What a start to the MotoGP season! Just like that, "The Doctor" is back. After a regrettable stint at Ducati, naysayers have said that Valentino Rossi, now 35-years-old, is in the twilight of his career. Following the breathtaking battle to the finish against reigning world champion Marc Marquez at Qatar , those naysayers must be feeling very stupid tonight.

“I enjoyed a lot the last lap with Valentino," said the young Marc Marquez. "Last year we had a battle on the last lap and he won it [to finish second] and this year it was another battle on the last lap, which was so great: I hope we can have some more battles in the future."

Without further ado, and for fear of spoiling too much, be sure to watch the amazing battle between Valentino Rossi and Marc Marquez in the video below:
