The skill level in motorcycle racing, in this case Moto GP, is unbelievable when compared to F1. I have to bow to them.

If you remember MS got into a lower level of motorcycle racing and just could not cut it, yet he won seven F1 championships.

Only one racer made it in both classes and that was John Surtees who was a seven-time motorcycle GP champion who then won a championship in F1.

Valentino Rossi has nine motorcycle championships and I just saw him earlier this year at Mount Panorama in Bathurst, Oz coming in sixth in a BMW M4 GT3. What a track by the way.
