Valentino Rossi arrives for his media appointment on board his special edition Monster Energy Yamaha R1, midday in a rainy Paris.
Riding his way down the Champs-Élysées before revving his bike to the max and performing a burn-out underneath the Eiffel Tower.
Valentino Rossi:“It was quite dangerous and slippery out there with the rain, but I managed to do a little burn-out by the Eiffel Tower.
I did try a little wheelie too, but I was out on the roads with the police so I couldn’t be too naughty! It’s my first time to the Eiffel Tower so I was pleased to do that, we all had some fun out there.
I’m looking forward to this weekend at Le Mans now, and hope I can be celebrating my 99th Grand Prix victory there.
