MotoGP, Stefania Palma, mother of Valentino Rossi: “Valentino and Marquez are good for MotoGP”

She's a mother who has reason to be upset. She has two sons, and despite their different paternity and their age gap, they both compete in motorcycle Grands Prix. An inevitability for a mother who undoubtedly wanted them to have a more peaceful and less dangerous professional life. But that's how it is. She accompanied her younger brother Luca marini during the presentation of the team Sky VR46. But Valentino was also on his mind…

Un OK who is now not far from turning 40. However, he still shows as much enthusiasm for his work… “ He must only think about the vibrations his bike gives him, without thinking about anything else ". A way of securing it, of not getting lost in rivalries on the track which create danger... And that is of course Marc Marquez which is the subject here: “ Valentino and Marquez are doing good in MotoGP. And sport in general. These are just examples to follow. Rivalries are part of Valentino's history. But he has put what happened in recent years behind him. And as he says himself, they don't have to go out to a restaurant together or become friends. They run together. And that's all ».

She ends on Tutomotoriweb : " Vale is a quiet man, he knows what he has to do. He often laughs about it, but the basis of his success is that he is fully involved. He always studies all aspects. He says it's because he trains with people younger than him? In my opinion, Valentino doesn't need anything. But he likes it. How much longer will he be on the track? He'll decide, so I have no idea. I will never tell him anything other than be careful and do the best ».
