Valentino Rossi and Sete Gibernau might battle again in 2009. The season will see Valentino riding his Fiat Yamaha MotoGP bike, while Sete will ride the Ducati Onde 2000 bike.

Rossi and Gibernau had some great battles during the 2004 season and at the Spanish MotoGP in 2005, in Jerez, one battle ended at the dramatic final corner with Sete finishing on the gravel.

Rossi is happy with the return and is looking forward to racing again against Sete. He said: “I am sorry I didn’t see Sete on the track when we tested in Valencia because I think it’s quite a big emotion for us to be together on the track again after all our great battles. I am happy to see him back. We spoke a little bit in the summer when he was thinking about coming back and I’m looking forward to racing him again.”

Rossi will defend his world title and said his biggest treat will come from Casey Stoner, Dani Pedrosa and his team mate Jorge Lorenzo.
