If all goes well, I will ride my YZR-M1 on Friday, and that’s where I can really judge my condition. I will do my best to compete in the race Sunday".

let’s remember that Valentino Rossi no longer won at Mugello after his fantastic seven-game winning streak from 2002 to 2008. His best result since is a third place in 2009, 2014 and 2015 (read our retrospectives below), while the 2010 edition was marred by his serious injury to the leg and that the 2016 race ended in a frustrating retirement due to engine failure of his Yamaha (above) … Hopefully a happier outcome this weekend for the # 46, acclaimed like a god in the Tuscan stands !
