Fiat Yamaha  Team rider Valentino Rossi sent the following message today from his  home in Italy. The reigning World-Champion is currently convalescing  after breaking his leg at the Italian MotoGP round three week's ago.
| "Three weeks have passed since  the accident and two since I was discharged from hospital, and I am very  happy about how my recuperation is progressing. I am feeling a lot  better and I'm starting to live a semi-normal life again, although for a  completely ‘normal' life I will have to wait until I'm back on my bike!  I am walking with crutches and since a few days I've been able to put  my foot to the floor. Honestly, I didn't expect to feel this good just a  few weeks after the incident, and I mean both physically and in my  ‘spirit.' | 
| "The rehabilitation is  continuing as usual, both sitting in the hyperbaric chamber and with  some exercises in the gym. Unfortunately my shoulder is still giving me  some pain but I am working on the muscles to reduce the pain a bit. If  the rehabilitation proceeds without trouble and if everything continues  in this way, then my objective is to return at the Czech Grand Prix in  Brno. | 
"I have started to leave the house and my good  friends haven't left me on my own for even a minute, although I'm not  used to spending so much time in Tavullia! I miss my bike, my team and  the paddock a lot and this ‘new' sensation is pushing me to get better  as quickly as possible.                     
 "I'll speak to you, but more importantly see you,  soon.                     
 Ciao, Valentino Rossi."
