At age 36, Valentino Rossi is supposedly washed up, past his prime, and no longer able to compete. Apparently the G.O.A.T. (greatest of all time) didn't get the memo and decided to win the 2015 season opener MotoGP race in Qatar.

This was his 83rd premier class win over second place Andrea Dovizioso—beginning his 20th season racing Grand Prix with style. If you haven't watched the race you need to. It's a showcase of riding. On one side, there's the gracefulness of the Yamaha ridden aggressively by Rossi, and on the other, there's the brute power and braking of the Ducati that Dovi rode. Even knowing the winner, you will find yourself on the edge of your seat until the last lap.

Ducati returns to glory.
