Valentino Rossi hints again at WSBK switch

Valentino Rossi is a fan of World Superbike racing and in many interviews talks about how much he enjoys watching WSBK racing (he’s always present at the Misano round), how much more exciting it is compared to MotoGP, and the idea of the Superbike duel in the desert against Troy Bayliss in 2008, was the talk of the internet and a promoter’s wet dream.

After his fitness tests on a Yamaha R1 and a Ducati 1198, Rossi again talked about how great and enjoyable these bikes were, with Ducati bosses hinting but more likely teasing, that they would actually let him do a wildcard entry if he wanted to, and the 9 times World Champion has once again hinted that he might switch to the ‘other’ racing series at the end of his MotoGP career.

“In a few years, when I’m older, I could even race in Superbikes with Ducati,” said a smiling Rossi talking at Ducati’s MotoGP Night.
No rider has ever won both a MotoGP and a World Superbike title, but we sure like to see Ben Spies try to break that taboo this season.
