.

ROSSI=GOAT!!!!!

No mention of Valencia 2015????

I love Rossi but MM93 brought him back to earth, got in his head. The things Rossi used to do to others. They are luckily back on good terms.

Rossi said over and over again that Marc scared him whenever he's in the circuit, Marc always ruin the race, Marc this Marc that.....

Before Rossi retired, he clashed with several riders: Gibernau, Biaggi, Stoner with his known quote, his mate Lorenzo & Vinales and Marquez.
Marquez never clash with his mate in their garage, always go with smooth. After Rossi retired, Marc never clash with another riders at least until now. So, with that data, who's the bad one? hmnnnnnn it's easy to find, remember this quote and you'll find the answer: "your ambition outweighs your talent......"

A lot can be said about number 46. I've been a huge Valentino fan since his debut in gp. I've followed GP since the days of Lawson, Rainey, Schwants, Doohan etc. He's by far the greatest motorcycle rider I've seen live on a track or on TV. Titles in 125cc, 250cc, 500cc, motogp1000cc, motogp 800cc, the absolute king of racing, when race day came. Remember 1997, 1999, 2001, 2002, 2003, 2004, 2005, 2008, 2009... it was a real monster on the track!!! The guy who made you get up from your chair during all the races of the season.
Stoner was an incredible rider, one of the most talented, one of my favorites by far, but he only won 2 titles on 800cc motogp. Lorenzo was a real metronome on the track when he could slip ahead and show others his impeccable riding technique. Marques... what can we say about the Spaniard except that he is one of the historic geniuses of the category, the kind of driver who scares everyone else. 125cc, Moto2, MotoGP 1000cc. His 2014 and 2019 seasons will go down in history forever.

Unfortunately for both of them, 2015 ruined everything. Largely Valentino's fault from my point of view. He managed the end of the season like a big dung, when the title was for him, and panicked like in 2006. He never accepted being beaten by a faster rider than him and tried to come up with lame excuses that only convinced him and his more blind fans.

I've since lost any passion I had for the Italian driver, although once in a while he still made me get up in the middle of the night to watch the Malaysian Grand Prix or whatever. New talented riders have since arrived, Quartararo, Bastianini, Bagnaia and others and I think Valentino took too many years to retire. 2018 was his last valid year.

Regardless, the future is full of great riders. All I hope is that DORNA looks a little bit at aerodynamics and tightens up the regulations a bit to make it easier for riders to overtake again. It's all well and good to impose equal rules at the technical level if in the end you can no longer win if you no longer start from the first two rows.

Love MotoGP!

What a silly video. No details, no recap. Someone who hasn't been following MotoGP for 10 years would have no idea what just happened.

Its unsportsmanlike conduct if you risk other riders life for gain

Great video, thanks for sharing. Coming back to watching MotoGp after many years absence, the dominance of 46 fanbase is still incredible and thus influences any 'discussion' around this matter. I love both of these guys and most of other riders too, so it is horrible to see the tribal divide associated with sports like football.
The sad fact is that this is an evolutionary trate of mamals and evident across most aspects of life.
Thanks again for providing what appears to be a well balanced article on their history.

man who is this guy , another marquez fan

In 2013 Motogp raced at Laguna Seca then next, raced at COTA? Didn't know that

My respect Both are Legends GOAT

"""HONDA HRC""" WAS THE DRIVING FORCE BEHIND STOPPING ROSSI FROM WINNING!!!!!
STOP AND THINK ABOUT IT!!

HRC Is a BITTER ORGANIZATION ANYWAY!

HRC JAPAN BLOCKED HRC AMERICA FROM ALLOWING Fernando Alonso from driving an Andretti Auto sport indycar for the Indy 500 because Honda supplied the powerplant....
And it was their 💩💩💩 that blew up when he was winning his madian INDY 500 and complete garbage for the McLaren F1 team...Not the other way around lol...

HONDA ARE A TERRIBLE BUNCH OF characters

This is just your opinion and point of view @crashnetmotogp. And If all these doesnt matter then why did you make the video?
I mean, okay some things make sence but i have a different question. Why didnt marc marquez win the race in Valencia 2015 and let lorenzo win? Why didnt marc marquez win the race or go for higher positions as he had the place, in Malaysia 2015? Just wondering....

I dunno, you act impartial, but your opinion is pretty clear that Marquez preventing Rossi's title didn't make sense.

Why would past GP riders disagree?

This is a great video, but I wish it showed the incidents which happened that you're talking about. It's 10/10 commentary and documentation, but 0/10 for video reference work. I'd love to see video clips showing the incidents which you are talking about. Outside of this, you're are absolutely brilliant, and I appreciate the efforts put into this educational video.

He's obsessed by Yellow King.
Everything VR does, he try to do the same.
Real shinning..poor guy..can't live it's own life..

I am huge anti fan of VR-46 and a lot of his so-called "fans". Can't stand him, his logo, his racing team and some of his fans. Indeed I would pay money to develop a VR filter that would prevent me from seeing another story/vid about him.

Marc surpassed him. Too bad for Valentino.

This is literaly the first piece of content on this matter that is unbiased.

Would’ve loved to have the actual incidents explained. Like this is a really well produced video but I’ve learned virtually nothing about the beef. All I know is that “something happened in 2015”
