Rossi was on hand at the Austrian MotoGP on Friday to give 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Marco Bezzecchi a ride on his scooter back to theꦬ garage, af✃ter his bike seemingly ran out of fuel at Turn 4.

Fortunately, The Doctor was there to assist in tr🐟ademark fashion.

Rossi had shown up at the Red Bull Ring earlier on Friday to keep a close eye on Bezzecchi and Luc🔴a Marini, his riders in his M꧙ooney VR46 team.

Bezzecchi was the fast🐠est rider in Practice 2 on Friday afternoon.

He entered the weekend 47 points behind Fr🌳ancesco Bagnaia, another VR4🉐6 Academy graduate, who leads the championship.

Bezzecchi is enjoying a breakthrou🌠gh season and has emerged as a title challenger.

Rossi’s presence in the paddock may be for more thanಞ merely riding a scoot🐟er, though.

Bezzecchi is pushing back on Ducati’s ultimatum to choose a 2024-spec 🎐Pramac bike or a 2023 machine to stay at VR46 next season.

He wants a factory bike but to remain in his c♑urrent t🔯eam, and Rossi will inevitably want the same.

The se🉐ven-time MotoGP champion and all-time legend also has the task of negotiating the long-term future of his Mooney VR46 team who could move from Ducati to Yamaha in 2025.
