MotoGP™ fans and collectors have the opportunity to own an exceptionally rare piece of motorcycle racing history with the launch of a new Valentino Rossi signed photograph collection from MotoGP™ Authentics, operated by Memento Exclusives under licence from MotoGP™, in collaboration with VR46.
Limited to just 146 signed photographs, this exclusive collection celebrates some of the most memorable moments from Rossi’s remarkable career, with each image personally signed by the legend himself.
One of the most accomplished riders in Grand Prix motorcycle racing history, Rossi enjoyed an extraordinary career spanning 26 seasons, becoming a nine-time World Champion and establishing himself as one of the most recognisable figures the sport has ever produced.
The new collection gives fans the chance to own a piece of that storied career, with signed photography capturing five defining moments from across Rossi’s time in Grand Prix racing.
The collection starts with where the winning began. On 18 August 1996, a 17-year-old Rossi claimed his first-ever Grand Prix victory in the 125cc class at Brno in the Czech Republic – the opening chapter of a career that would go on to define an era of motorcycle racing.
Two of MotoGP™’s most celebrated battles are also represented. At the 2008 United States Grand Prix at Laguna Seca, Rossi went head-to-head with Casey Stoner in a race remembered for their intense battle and Rossi’s famous move at the Corkscrew on Lap 4.
The 2009 Catalan Grand Prix is also featured, where Yamaha teammates Rossi and Jorge Lorenzo fought throughout an unforgettable 25-lap contest. The race was decided with Rossi’s celebrated final-corner move, securing a remarkable victory.
VR46 also commemorates his dramatic victory at the 2015 Dutch Grand Prix at TT Circuit Assen, where Rossi took the win ahead of Marc Márquez and Jorge Lorenzo. On the final lap, Rossi and Marquez collided causing Rossi to go on the gravel before rejoining the track to claim the victory.
Closing out the collection are images from Rossi’s final MotoGP™ race, the Valencian Grand Prix on 14 November 2021, which brought his legendary 26-year Grand Prix career to a close.
Each autographed image has been carefully presented as a premium collectable by the Memento Exclusives team, designed to showcase each iconic moment and create a display worthy of Rossi’s extraordinary career. Rossi personally signed every photograph in the collection, reinforcing the authenticity and exclusivity of each photograph.
With only 146 signed photographs available across the collection, these pieces represent an extremely limited opportunity for collectors to own memorabilia personally autographed by Rossi and depicting some of the moments that helped shape his extraordinary career.
The Valentino Rossi signed photograph collection is available exclusively through MotoGP™ Authentics.
