Valentino Rossi busy in Saudi Arabia

It will beà the 1000 km of Jeddah, in its first edition, the last race of the season in the GT World Challenge Europe for Valentino Rossi. The multi-time MotoGp champion, now long active in four-wheel series, will be at the wheel of the BMW M4 GT3 with the unfailing number 46 on the chassis, alternating driving with Maxime Martin and Raffaele Marciello.

For the driver from Tavullia it will be a further opportunity to do well in the more than competitive championship dedicated to GT cars and to conquer that place on the podium that è arrived in the Sprint races (with the icing on the cake of the victory in Race-1 in Misano) but è came only close in the Endurance ones (best result the fourth place in Le Castellet).

In any case, the season drawing to a close has further legitimized the motorcycling champion’s presence among the aces of the four wheels: next year, però commitments will be reduced slightly, as announced by Rossi himself in a recent interview with 'Eurosport'.

"This season I came to sixteen races, a bit too many since I have a small daughter and my partner è pregnant – said the 'Dottore' -. In 2025, therefore, he will doò less races and continue with the GT championship. No racing with Hypercars, he will be'still behind the wheel of a GT3" car.
