Aldo Drudi – The Rossi Story.
Aldo Drudi is from the same area of Italy as Valentino Rossi, and he currently lives in Riccione, which is an area rich in Motosport history and is surrounded in racing icons – the Ferrari headquarters and the Ducati headquarters are only a hundred or so kilometers away.
Drudi became friends with Graziano Rossi (Valentino’s father) early on in Graziano’s racing career and Drudi has been friends with the Rossi family ever since. This is an interesting interview that Drudi conducted with motorcycle clothing manufacturer Spidi, whom he was doing some design work for. Drudi talks about his past in Rimini and Cattolica, and how he met Valentino’s father Graziano Rossi and began designing helmets for him initially, before moving on to working with Valentino.
