#VR46WorldLap: a milestone for Rossi in Jerez



The number 46 will have raced the equivalent of a lap of the world by the end of Lap 15 of the Spanish GP


In his 369th Grand Prix, Valentino Rossi (Movistar Yamaha MotoGP) will be completing his 8730th lap on Lap 15 of the Spanish GP. What’s so special about that, more than the incredible longevity? On completing Lap 15, the ‘Doctor’ will be reaching an remarkable milestone – racing the equivalent distance of a lap of the world, 40,075km.
What kind of lap of the world? The circumference of the Earth. And it’s taken the number 46 23 seasons to race it, in which he’s taken 115 wins, 228 podiums and nine World Championships across four categories. A world of success – quite literally.
