A Valentino Rossi Celebration – Part 2

Last Sunday we showed you the first video of the Italian show Matrix celebrating Valentino Rossi, this week its Rossi’s rivalry with Manuel Gibernau –Bultò, better known to the racing world as Sete “Hollywood” Gibernau.
Some of Gibernau’s best racing was done against Valentino Rossi .

Valentino Rossi described the 2003 season in his career as “the year of Gibernau, it was hard until the end”.

Gibernau riding Fausto Gresini’s Movistar Honda finished second in the championship that year with 4 race wins.
In 2004 he again finished second always with four wins.

With the media hyped Rossi curse on his back, the Spaniard finished his 2005 season 7th overall with no race wins.
Gibernau retired after the 2006 season, that saw him involved in one of MotoGP’s most terrifying accidents, but has decided to return to MotoGP next year and will be riding for the new Onde2000 Ducati team managed by the Nieto brothers.
