MotoGP-Valentino-Rossi-AGV-Special-Helmet

One of the biggest stories surrounding this year’s final round is the fact that it will be Valentino Rossi’s last Grand Prix. While many fans have been feeling a sense of melancholy at Rossi’s impending retirement.

I couldn’t help but feel a certain pang of sadness myself when I saw just how emotional he was when he revealed his iconic Yamaha helmet livery for what’s bound to be his very last season in MotoGP.

Rossi has officially entered the final phase of his career. The Doctor is retiring, and when he does, we’ll be forced to move on without him. What makes this reality so difficult to accept is that the sport of motorcycle racing will never be the same without one of its most excellent ambassadors.

Rossi’s farewell helmet livery has been in the making for a while, and we finally get to see it. Vale’s retiring from MotoGP — soon — but will his career be over by 2021?

There’s been much chatter from fans worldwide about what Rossi might do in his post-racing career. He’s been so humble and calm about it, even joking it would be an extended vacation. But we all know that Vale doesn’t get holidays.

For those of you who’d like to get a closer look at Rossi’s farewell helmet livery, we’ve got you covered. Detailing the uniquely designed yellow and black layers on his AGV Pista GP RR lid. So, buckle up and take a look at everything that makes this helmet so unique.

Rossi’s helmet for his last MotoGP race at Misano, Italy’s GP of Emilia-Romagna, was indeed one of a kind. Designed by Aldo Drudi. The artist behind Rossi’s iconic “46” livery, the helmet blended a realistic.Colourful caricature of grandstands across from some of Rossi’s most memorable moments on the track from Misano.

Rossi’s helmet is covered in small details that are often only really visible in the flesh. So there has been great anticipation to see what sort of design it would have when painted.

The 46 no is present on the head, which matches the yellow colour scheme’s darker shade in the head area of the helmet.

On the rear, we could see caricatures of various animals like dogs and cats holding a placard that says “Forza Vale.”
