This weekend, it will be the San Marino Grand Prix on the track of Misano, but it will also be, and perhaps especially for the public, the place where Valentino will put on his show. The Doctor is in fact playing at home for this thirteenth round of a championship where he is holding on to remain second overall without much hope of being able to eye on first position. It is therefore not yet this year that Vale will have its tenth crown. A subject on which he spoke…
Valentino Rossi is on its 23rdrd Grand Prix season, and, now 39 years old, he seems inexhaustible. “ I still like running a lot and have a great passion. I believe that if you live a healthy lifestyle and work out, being 39 is not a big disadvantage. I want to continue doing this sport as long as I am strong enough to fight for the podium and victory » explains Vale in comments relayed by InSella.it.
He specifies : " This has been my life since I was 16 and it's always the same: run, come home, rest for two or three days and start preparing for the next races. This has always been my life, I don't know how to do anything else. I'm afraid I'll have too much free time ". And to vegetate is to ramble, even if, in full activity, the man of Tavullia lives with two great disappointments… “ I had unforgettable moments, many victories, but I have two regrets: the 2006 and 2015 championships, when I came to the last fight of the title race and lost. If it were possible, I would change that "
But there were also satisfactions! “ I remember my first title in 2004 with Yamaha, then the second in 2008 because it came after two years of failure and it was the last with Bridgestone. There is also the one from 2001, because it was the last year of the 500 and it was special. It was my last chance. If I had to choose one, in particular, I would say the one from 2004 because no one expected me to win with Yamaha. I thought so, but honestly not the first year. I thought I needed a year of experience ».
