Fiat Yamaha's Valentino Rossi says he has a score to settle with the Valencia track at this weekend's MotoGP final round as he lost the 2006 title there when he crashed.

And The Doctor also lost his second place in last year's title chase when he lobbed it and broke his hand at the same track.

“I have had two bad years at Valencia and I have some memories I would like to forget with a good result there this year – I have an account to settle! In 2006 I crashed and lost the championship and then last year I broke my hand and lost second place in the championship," said Rossi.

"It’s not the best track for us but I won there with Yamaha in my first year with them and I would like to do the same again this weekend. It’s been a fantastic season and the win on Sunday in Malaysia was great, but I am not finished yet and I want to reward my team, Yamaha and Bridgestone for a fantastic season with the best possible result on Sunday. Then we can all celebrate with a big party!”
