4. His private race track
Why does Valentino Rossi need a 198-acre property? The answer is: to build his own private race track. His home in Tavullia is not just a place for him to take a rest, but also to practice his skills.
The 1.8 mile race track is located at his ranch, alongside his bunkhouse, farm, and vineyard. It is not asphalt like common MotoGP tracks. It is a dirt track.
Vale’s father, who was also a professional racer, trained him on a dirt track since he was young. Graziano Rossi believes that it helps him in controlling the bike. You’re right, Babbo, he really is the master of corners.
Usually, his practice here is not a casual ride around the track. He would host a tournament where his friends and fellow riders can join in.
