Rossi Rumored to Start Moto3 Team

The French colleagues at GP Inside have been eavesdropping and they caught some whispers which claimed that a new Moto3 team could appear from a certain place in Italy, by the name of Tavullia.
If we knew nothing about MotoGP's legendary rider Valentino Rossi, such a rumor might have passed us by and flown away, but things are a bit different. Tavullia is Rossi's home, and nearby one can see his own Moto Ranch, an amazing playground for the top riders, MotoGP, TT, Supermoto and any other series they might be coming from.

GP Inside read some interesting lines in the Italian Gazzetta dello Sport, and the Doctor's fellow countrymen had a raised eyebrow on the more often occasions Rossi is meeting young Italian talented riders there, his half-brother Luca Marini included.

According to the same rumor, Rossi is said to ready his team for the 2014 season, with factory KTM machinery and Romano Fenati and Niccolo Antonelli aboard the bikes.

Well worth delving deeper into this... can you imagine a team being trained and coached by the world's most successful MotoGP rider? The youngsters may become Premier Class stars in 5 years or so...
