Earlier in the season, the race at Motegi was postponed until October 2 because of the earthquake and nuclear leaks which affected Japan in March.

At last weekend's Czech Grand Prix in Brno, Rossi said the FIM's recent report into the region around the Motegi circuit had eased some of his fears about radiation but he admitted that, alongside his mechanics and paddock figures, he still had concerns about the general safety of the area.

"I really don't think I'll be going to Japan," Rossi was quoted in Italian newspaper La Repubblica.

"We are all afraid: myself, my friends, the team. The idea of racing in Japan doesn't seem sensible to me.

"Until today I've kept a low profile about it in the hope that the people at the top in MotoGP would take the right decision, but it didn't happen."

The FIM and MotoGP rights holders Dorna commissioned Italian environmental organisation ARPA to investigate conditions in and around the Motegi region.

On the basis of ARPA's report, Dorna has announced that, subject to there being no further incidents, the race will go ahead as planned on October 2.

Rossi said he was open to the race being switched to another venue in Japan, such as Suzuka, but he could not accept racing at Motegi given the ongoing seismic activity and troubles at the Fukushima nuclear plant.

"Even if the ARPA results on Motegi are correct, there's still an unsafe nuclear plant less than 100 kilometres away and a violent earthquake per week in the area," he said.

"I understand who goes to Japan for humanitarian reasons, but for a motorcycle race no, I can't accept that.

"At this point, with this emergency, we could race on a different track, further away. It's useless to talk about insurance. What do I need insurance for if I get sick or if I end up living a nightmare for 40 years?

"I don't care what the others think, whether they're going or not. I want, in fact I must be able, to decide fully by myself. I imagine we'll have to say yes or no by [the San Marino Grand Prix at] Misano [on September 4]."
