Don't you look at my accountant.
He's the only one I've got.
There is a bit where he talks about Marc - what he said was (a little paraphrased), "For me, it is not about how much he achieve, it is how much it cost to take it back. Because when you have the crown and this go away [mentions talented riders like pecco and martin who have won in the mean time], and you come from difficult years to take it back, you know, what is yours (this is what I am thinking he thinks), you come and take the cup, then man, there is no one more deserving than you ... I am really honest when I am talking about people, and when someone is that good, you have to recognise - I hope one day to have the heart of what he achieved - I dont respect him more for what what he achieved, but even more for what he suffered to take it back"
Powerful stuff
