Former MotoGp chief technician Ramon Forcada: “For years Valentino Rossi was the number one strategist.”

Former MotoGp chief technician Ramon Forcada in an interview with Manuel Pecino’s Youtube channel spoke about Valentino Rossi and the Doctor’s golden years, “Valentino was the number one strategist for years, and we saw how many he destroyed mentally during his career. He was an expert in psychological warfare until he found riders smarter than him.”

“He hasn’t won since 2009, because others have come along and fought on the same ground as him,” Forcada continued. The new generation grew up knowing what Rossi’s real strength was. Dani Pedrosa, Casey Stoner, Jorge Lorenzo, Andrea Dovizioso were telling each other ‘this guy is there to be beaten, not for anything else.’ They were the first ones to figure it out and they are the ones who have succeeded.”
