化為六月息

-----【譯文初稿】-----

 
今年29歲、義大利籍的摩托車界賽車好手瓦倫蒂諾‧羅西(Valentino Rossi)，正穩健的邁向他第六座MotoGP賽事的總冠軍頭銜。在最近三站比賽中贏得勝利的羅西，目前以75分的積分差距，領先世界冠軍凱西‧史東爾(Casey Stoner)。此外，羅西在八月三十一日舉辦於義大利米薩諾賽道(Misano)的比賽中獲勝，因而追平了擁有〝車神〞封號的亞高斯蒂尼(Giacomo Agostini)所締下的分站68站冠軍的最高保持紀錄。

羅西在威尼斯電影節接受訪問時說：「亞高斯蒂尼非常棒。如果有人在五年前對我說我能像亞高斯蒂尼一樣贏得68個分站冠軍，我當時會說這是不可能的。不過在過去的一年來，我的比賽表現不錯，贏得不少勝利，也許有機會達到亞高斯蒂尼的成就，而我現在必須努力做的更好一些。」(shows 10)

羅西對於能夠受邀參加電影節深感榮幸，並希望能與義大利籍的導演阿德裏亞諾‧塞蘭塔諾(Adriano Celentano)見上一面。羅西還表示在從賽車生涯退休後，可能有興趣轉行到電影界來，他說：「我不清楚耶，不過拍攝電影需要時間與演技，而我現在沒有充裕的時間，也許等我退休後吧」。(shows 12)

INTRO: Rossi targets silver screen career.  With another world title in his sights, Valentino Rossi says he may consider a career in the movies after he retires.


STORY: With just five races left, Valentino Rossi is well on his way to winning his sixth MotoGP title. Having won the last three races, the 29-year-old Italian leads Australian defending champion Casey Stoner(凱西‧史東爾) by 75 points. The next Grand Prix is scheduled for Indianapolis on September 14.

Only fellow-Italian Giacomo Agostini, with eight 500cc world championship titles, has a better record than Rossi in the top flight. Agostini is regarded by many as the greatest-ever Grand Prix rider. But Rossi now looks certain to overhaul Agostini's record of 68 premier-class victories after equalling the mark with a win at his home circuit in Misano on Sunday (August 31).

After retirement, Agostini became team manager for the Yamaha and later the Cagiva Grand Prix racing teams. Speaking at the Venice film festival on Thursday (September 4) Rossi said he never expected to get anywhere near to matching Agostini's record - "Yes, he's (Agostini) fantastic. If someone had said to me five years ago you are right for 68 victories like Agostini's - I would have said impossible. But I did a great job in the last year, a lot of victories and maybe arrive with Giacomo. And now have to try to make a little bit better." (shows 10)

Movie fan Rossi said he was flattered to have been invited to the film festival and was hoping to meet iconic Italian entertainer Adriano Celentano.The charismatic MotoGP star said he might be interested in a movie career of his own, but not until after retiring from the track: "I don't know, but to make a movie you need time and you need to be able to make the actor, you know. Now I don't have enough time, maybe when I finish my career." (shows 12)
