Rossi swaps wheels for keels
01 Aug 2003
MotoGP World Champion Valentino Rossi spent an afternoon meeting fans and supporters in Leicester Square as a precursor to the British Grand Prix at Donington Park last month.
Swapping his 220hp 990cc V5 Honda motorcycle for a 225hp 3.5litre V6 BF225 Honda Formula 4-stroke offshore powerboat, Rossi drove the boat to St Katherine's Docks near Tower Bridge, jumped on a Honda Gold Wing and rode to Leicester Square to meet with 4,500 MotoGP race fans.
