VIDEO. Penultimate episode of the series dedicated to Valentino: a voyage into his world and the birth of his alterego

MotoGP, The web series: how Rossi became the Doctor

The web series dedicated to  Rossi has reached the penultimate episode and this edition tells how Valentino became the Doctor. Rossi is not just a rider, but a symbo, a character in which riding talent is combined with a talent for communication.

The colour yellow, the number 46 and the celebratory scenes after a win have become calling cards for a champion who has skilfully created his own world where his fans are easily recognisable. From a small town, Tavullia, with a group of friends who later founded the Fan Club, Valentino set out to conquer the Grand Prix Motorcycle Racing world.

Years later, he has succeeded in his mission and those who were beside him from the beginning are the ones who tell the story. The careful study of the liveries, the gags that were thought up over a beer and much more are in this episode.

And let's not forget the track and the wins, including that unforgetable one: “The most special race was at Welkom in 2004 with Yamaha. That win was the most important one of my career”, Valentino recalls.

To take a trip into his world and find out how he became the Doctor, watch the video below.
