The Doctor shows that not only is he very proficient on the Moto GP circuit but also on the world rally circuit with an 11th place finish in the New Zealand rally as a privateer driver and now a win at the Monza Rally with Team Subaru, against some of the best rally drivers in the world. Rossi has his critics but with his motorcycle racing abilities, the fact that Ferrari would like him to drive F1 for them and now his abilities at on the world rally car circuit I must say that he is one of if not the most talented motor sport race driver of the present time.
