Randy Mamola often takes paying fans and celebrities (that has also included Prince Henry) for a few laps on Ducati’s Desmosedici two-seater in the different racing venues of the MotoGP calendar, to give them a taste of the powerful GP racing machine as part of his fund raising work for Riders for Health.
However, during the Catalunya GP weekend that saw a number of riders lose the front end of their machines, Mamola also got caught out by the hot and greasy track at turn 10 and crashed out with his paying pillion.
Mamola was okay, but his guest picked up a few unexpected bruises, but it’s still a one in the lifetime experience.
