While most of Italy is demanding that Ducati cut Valentino Rossi loose following his interview with Sportmediaset – which isn’t as simple as it seems – others are threatening to lynch him if he has the nerve to show up at the WDW at Misano in June, Rossi has announced that he’ll be taking part in the first round of the Blancpain Endurance Series at Monza this upcoming weekend.
The last time the Italian partecipated in a car endurance race was at the 6 Hours of Vallelunga in 2009 behind the wheel of a Kessel Racing team prepared Ferrari F430 Scuderia GT3 (picture above) where he finished third in the GT class and 11th overall, while this time he’ll be driving a Ferrari 458 Italia always prepared by Kessel in the Pro-Am Cup class.
Once again Rossi will be joined by his side kick Alessio ‘Uccio’ Salucci who will be his co-driver for the three hour race.
