You may have missed this but Valentino Rossi, who has been chasing a tenth world crown since 2009, was crowned last year. Mission accomplished then for the Doctor? Alas no.

Graeme Warring of WePlay Media, the developers of the game are therefore over the moon, while participating in it can bring great satisfaction. Judge for yourself: as a reward, the winner and his finalists received a Brembo trophy, a limited version Tissot watch, a Nolan X-lite MotoGP helmet and passes for their favorite race...

We understand better in fact what pushed the winner Derek Wisner, originally from California, to play more than 400 hours… A real addiction explained by the person concerned: “ I started racing with Valentino in 2017 and finished fourth.

A tribute paid to Porjate Subphanlie from Indonesia and Laurent Girard from New Caledonia, who accompanied him on the podium and who had respectively opted for Marc Márquez et Jorge Lorenzo.
