Valentino Rossi will be trying his hand in rallying again when he’ll take part in next year’s round of the World Rally Championship in Mexico.
The reigning MotoGP champion who may cinch his 9th World title at the Malaysian GP this upcoming weekend, will be driving a Ford Focus.
“It is the last chance to race in WRC before new rules in 2011.
I can’t let the opportunity escape me,” Rossi reported from his own column that he keeps in the Italian sports daily Gazzetta dello Sport.
Rossi has already taken part in rallies in Britain and New Zealand and several shows has always hinted that he would like a second career on four wheels after he retires from motorcycle racing.
