Valentino Rossi was one of faces that took part in the Track Day that Monster Energy has organized, yesterday at Silverstone. The italian enjoyed the day a lot, considering it was a great idea the way the brad gathered a very special group of riders.
Speaking to brand at the British track, Rossi – who said goodbye to his MotoGP career as a rider at the end of 2021 – showed a great speed, and used a color scheme that have followed him for many years at the category, saying:
– Is fantastic, a great idea from Monster. It’s the best way to make a *PR day because we can ride the bike here in Silverstone, and look, it’s unbelievable [the weather, on a sunny day], a real summer, and it’s a fantastic feeling to share the track with John McGuinness, John Hopkins – we did some laps together – and with all the guys from different championships, and also the Academy [VR46] guys. We always train like this. But being here in Silverstone from Monster is great’.
He also recalled his bond with Monster that started over a decade ago: ‘I think I started with them [Monster Energy] in 2008 or 2009 so a long, long time ago. I feel the oldest here! But it’s also a pleasure because I have seen the evolution over the years. The way they approach everything is a bit like today: calm and trying to have fun together. We’re having a good time’.
