After Alex CrivillĂ© and before Jorge Lorenzo, Sete Gibernau was Spain’s hope to bring home the MotoGP World Championship title and for almost three years he was considered one of the ‘aliens’ even before the term was coined.
Gibernau riding for Gresini’s Telefonica Movistar-Honda team pushed Valentino Rossi hard for the title during the 2003 and 2004 seasons with the rivalry becoming something that would fill newspapers as much as that between Rossi and Max Biaggi.

Rossi’s infamous 2004 Qatar curse and his aggressive final lap overtaking manouever during the 2005 Spanish GP would plague the Spanish rider for the rest of his racing career and he would never win a race again.
In 2006 he switched to Ducati only to be plagued by injuries following the horrific crash during the Barcelona GP and at the end of the season decided to retire.
In 2009 Gibernau decided to make a comeback with the Onde 2000 Grupo Francisco Hernando satellite team run by Angel Nieto, but broke his collarbone during a practice session at Le Mans and two months later the team folded due to financial difficulties.

Gibernau decided that he had enough of racing and retired definitely and now has posted this fantastic book on his website that contains some magnificent public and private photos and even dedicates several pages to his grandfather and his motorcycle company Bultaco.
The book also has an English version and we recommend you check it out, just click on this link.
