To all in some way making a living on the back of the meteoric success of MGP, be warned this bubble will burst without Vale. I am not endorsing tax evasion, albeit the sport of minimalising liability can be as rewarding as stepping up to the podium, but until the facts are clear and the judgement made YOU the speculators are playing paintball in a lace shop and will find yourselves working twice as hard to fill your columns, your hospitality suites and your circuits with the post Rossi residual.

Hey Vale !
Let your money people take care of the tax allegations - Innocent until proven guilty. Your charisma and sportsmanship will win the day.
Keep doing what you do best and you´ll always be in the money.
Cheers!

I hear the church is even getting involved . Who are they to talk, they didn't exactly accumulate their vast wealth honestly.
Rossi is still No 1 in my book and after all this has blown over he should get a new management team.

So typical for people and the media to jump on the bandwagon and try and ruin a genuinely talented, kind and nice celebrity - why don't they concentrate their efforts on the worthless, talentless no-bodies that seem to keep spinging up - i am sure their back grounds and financial situations deserve far more scrutiny that Rossi's!!!! Stick it to them Vale - your the best and their accusations are banal!!! :)

Surprise, Surprise but at Henri of Stanmore. This comment is highly offensive and patently untrue. Perhaps Henri should realise that a higher visibility of corruption is more likely to suggest more efficient investigation of corruption than a higher overall rate. I can assure you that not everybody in Italy evades taxes!

Andy Carter, Milan, Italy

come on rossi you can do it!!

katherine, west-midlands,

Berlusconi has been doing it for years and managed to get away with it.

Will the Italian press never ever leave him alone? No wonder he lives here...

Leaving the tax question aside.Never rule out Rossi,even on a Yamaha that is obviously down on power,compared to the Ducati,he can run with Stoner,a brilliant young rider,on most circuits.It would be fun to see them on the same machinery,then who would come out on top?

Peter, Baguio, Philippines

Surprise, surprise, but everybody in Italy evade taxes!!! Italy is the most corrupted country in Europe.

Henri, Stanmore, U K

"This year he has found no answer to the power of Ducati and the brilliance of Stoner"

The former is correct but not the latter. Have you been watching the same races as myself this season?

Rossi is as good as he as ever been and mostly better than Stoner, but let down by the straight line speed disadvantage.
