Bezzecchi's maiden MotoGP victory in Argentina has only helped grow Valentino Rossi's legacy beyond his career as a rider. Opinion:
OPINION: Marco Bezzecchi’s maiden MotoGP win in Argentina was also the VR46 team’s first trip to the top spot of the podium in the premier class.
In its second season, the extraordinary results the team has achieved carry the seal of the most authentic Rossi - the young rider who won titles for fun. Now, through the young riders of the academy, it keeps his legacy more alive than ever. "One day, Franco [Morbidelli] asked me to help him find some overalls, because he couldn't find any brand that would sponsor him, and I helped him," adds the man who was, for 25 years, the #46's shadow in his garage."And then I wondered if it wouldn't be a good idea to get serious and create an academy. I talked to Vale and he asked me 'Do you want to work on this?' That's how it all started.
"We always fight very hard, but we are very close friends and we have a great relationship. We don't hold anything inside, we're very open with each other" The academy's main secret is very simple: to put fun at the centre of everything, without worrying about anything else. The riders work, train, compete with each other, listen to Rossi's advice and challenge each other.
Another secret is the professionalisation of the academy and the team, a process that has always maintained a common denominator: placing Rossi's most trusted people in key positions. Rossi's best friend, Uccio, is the 'boss', but next to him the people in charge of the VR46 company are people who have always worked with Rossi.
