For the nine-time MotoGP World
Champion, Valentino Rossi:

“I was a big fan of Lewis’ before but now I am even
more. We had a fantastic day where the two top
classes of motorsports not only met but worked
together. I felt like a real F1 driver for a day. I didn’t
want the day to end. “I also rode the YZR-M1 on
track with Lewis. It was a proud moment for the
team to share our passion with him. Technically,
Valencia is a hard track and today was windy so at
one point I thought it would be difficult for Lewis
to continue, but he was brilliant on the bike and his
position on the M1 was great. I think he had loads of
fun which is the main thing.”
