Valentino Rossi's Monza Rally Car livery

We’ve already mentioned that this upcoming weekend’s Monza Rally Show will be dedicated to late Marco Simoncelli and friend Valentino Rossi will also be taking part as he usually does every year (last year he missed it, as he was recovering from shoulder surgery).

Since Rossi has taken to Twitter like a duck to water, he posted the pics of the Ford Fiesta WRC car he’ll be racing with.

The graphic design is pimped by Aldo Drudi and has Rossi’s trademark sun and moon motif and the usual array of bright colours that distinguish his helmet’s and also has a large tribute to friend Marco Simoncelli.

Also taking part in the rally show will be Andrea Dovizioso, Moto2 riders Andrea Iannone and Claudio Corti.
