Temptation

[DesmoFan]

Did anyone catch the MotoGP question on Temptation last night (not that I watch it, I wasd just pssin thru, honest). In the fast money, the quetsion was:
"How many MotoGP World Championships has Valentino Rossi Won?"

Silence. No takers.

The answer - 7.

My point of view is that the question could be misleading. Rossi has won 7 World Championships, but only the top class (MotoGP). Even then, only 4 of them were in the MotoGP era - 1 as 500cc World Champ.

I guess that they are using MotoGP to include all classes. Just being picky.

7 is the generally accepted number.

But yes, they should have phrased it "how many world motorcycle grand prix championships has valentino rossi won" or similar.

I guess "MotoGP" is just assumed to mean "Motorcycle Grand Prix" now... as opposed to just the motogp class.
