Rossi Challenges Alonso to a Duel!!!

**aff-man** · 16th March 2006, 12:50

Sounds like Alonso hasn't ridden a proper bike ever...

As said before probably won't let him race cause he'll kill himself on a GPbike.

Rossi's probably doesn't have that problem cause his management knows that if they give him shit he can race for whoever he wants basically in in F1 or GP

.

Doubt he'll like F1 only being able to pass someone a handfull of time in the season though

Software doesn't really weigh anything...
The engine management system is already there, the rest is just software really.
Back-torque limiting might still be a conventional slipper clutch, but the weight-gain is minimal compared to the price of NOT having it!

rally car!

Y'alls is one eyed, I think it'd be close, but Alonso would need some SERIOUS ridin' time.

That's the point.

Rossi/Kimi would be the better duel,Kimi rides bikes and ain't arfraid of nothing.Personaly I think he's a better driver than Alonso (22nd to 3rd in the last race) just unbelievably unlucky.You may think he has no personality - but I think he has the most personality of all the F1 drivers...he's not very corporate....

I'd love to see it myself! Rossi would cream Alonso! Alonso is quick and knows a thing or two about driving F1 cars, and would probably pip Rossi in a fair duel, but there's only a select few riders in the world who can go wheel to wheel with Rossi on a GP bike! He's a freak! As for the rally cars, it wouldn't really be an issue who was faster overall. I agree though, Alonso would probably be banned fom having a go on a GP bike. Far too dangerous for his mangaement team I'd say.

I think that Alonso is demonstrating just how inexperienced he is at dealing with media. Unfortunately lots of talent and lack of years tends to result in a runnaway mouth.
