The Italian champion was interviewed after the event and as usual when Rossi drives cars the questions go towards what will he be doing in the future:“Well it depends on a lot of things.
We will see what will happen in the future.
For now I have some big question marks, because I still have not decided what I will do in the coming years.
I chose the winter to do some car racing because I’ve decided that I when I quit motorcycle racing I’m going to race cars, but racing bikes remains my real job, then after this break I’ll go back to being a motorcycle racer”
