The tension in the air was thick in the paddock. You and Valentino Rossi were enemies. Rivals in true words. Pray for anyone who ever put you in the same room.

You raced for Ducati, but Valentino raced for Yamaha. You were enemies on the track, of course, but you couldn't help but notice the glances he sent your way from across the paddock.

Today is Valentino's birthday... but he wasn't his cheerful self... everyone forgot - his friends, team, teammate, family... he was lonely and heartbroken as he sat on the empty VIP balcony, watching the empty race track as the rain poured on him.
