The iconic Italian leaves a long shadow across the sport that h༺e dominated on track, and off track, for so lonꦆg.

168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Marc Marquez, Rossi’s old enemy, can match his tally of seven premier class championships i꧅f he wins this season but the search 🍌for a true star who infiltrates mainstream culture is ongoing.

Carmelo Ezpeleta, the CEO of Dorna, admitted to that reigning champion 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Francesco Bagnaia is not yet ཧfamous: “I think not yet, but I hope you know him.”

How can Bagnaia and his fellow riders of his generation turn success int🥂o s❀tardom?

“You need peac🌠e of mind. Tranquillity🍃. You have to settle down,” Ezpeleta said. 

“We come from a time when the one who dominated was Va꧟lentino, who was an extraordinary rider and a magnificent personality. 

“If you review the history of the ﷽championship, when I started it was said that the Americans were going to end and that there would be nothing left, but a certain Mick Doohan appeared. 

“Then it was said🐼 that when Doohan was fi🐽nished there would be nothing to do, and there were two years in which Alex Crivillé and Kenny Roberts Jr. won, who were not super [well-known]. 

“But then Rossi appeared, who raced against guys like 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Dani Pedrosa, 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Casey Stoner and 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Jorge Lorenzo, who strangꦏely have retired before Valentino [despite] being younger than him. 

“And then Marc arrives, who is a great hero𒈔, but latel𒁏y he has been injured and we are at an impasse.”

The loss of Rossi, MotoG🌱P’s most famous son, at the end of 2021 was likened to Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo no longer being at the top 🎃of the football world.

“The loss of❀ Messi and Ronaldo has nothing to do 🥀with what has happened to us,” Ezpeleta said. 

“For me, Messi is a genius and the best in🥂 history, and Ronaldo ༺is a fantastic scorer, but something different from Messi. 

“We have many very good guys, who have race꧅d for a very short time and fight a lot, and they will come out. 

“We have to give them the [support] and everything else they need, and that's u✃p to us, so that t🔯his new generation becomes more popular again. 

“168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Fabio Quartararo is a very [well-known] guy in France, which is a big country, he is very prominent, with four covers of [national ne🌟wspaper] L'Equipe.”

Do the likes of Ba𒊎gnaia👍 and Quartararo need to beat Marquez in a proper title battle to explode into mainstream culture?

“Obviously, it gives an added value to the victory to who wins🍬,” Ezpeleta  said. “If, as I hope, Marq💖uez gets good and the bike goes well, he will be causing trouble for sure this year.”
