Let's face it: how many of us would be willing to give up our lifelong vacations to go back to work? It's true that riding an official Yamaha M1 in MotoGP is also a pleasure...but as Valentino has said many times, it is when things go well and you get on or at least get close to the podium.
Anyway, time is running out and in a short while we'll know if Vale is still wild enough to get back on his M1 and end the season on a high note.
