After his terrible accident which brought him close to death in Supermotard on the Latina circuit, Max Biaggi reserved his first exclusive interview with the Italian celebrity weekly Chi on newsstands since Wednesday July 19.

In itself, it's already revealing: goodbye to motorbikes and hello to public life, with the help of his partner Bianca Atzei, a professional singer.

Afterwards, have the Corsair's remarks already passed into the realm of sensationalism thanks to the mill of this sort of transalpine press? It's up to you to form your own opinion, but, as far as the bike is concerned, we sincerely doubt that the Moto3 Grand Prix project of the Italian champion, initially based on Mahindra, can survive the departure of the Indian manufacturer at the end of the season.

A page seems to be turning for Valentino Rossi's ex-adversary... and we can't blame him!

Max Biaggi : “After the accident, I woke up in the hospital: I had terrible pain all over my body. I heard the voice of Professor Giuseppe Cardillo tell me: 'Biaggi, I will be sincere, there is a 20% chance of surviving. We will operate on you immediately.'
At that moment a light appeared to me: I saw myself as a child again, with my mother Olga. I had a green coat. Then with my father Piero and the first motorcycle. Then the first kick of a ball. Then I wanted to stop this “journey” because I understood that I was moving away from life. I said to myself: this must not end.

To my girlfriend, I owe a lot. She stayed up for fifteen hours straight to assist me. Words are not enough, gestures speak better. I don't believe in marriage, but I want to have a son with her. Or better, maybe two. Life gave me a second chance, and I must do everything possible to thank it.

I'm stopping with motorcycles, forever. I'll be the coach. »

Good luck in your new life, champion!
