Knowing Rossi's willingness to do whatever it takes, to win and knowing the single-mindedness of racers in general,
coupled with the fact that Rossi despite the clowning for the camera - is a shark at heart, I don't really think the death
of Simoncelli will in any way be a factor in his ability to compete in the following season.

If Rossi is affected mentally, i believe it will be more because of the rash of injuries that he experienced after being incredibly fortunate throughout the first 2/3 of his career. Pile on the death of his close friend, his age { wisdom} his financial situation, that all equates to losing just that razors edge that is the difference between favorite and contender. If HE believes his legacy has taken a hit, you might see something special, he is an egotistical ....... after all.
