Now published as a mass-market paperback, the third edition of this best-selling book will include full analysis of the sensational 2004 season - surely Rossi's greatest triumph yet. Despite quitting the dominant Honda factory at the end of 2003 for the unfancied Yamaha outfit, Valentino proved that he could still quell the opposition - and how. Beating off the Honda hordes, the popular Italian left his former bosses with seriously red faces. Rossi's achievements on the Yamaha stunned even the sport's most cynical observers, convincing them that here is indeed the greatest bike rider ever.
A former motorcycle racer and Isle of Man TT winner, Mat Oxley has been writing about bike racing for more than two decades and is the author of Haynes' acclaimed biography of Mick Doohan. He lives in London.
The 2004 season-opening South African GP where Rossi became the first rider in the sport's 55-year history to win back-to-back races with different makes of motorcycle.; At his home GP he risked all, fighting it out with rivals at 210mph in dangerous damp conditions to win yet another unforgettable victory.; Brilliant credentials - six World Championships and more than 60 Grands Prix by the age of 24.; How he won the 125, 250 and 500 titles, then dominated the 200mph MotoGP class.; Dazzling charisma that has made him one of the world's best-known sports stars.; Written in close co-operation with Rossi and his family, the updated and expanded third edition will have mass-market appeal.
