Valentino Rossi "still really quick, really fast"
John McGuinness and Valentino Rossi were just two of the motorcycle racing legends from different series brought together by a recent Monster Energy Legends Day.
The Isle of Man TT icon and the MotoGP superstar were on track at Silverstone, joined by a who’s who of other past and current riders. "This little fella from Italy came steaming past me on the back-straight," McGuinness joked to TNT Sports."He dragged me round to do the fastest lap I've ever done at Silverstone."I was more interested in watching him. He's the best in the world."
Sylvain Guintoli added: “John McGuinness got his fastest-ever lap around Silverstone following Rossi! How good is that."“He comes into the garage, puts the bike on the stand, old school. “John just being John, said ‘that’s my fastest-ever time around here, following Valentino, he’s smooth! It looks effortless’.Guintoli said about Rossi, who is now 45: “He still rides. We have done test sessions with BMW, with Valentino there.Suzi Perry added: “He’s doing his car stuff but he said to me: ‘Nothing beats being on a bike’.”The unlikely friendship between Rossi and McGuinness is one of mutual admiration which has lasted years.
