According to observers, Rossi's performance in MotoGP 2021 is like a disgrace

In recent years, Valentino Rossi's performance on the bike is no longer brilliant. MotoGP 2021 might be said to be the last stage for the famous racer with number 46 in his career as a professional racer. So far, even one of the Petronas Yamaha SRT team riders, Valentino Rossi, has actually appeared less than optimal in the 14 series of races in the 2021 season. Of course, this condition does not only occur in the 2021 season, considering that The Doctor's performance has actually been seen declining since the 2019 MotoGP.

Talking about his worst condition, we are actually used to concluding that in MotoGP 2021 Rossi performed very badly, he never contributed a single podium for the Petronas Yamaha SRT team in MotoGP 2021. In fact, when he was still defending Monster Energy Yamaha in 2020, Rossi had at least contributed one podium.

Seeing Valentino Rossi's condition in the Petronas Yamaha SRT team like this, clearly attracted the attention of MotoGP observer Carlo Pernat. Pernat did not even hesitate to say that Rossi was like a "disgrace" for the Yamaha satellite team. "Betting on Valentino Rossi in the 2021 season is a mistake (for the Petronas Yamaha SRT team)," he said, quoted from Motosan.es.

According to the veteran observer, the Petronas Yamaha SRT team seemed to sacrifice their philosophy in order to recruit The Doctor, whose performance has seen a decline.

In fact, this Yamaha satellite team usually recruits promising young riders and skyrockets them so that they can then be ready to appear in the prestigious MotoGP event.

"For example in the 2019 season. The Petronas Yamaha SRT team made a very good decision by recruiting Fabio Quartararo and Franco Morbidelli," said Pernat.

Pernat added, he was confused by the management of the Petronas Yamaha SRT team when he decided to recruit Valentino Rossi.

Plus now the Yamaha satellite team is recruiting Andrea Dovizioso who is clearly not a young rider for MotoGP 2022.

"Indeed, the result of recruiting Dovizioso for the 2022 season is still a question mark. But what I am confused about, how can a team with a bike that is friendly to rookie riders attract senior riders?" he concluded.
