#TheGrandFinale 

Those handshakes speaks louder than words. All Hail the King.

I almost cried watching this. I had tears when he passed 21 riders and was riding that lonely 4th position knowing he would lose his championship but he never gave up, rode like a champion and proved a rider needs heart to be a champion not speed and the no.of championship points. Thanks Valentino! #forever46! #forzavale!

Rossi is a real champion

Nobody has ever done what this man, this legend, has done for this sport. Valentino Rossi is the one. There are things in the sport that have even more value than a championship, and you can see this when people are screaming the name of the one who have lost, riders are shacking the hand and showing respect to the one who have lost. Because the one who have lost in this case is the one who won the love, who won the honor, who won the respect... the one who’s name means MotoGP. Valentino Rossi 💛

Even if you don't win another championship in the future - you will always be the champion in our hearts! The greatest motorcycle racer ever. Thanks Vale. #Forever46

The day you became more than a champion. Much respect for you

The moment when Hayden pulled up alongside Rossi at 3:08 got so much more meaningful a few years later :( After Hayden's death, Rossi recaptured this moment: "But the best memory I have of him is when he came to shake my hand after the unfortunate race in Valencia in 2015, on the lap of honour. For him it was a goodbye to MotoGP™, and I had just lost the World Championship. His look of support from inside his helmet is one of the few positive memories I have from that day. Forza Nicky, we're all with you."

Rossi is for Italy what Senna was for Brazil! The Legend.

AMAZING how Lin Jarvis, the Yamaha Motor Racing principal was waiting for Rossi in his pit instead of waiting for Lorenzo outside. LOL!!!

I think those handshakes were beyond showing respect and made Rossi to know they are with him, but the riders felt this race was something special. They had the chance to experience as a legend ride as he gives all what he got and made him the best rider ever and they took a part in it. If we recall those glory memories when The Doctor fought agains those magnificent rider back in the day and those battles what he won were all relived in Valencia. This race was more than a battle for a title. This race was a statement and proof, Valentino Rossi is the the rider who personalize everything what motorcycle race about and what a rider should be to reach the highest level in racing. And if we watch this race, without any preconceptions and not to make any theory about conspiracies, makes it all clear. To compete as Rossi did in his age after 16 years of top class racing is amazing. To judge him negatively or not respect his acheivements is not else but jealousy by people who doesn't feel themself wise, confident and persistant enough to be as successful as Valentino. It is nothing about how good rider Jorge Lorenzo is. Jorge got everything to be champion as he proved it already with 5 titles. But without any sarcasm. The other champions on the grid can't be compared to Valentino Rossi yet. Not because he won 9 chamionship, not because he has more than 100 trophies, but because how he did it. He had good days when wins came easy like it did for any great young rider. He had bad days, when everything went wrong. He was really loved and hated over more than a decade. Then he stood up again and won the greatest title again. He defeated uncertainty what built up by people who tought Rossi is not good enough to be champion again. I hope he feel the same about it as I do and this race gave him some extra strenght to fight for his crown next year again, as he does since 1996. I respect Jorge Lorenzo and Marc Marquez too. I do not want them to fail or wish their title would be Rossi's. But what I saw in Valencia, even I never lost my hope in Valentino, was mesmerizing. To see someone fight until the last second even everybody in the world knows he can't win without a miracle and he does not give up whatever happens is unbelieveable. Maybe in 10-15 years time we think about Marc or Jorge in the same way. But that's insanely far away.

The first thing he did after crossing the line:Waving to his fans.Only one of the things that make him so special:Even at the point of utter defeat, he cares for his fans.What a wonderfull man he is and what a true champion.The living Legend Valentino Rossi.

Vale is Motogp...Motogp is Vale. Period.

Still I cry every time I watch this lap, he deserved the title, I'm a Valentino's fan since 1996 and this was the biggest disaster for the Motogp history

The Real World Champion MotoGP 2015 is VALENTINO ROSSI 46 !

I cried when watching this video, In my opinion, Rossi is the winner. Lorenzo have won the title, but Rossi was the champions. The real champions.

championship may be Lorenzo's, but hearts around the world are all still with Rossi.

This video makes it very apparent that Rossi was the man everyone was going for that day. Pedrosa, Crutchlow and Hayden (especially) all giving him congrats like they were on the same team, and the entire paddock cheering him on!

after Pedrosa handshake Rossi... ALL HAIL PEDROSA! THE MIGHTY MAN WHOS NOT JOIN THE DARK SIDE (Marquez and Lorenzo)

0:49 Pol Espargaro 1:09 Andrea Dovizioso 1:23 Dani Pedrosa 1:30 Cal Crutchlow 1:36 Danilo Petrucci 2:08 Aleix Espargaro 2:14 Alvaro Bautista 2:21 Stefan Bradl 2:24 Yonny Hernandez 2:52 Scott Redding 3:02 Nicky Hayden 3:16 Loris Baz 3:24 Toni Elias 3:30 Jack Miller 4:57 Hector Barbera

One day history will remember a great champion and a great man... The best motorcycle rider that came to Earth...and his name is Valentino Rossi. No matter if Marquez will win 15 titles... He will never be remembered as the best

Funny how he gets a handshake or a thumbs up from pretty much every rider and Lorenzo only gets one, from a fellow Spaniard.

pedrosa's a good guy too

watched this again in 2020, i'm still crying everytime i watch this video..how every rider saluted him, how literaly everyone in the paddock cheered on him. Vale was robbed in 2015, he's the people champion.

I came back here after seeing Rossi's back in Valencia witnessing his student Pecco wins the title. It still gives me goosebump.

Everybody loves Rossi....... except Maequez and Lorenzo of course.

This video says a lot. The Legend! Valentino Rossi 46!

THE MASTER..THE DOCTOR...THE LEGEND VALENTINO ROSSI...

At the 2015 closing station, I saw Lorenzo win the world championship at his home stadium in Spain, but the cheers in the entire stands were not for Lorenzo, but for Rossi! The Spanish audience cheered for the Italian Rossi, but Lorenzo won the award. The stage was booed, and almost all the drivers came to greet Rossi when they were going back around the field after the game. When Rossi returned to the PIT, it was obvious in the video that all the staff of other factory teams also came out to say hello to Rossi. Rossi applauded and cheered. In my heart, just like others, the 2015 world champion is Rossi.

Just one more proof that the whole paddock and the riders knew who the real champion is. I mean , all the riders were congratulating him (okay not all..Marquez)..and then the welcoming. Lorenzo can only dream about it. It will never happen.

I like how he said goodbye to Nicky Hayden!

These images will remain forever in the History of Motorcycling and Motorsport. And They'll forever be the reason why being the Greatest Of All Time isn't a "numbers" issue. In the speech for receiving his career Academy Awards, the Legendary Cary Grant said "Probably no greater honor can come to any man than the respect of his colleagues." . I Think that it's enough, Vale is and will forever be the Greatest Motorcycling Rider Of All Time, a MASTER and a LEGEND in the Same League of Jordan, Senna, Maradona, Phelps, Thorpe, Lewis, Alì, Bolt. And Marquez will forever be a great rider, but a very little man.

Here I come again, to remember how amazing Rossi is.

The amount of riders congratulating Rossi says it all, both for him as a person and for the sport. They knew what was going on and what happened, just like we did. Look how many riders congratulated Lorenzo - 1. Espagaro, that was it. People that say Rossi has lost respect are deluded. He's gained respect, from both riders and fans. Lorenzo and more so Marquez have lost any respect they had, just a handful of fans remain.

So Jorge Lorenzo, aged 28, at the peak of his powers, with the general consensus being that he had more speed than anyone else this season, did not lead the championship until the chequered flag fell for the final time and took it by a margin of just 5 points. His opponent, 8 years his senior, who has seen a few generations of racers come and go during his stay in the premier class, finished ahead of him in 2014, and almost got the title this year, despite his supposed lack of 'outright pace' as so many asserted. The more I reflect on this season, the more I realize what a titanic effort it was for Valentino to do this at the grand old age of 36, this being a sport which chews up and spits out the very best in their early 30s. The 10th title, sadly, wasn't meant to be (we can list the reasons why) but what has been was pretty fricking legendary! #ForzaVale

Basta guardare come lo applaudono e lo rispettino tutti i PILOTI e tutti i TEAM che lo aspettano ai box, per farvi capire chi è il Re del motociclismo. I premi si possono vincere il rispetto lo si conquista, e per alcuni è più importante.... ONORE A TE VALE!!!!!!!

10 times world champion

This is the true Hero, Legend & Icon of MotoGP and the people's Champion. Forza Vale!!! VR46 2016.

5 years ago! I'm still without word! How is possible that no one did something versus Marquez? No decision at all. Valentino you'll always be the winner, the last 3 races completely decided by Marquez. Never happened before in Motorsports

2015 Valentino Rossi people's champ.

Valentino Rossi is a real 2015 motogp world champion

Layaknya film Cars . Yang terbaik,juara tidak harus memiliki gelar. Kamu juara di hati semua orang. Vale 💛

gli ultimi 6,35 minuti di un anno meraviglioso... un video che resterà per sempre a testimoniare di quell'uomo e campione al quale honda e dorna negarono la possibilità di vincere il decimo mondiale a 36 anni compiuti.... grazie lo stesso Vale, il decimo te lo riconosciamo noi tifosi di moto come riconosciamo l'uomo e il campione senza limiti o nazionalità e l'esempio per i prossimi sportivi di qualsiasi genere.

I wonder how many handshakes and greetings Marquez got....

Rossi lost this Championship but he became more than a Legend on that day ... probably more than if he won

Da tifoso di Vale voglio dire grazie a: Pol Espargaro, Dovizioso, Pedrosa, Crutchlow, Petrucci, Alexis Espargaro, Bautista, Bradl, Hernandez, Redding, Hayden, Baz e Miller per aver fatto i complimenti a Vale a fine gara e anche a tutti i membri dei team che si sono complimentati con Vale in pit lane. Grazie a tutti. Il prossimo anno ci riproveremo.

I like how Cal Crutchlow came at Rossi. You van see the disapointment in his eyes. #Vale46

I Never Forget it.

Still have chills watching this. His love for the fans and the crowd and their love for him.. the respect and handshakes from every single driver (well except two)..the people that waited outside and inside Vales pit.. How many mixed emotions he must have felt but he was still smiling, waving to people, greeting everyone and held himself like a true champ and the legend that he is..

Dang, that made me sad. It was great seeing all the respect from everyone! Riders, workers and fans on the track, all the other teams' pit crews. MotoGP has made such a giant mistake. Vale is greater than the sport itself.

Valentino Rossí is REAL and PEOPLE CHAMPION

There is no greater champion in the history of MotoGP than Valentino Rossi and in this moment of sorrow there where fellow racers giving him more hand shakes than what they did to Lorenzo What does that say All hail the great Valentino Rossi Grazie Vale forever the greatest 🏍🇮🇹🏍🇮🇹🏍🇮🇹🏍🇮🇹🏍🇮🇹🏍🇮🇹🏍🇮🇹🏍

if a fourth place is celebrated more than winning a championship you know ho has won all the hearts of motorsport! #46

*Beatiful lap of Rossi !*

3:13 I'm from 2021 n I cried bcs of this.

rossi is legend

Real 2015 champion. No more words.

MotoGp 2015 "real" world champion.

That's how a lap of honour from the living legend of MotoGP looks like...

i always came here everytime when i miss this moment FORZA 46 LEGEND

Vale ci mancherai nn sarà più bello giradare le gare senza te mi ritiro anche io da tifoso e bikers✌

The greatest rider ever! After two difficult years in Ducati he was able to rise again at the age of 36. What doesn't kill you makes you stronger. Hope next season he kicks everybody's a**

rossi is real champion .lorenzo what is?

"If you do not compete for a gap that exists,you are no longer a racing driver"AYRTON SENNA. Marquez you are not longer a racingdriver!

Thank you Rossi for entertaining our childhood (1997- 2009) :') (Sry bad English)

all dislikes must be from Lorenzo

Respect to all riders except 99 and 93

VR 46 is motogp biggest asset. I couldn't wondering what motogp look like without him. Everyone has fall in love with VR 46. No matter if they are Italiano or Spaniard and other else. Everyone has show great respect for VR 46.

Salute the Master, salute the Doctor, salute Valentino Rossi!

I don't know who decided that the championship must end like this, but I think it has gone off the other way around. They made him greater than ever. Go Valentino!

this is the best lap

9+1 Simply the GOAT. No one will be like him.

12 11 21 , watch this video I remember this race and how VR become headline in many newspaper "The people champion"

The best there has ever been.

This is the real Champion.

Holy shit. EVERYONE on track is congratulating Rossi. Everyone respects and love Valentino. True legend of the sport

Watching this after a year still left a bitter taste in my mouth. I did not lose hope during his ducati years and definitely not gonna lose it now. I am with him until he decided to hang his leathers for good. Forza Vale!

Damn it.. this guy is such a legend! Everyone should be thanking to him because he is the one who got attention from the people all over the world and because of him MotoGP and all the teams got sponsors. Because of him MotoGP is on a such a high level of interest all over the world! Respect Vale! You`re a true inspiration for all the riders around the world!

3:00 the first time i saw this i always believe this is a very emotional moment for this 2 legend. Two years later, Rossi using this picture on his Instagram as tribute to Nicky. R.I.P Nicky Hayden

Always come here every year to see how great valentino was , and today is his last race in his carrer thankyou for everything vale you're the real GOAT

This is what a man respected and loved by everyone looks like. Respect is earned. Thaks for the joy!

My heart beat faster and I hold my breath everytime Rossi overtakes the other rider. When he reach 4th and the gap become wider and wider...it's very sad and I almost cried to see him finish 4th and lost the title. But it doesn't matter because you win our hearts, people's heart, for us you are the real champion, the real hero. Keep fighting Rossi, we have faith in you. #forzaVale #forever46

If Marco Sic still in there, I'm pretty sure he dont let the Spaniards did it to Vale

Senza parole un mito che resterà sempre anche se non vincerà mai il decimo mondiale non conta perché è come se l'avesse vinto per tutto quello che ha fatto resterà sempre un mito per tutti, dovrebbe sparire dalla faccia di questa terra chi ti critica. Semplicemente unico!!

salute with pedrosa and hayden

Tears fill my eyes and i just can't help it.....

Love that sound, riding slowly like this. Awesome footage, my alltime favourite rider.

this is how the legend finish a season without champion title but he still gets respect! that knowing he would lose but he still continue the race. what a legend!

I Still watch in 2019..

you are the wolrd chapion..!! FORZA VALEEEEEEEEE

FFS i almost shed a tear watching that.All hail the GOAT.

You can really see how much respect the other teams' mechanic has for Vale. They knew he's the real champion.

VR the real king of moto gp always love u bro

I am a fan of this man for over a decade now. This season was a total disappointment not from Vale but from the sport itself. 2015 Championship will forever be regarded as farce, well, we have to thank MM for that. Hope in 2016, Vale will feel as motivated as this year. MotoGP will feel empty once he retires. Lets just savor each FPs, race, interview of him until the inevitable comes.Forever Champ!

Here you can see in around 1:23-1:24 Rossi refused to look at a Honda behind. At first he though it's Marquez then he realised its Pedrosa xD.

The acts of Marquez from the end of the 2015 season will never be forgotten in the hearts of the true fans of the sport. A true champion never clashes with other riders currently fighting for the championship. A true champion always does his best to win the race or to win the championship and does not interfere like that in other riders fightings. Philip Island 2015, Malaysia 2015 a Valencia 2015 were a terrible evidence of that. VR is the true champion of the 2015 season. Real shame! Many champions did things, that weren't right, like for example Schumacher in 94, 97, Alonso in Hungary 2007, Hamilton in Abu Dhabi 2016, Rossi in Jerez 2005 etc. etc., but always under the immese presure during the fight for the victory. Marquez wasn't fighting for the victory at the end of the 2015 season.

I was very touched to see this video... 😢😢😢 I saw it in 2015 and he did something great without the help of any rider..... 👏👏👏 99 indeed won the title, but seeing this video can be seen who the real champion .... 🍾🍾🍾 You are always the best Rossi... ♥️♥️♥️ Salute The Doctor ... 🥼 Salute The Master ... 🏍️ Salute Valentino Rossi !!!! 🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆 + 🏆 (2020) !!!!!

Valentino Rossi....YOU WILL BE THE LEGEND OF MOTO GP.....FOREVER!!!!!!! GO 46!!!!!

If not World Champion he is our champion the peoples CHAMPION ❤️

this maybe, ideally, the situation that will happen at the end of 2021 season. ThankYou Legend!

People from other paddocks waving and cheering him what an amazing career
