“Weird” Valentino Rossi habit pointed out by another MotoGP legend
Randy Mamola, a former MotoGP legend, remembered one of Valentino Rossi’s quirkiest traits involving various pre-race rituals such as touching his ears, knees, and adjusting his underpants before races.
Mamola noted that Rossi’s rituals, like holding the foot peg before getting on the bike, were captured on camera by Dorna every weekend due to Rossi’s superstitions.
Rossi’s unique behaviors, including his pre-race routines, were amusing to Mamola, who also recalled the eccentric superstitions of another rider, Mick Grant.
Grant’s superstition involved asking someone else to pick up his dropped glove, which Mamola found amusing and often thought of when he faced a similar situation.
