Yamaha and Rossi fans wish The Doctor a speedy recovery at Silverstone

At the British GP last weekend at Silverstone, the Yamaha Motor UK stand and gaggle of Valentino Rossi fans took the opportunity to wish the Italian rider a speedy recovery after his crash at Mugello.

Yamaha’s Marketing Manager Simon Belton said, “There is a huge amount of support for Valentino in this country and we are very proud that he is riding for Yamaha.

“It’s the least we can do to demonstrate that we are all thinking of him.”

For those whose Italian isn’t up to scratch, it reads, “Get well soon Valentino. We miss you.”
