羅西再次抨擊電子系統在MotoGP日益增加的影響力，
重申他的害怕車手的技術價值在兩輪賽事最高殿堂裡
所扮演的關鍵性越來越少。
Valentino Rossi has again slammed the growing
influence of electronics in MotoGP, renewing
his fears rider skill is playing less and less
of a pivotal role in the premier class.
羅西高分貝批評加諸在車手身上的電子輔助系統，並
認為它們現在變的太重要，不同於以往車手只能孤獨
的使用他的技術彌補不足之處，技術重要性已經減少
許多，因為使用新科技系統的浪潮席捲整個MotoGP。
Rossi has been highly critical of rider aids
and believes they are now too important and the
difference a rider can make using his talent
alone has been crucially reduced with a wave
of new technology sweeping into MotoGP.
羅西要求減少電子系統使用在MotoGP賽車上的數量，
甚至是禁止，像是電子循跡控制系統變的如此複雜，
讓舊世代車手難以理解熟練它進而順利進行比賽，因
為這麼多非人性化的科技加在賽車上。
The Fiat Yamaha rider has called for a ban or
reduction on the amount of electronics used in
MotoGP, with systems like traction control
becoming so sophisticated that older generation
riders are finding it harder to master riding with
so much non-human input.
羅西說：
”Stoner已做了令人驚嘆的事情，而沒有人懷疑他是
個優秀車手。
但是他是循跡控制系統世代的第一把交椅，因為他使
用循跡系統的方式是令人驚嘆。
Valentino Rossi said:
“Casey (Stoner) has done an amazing job and
without doubt he is a great rider.
But he is the first of the traction control
generation because the way he uses traction
control is amazing.
”對於像我這樣的舊世代車手，還有Melandri及
Capirossi，我們對於這樣的系統有很多問題要去了解。
你必須有很大的勇氣使用電子系統。
”有時候很難有足夠的信心相信電子系統，
因為電子系統不是人。
“For old generation riders like me, Marco
Melandri and Loris Capirossi we have a lot
of problems to understand.
You have to be brave to use the systems.
“It is difficult sometimes to have confidence
in a system because that system is not human.
”身為一個舊世代的車手，當工程師走近你身邊對你說，
你可以在時速150公里的彎道中央裡油門盡情全開，
說的倒是容易，做起來可是很難。
“As an old generation rider, when the engineers
come to you and say you can open the throttle
full when you’re knee is on the ground at 150ks
in the middle of the corner, it is easy to say
this from the pits.
”新舊世代對於騎乘賽車的觀念是不同的，這就是舊世代
的主要問題所在。
Stoner對電子系統深信不疑，我們則不，”
羅西進一步做結論。
“It is different on the bike and that is the
main problem for the old generation guys.
Casey believes in the system and we don’t,”
added Rossi.
