What do you give your loving mom for a present? Flowers, chocolates, a Hermes scarf, a Prada handbag, nah, you give her Ducati Monster 696.
That’s what Valentino Rossi decided to give his mom Stefania Palma who has always wanted one, “I’ve dreamed of it all my life and now finally I have it,” said Stefy, as everyone in the MotoGP paddock calls her.
“I told him over the years that if you ever go to Ducati, then you’ve got to get me a Ducati Monster.
”The model naturally is the Rossi MotoGP Replica Monster 696 with Rossi’s yellow race #46 on the side of the gas tank .
“I used to have a Yamaha scooter,” said Rossi’s mom “but riding a bike with gears is completely a different emotion .
.
I’ve already gone from Tavullia to San Giovanni in Marignano, I’d like to try the Panoramica (anyone who has read Valentino Rossi’s autobiography knows all about that special road), but for a woman of my age.
“Rossi’s mom also denied that she’s going to become a grandmother, “We talked about this rumor at Mugello and wondered how these stories surface, since it’s not true, “ and regarding Valentino’s problems with the Ducati, she said, “I told Valentino that I think that life isn’t always like a movie, and to get what you desire for you have to fight for it: he and Ducati are very attentive regarding the problems.
