‘The Greatest of All-Time’ is the first of five episodes from the Valentino Rossi: The Doctor Series and examines the appeal and reach of arguably the fastest and most popular motorcycle racer in the history of Grand Prix and MotoGP.
Opinions and insight are provided by Valentino himself plus Colin Edwards as well as the Italian’s inner circle and from the close-knit community back in his hometown of Tavullia.
What makes an icon? What causes people to utter the words ‘the greatest’ when it comes to the inescapable and irrepressible ‘46’? This first chapter attempts to dive into these questions and more with exclusive and special opinions on Valentino’s career, character and two-decade global impact and burgeoning legacy. Episode 2 - Racing Mugello will be released at the end of May 2016.
The Series will continue by visiting his Ranch, business empire and focus on the man behind the myth.
The second episode in the ‘Valentino Rossi: The Doctor Series’ ventures to one of the most intense, emotional and important Grands Prix on the MotoGP slate: Mugello.
In the spectacular Tuscan hills lies the fast and sweeping racetrack at which Rossi has enjoyed and endured some of the finest and most difficult moments of his career.
The 5km asphalt has been home to seven consecutive MotoGP wins and is also an annual festival of colour, noise and ‘fandom-mania’ as Valentino stands at the centre of the whirlwind for three days.
‘Racing Mugello’ follows the man under the brightest and most pressurised of spotlights with insight and comments from his inner circle and group. What is the Grand Premio D’Italia really like for an icon such as The Doctor and the fans that flock to see him? This is Mugello.
