But he crossed paths with Rossi when he stayed on, after 🎃retiring from racing,ꦗ a test rider.
Mamola was asked about the weirdest pre-race rituals in MotoGP and immediately The Doctor sprung to mind.
“When you watched Valentino, he had an array of things, li🔯ke touching his ears before walking out of the garage,” Mamola told Motorsport.com.
“He touched his knees before steppi♋ng 👍over the line.
“He dಌid what Rafa Nadal does - he pulls up his underpants (or G-string maybe!) It was kind 🐈of weird.
“T🍒he funny thing is: I used to say to Dorna ‘why are you filming this every weekend?’
“‘Because it’s Rossi’.
“Yes, but one time is enough per weekend.
“I believe this was one of the most ꦇincredible ones.
“Remember he u🦄sed to hold the foot peg before he got on the bike🎐?
“When I tested the bikes in Valencia at the end of the year, every time I rode the Yamaha of V🍰alentino, I squatted d🦄own and held the foot peg.
“They said: ‘If you crash it we’ll kill you!’
“I said: ‘This will stop me from crashing…’
“This was always funny.”
Superstitions in MotoGP
M🎐amola was also considering the odd🌠est superstitions he had encountered in racing.
Immed💦iately the name of Mick Grant - a seven-time Isle of Man TT race winner - popped up.
“There was a rider called Mic﷽k Grant,” Mamola smiled. “This wa🧸s funny…
“There was a British magazine talking about superstitions꧃. Mick was a great character, a great riderꦐ.
“When getting dressed, if he dropped his✃ glove, he felꦓt that he needed to ask someone else to pick it up.
“Every 🍎time I drop my glove, when I get dressed, I think of how stupid Mick Grant was! And I pick it up myself!♏”
