Rossi challenges Mount Panorama again in the Bathurst 12 Hour

Valentino Rossi will start off 2024 in Australia. The WRT team has announced Valentino's participation in the Bathurst 12 Hour, scheduled for February 13th to 15th. The Doctor had already put himself to the test last year on Mount Panorama, a fascinating yet difficult circuit, with an uphill climb that then descends to flatland with a very long straight.

In 2023, Valentino had finished the race in 6th position, so his goal this time is to get on the podium. He’ll be driving a BMW M4 GT3 and will team up with Maxime Martin and the new entry, Raffaele Marciello. “Sharing the cockpit with Valentino is a very special thing for me. I used to watch him race in the MotoGP when I was a kid,” Marciello confessed.
