Valentino Rossi and Giacomo Agostini at 2009 TT

As Marc Potter from MCN, who rode alongside Valentino Rossi and Giacomo Agostini during the parade lap and was with the Italian duo while they were watching the Dainese Superbike race reported what Valentino Rossi said, or what I imagine anyone would say, who was taking in for the first time in their life the Tourist Trophy and watching John McGuinness go by at 180mph: “’Fack!”Rossi rode a specially painted 2009 Yamaha R1 alongside Giacamo Agostini who was on a MV Agusta and followed the TT marshals and “Ago” showed Rossi where he won 10 TT Trophys out of the sixteen times he competed in the races when they were part of the official Gran Prix championship.
