In winter, an athlete always has a hundred ideas and plans, then as always everything comes to nothing as time speeds by.
I’d love to take loads of holidays, play loads of different sports from mine, have loads of new experiences, but then it takes a huge amount of time and concentration to organise a new […]
The 2008 season is over. It’s been a learning year due to disappointments, but I really can’t complain because in June I’d predicted the end of a life stage. I seriously risked giving up during the bad times in my career and throwing it all in. Then one day something clicked in my head and […]

Marco, third fastest in the wet conditions this morning, ran into problems again this afternoon and his confidence took a further blow when he ran off track.

There was little in the way of excitement for the riders, who […]
The city of Valencia plays host to the final Grand Prix of the 2008 MotoGP season this Sunday, with the World Championship ‘podium’ already decided. After seventeen rounds of eighteen around the globe, Valentino Rossi, Casey Stoner and Dani Pedrosa are already assured of the top three positions in this year’s edition of motorcycle racing’s […]
Marco paid the price for an unproductive weekend working on his set-up and the Italian could finish no higher than sixteenth today.
MARCO (Ducati Marlboro Team) 16th
“There are only negatives to take out of a race like that. We went back to the settings we used yesterday afternoon but I didn’t have the […]
