Yes Si he is - I'm not an expert on the sport or the riders but I do know, from TV interviews etc., that he is a modest, unassuming, humorous and very likeable chap.

There you go, Dogduke. Looks good, but does have a 'temporary' feel to it.PS: Blakey - looks like Rossi is out for the rest of the season. This weekend, he went over the 'bars during practice for the Italian GP at 100mph+ and broke his leg. Oh dear! Looks like he'll have to wait til 2011 for his 10th world championship!
