Valentino Rossi

My hero's name is Valentino Rossi, called The Doctor, and he is not a typical hero from movies who helps and saves others but he is a normal person with a passion. And this passion is motorcycle racing. He comes from Italy and he is 37 years old. He is always kind, happy, smiling and ready for jokes.

He started racing when he was 17 and now he is one of the best moto gp riders. First year when he started competing he was already 9th and next year he has won 11 times so he progressed into a higher class. Even though he was one of the best racers in the world he was not allowed to drive on roads because he did not have a driving license. Now he is racing in the highest class moto gp. He has won more then 100 races and 9 championships.

He is important to me because despite being old for a racer he is still competing and winning. Despite many accidents he is still continues to race. He never gives up and is always going after his goal. And also important to me because I like motorbikes and he is a very good racer. Because of him i know failures happen but it is important to learn from them and continue going after my goals.
