Why is Valentino Rossi named the Doctor?

Since his dominance in 500 cc and MotoGP, Rossi has used the nickname "The Doctor." This has been attributed to his "cold and clinical dismantling of his opponents" as well as his cool and calm composure in racing compared to his frenetic days in 125 cc and 250 cc where his performance was erratic and dangerous, resulting in numerous crashes.

Two theories prevail as to why Rossi is entitled to "The Doctor." One is that Rossi adopted the nickname upon having earned a degree, which in Italy entitles one to use the title "Doctor". Another, as spoken by Graziano himself, "The Doctor because, I don't think there is a particular reason, but it's beautiful, and is important, The Doctor. And in Italy, The Doctor is a name you give to someone for respect, it's very important, The Doctor... important".

Although Valentino often jokes that the name arrived because in Italy, Rossi is a common surname for Doctors. These days Rossi rarely crashes and in fact holds the record for the longest streak of consecutive podiums. From September 8, 2002 to April 18, 2004, he stood on the podium at the end of all 23 races including every race in 2003.

What is faster around a track a Moto GP bike or a Formula 1 car?

In 2004, Mr V Rossi lapped the Sepang circuit in qualifying for the Malaysian Grand Prix in the very quick time of 2:01 (dry), that's 2 mins and 1 sec. In the same year a Mr M Schumacher lapped the same circuit in the death defying time of 1 minute and 33seconds. This is a full 75% of the time a motorcycle takes. Or put another way; a F1 car can do 4 laps in the time a MotoGP cycles can do only 3.

So, that ends that.

Gav.

P.S. Cars are also fast at top speeds, ref Thrust SSC

Cars are faster accelerators, ref drag racing.

Cars are faster round circuits, ref F1 v MotoGP times. Cars are quicker round bends due to a much higher percentage of tyre contact and downforce which adds up to much greater grip factor. Bikes accelerate faster as they have a better power to weight ratio.

MotoGP bikes tend to have higher top end speeds (200mph+) than their F1 counterparts as the F1 cars sacrifice raw speed for greater downforce through corners.

The two greatest factors determining corner speed are grip from tyres (mechanical) and downforce (aerodynamics). Bikes suffer from having curved tyres with relatively low contact area and no meaningful aerodynamic downforce, thus vastly increased lap times.

Incidentally, this places greater emphasis on rider skill.

The f1 car is faster every where corners straights overall track.F1.The f1 cars top speed is 229mph Antônio Pizzonia of BMW WilliamsF1. Motogp.The motogp bikes top speed is 217mph recorded by pedrosa of Honda repol. all this evidence has shown that the f1 car is faster than the motogp bike in all areas.

But also don't forget that if they race on a track with slight turns going back and forth (turns leading into turns) where the car must turn back and forth and the bike can rip a straight line through, the bike will be more than 25% faster.
