You know those people who can drive or ride anything with wheels and a steering wheel or handlebar? You could put them on a sofa with wheels and they could race it, probably even win. Valentino Rossi is one of those people.

This weekend, at the 2014 Monza Rally Show, Rossi proved once again that he's just as good on four wheels as he is on two by finishing second in an event he’s won three times already, in ’06, ’07, and ‘12. This weekend, only ex-Formula 1 driver Robert Kubica was better than Rossi and his Ford Fiesta WRC.

If you didn't already believe that Rossi was something special in anything with a motor, then check out the video above, where Rossi puts an almost impossible pass on another driver earlier in the event.

Yes, he really is that good. Probably on a couch with wheels, too.
