Special day for Valentino Rossi: he blows out 44 candles

Today he enjoys four-wheeling and being a father

It’s a special day for Valentino Rossi, who turns 44 today. Born in Urbino on Feb. 16, 1979, he is considered one of the most iconic icons of motorcycling. Credit to the nine world titles he has won. The only one in the history of two wheels who has won the title in four different classes (125, 250, 500 and MotoGP). A legend of Italian sport.

Since the day of his retirement (in 2021), MotoGP has lost a great deal of its appeal. The Dottore was one of the most beloved riders in the circus, always followed by thousands of fans. He is still sorely missed. In the meantime, Valentino Rossi enjoys four wheels, his new passion, and in the meantime, he enjoys the new “activity” of dad, which steals quite a bit of his time.
