Marc Márquez afirmou que não descarta ler a nova autobiografia de Valentino Rossi, mas deixou a puNews Summary
- Valentino Rossi will release his new autobiography, La Mia Storia, on November 10.
- Marc Márquez says he intends to read the book, but only after retiring from motorcycle racing.
- The Ducati rider praised Rossi as one of the sport’s legends despite their unresolved rivalry dating back to 2015.
Marc Márquez has surprisingly revealed that he intends to read Valentino Rossi’s new autobiography — although the current MotoGP championship leader plans to wait until his own racing career is over.
Rossi is preparing to release La Mia Storia on November 10. Written alongside Italian journalist Giorgio Terruzzi, the autobiography is expected to revisit the nine-time world champion’s career, including his famous rivalry with Márquez and the controversial 2015 MotoGP season.
Asked at Misano whether he was interested in discovering Rossi’s version of those events, Márquez left the door open.
“But I don’t know if he speaks about it or not, but let’s see,” Márquez said. “Why not? Maybe when I retire, I will read to try to learn things.”
The Spaniard then offered a notably respectful assessment of his former rival.
“Because in the end, it’s good to learn from all the legends of every sport,” he continued. “I read some books and some biographies. And why not? You always learn from the top legends.”
The comments come only days after Rossi announced the autobiography and promised to tell his version of the defining moments of his career.
Márquez and Rossi’s relationship deteriorated dramatically during the 2015 title fight, particularly after their confrontation at Sepang. More than a decade later, the relationship has never been fully repaired.
The subject returned to prominence at Misano. During Friday Practice, Márquez criticised the MotoGP broadcast for repeatedly cutting between images of him and Rossi, saying there was already enough spectacle on track without reviving the old rivalry.
Despite that irritation, Márquez made clear he has no problem recognising Rossi’s place in MotoGP history — and may eventually be interested in hearing his old rival’s story.
