Abarth celebrates Valentino Rossi’s second place in the Grand Prix of the Ceské Republiky in Automotodrom Brno

“The Doctor” is now second in the Rider world Championship classification

Valentino Rossi brilliantly turned the Grand Prix Ceské Republiky around claiming a good second place on the podium after making a perfect tyre decision. Abarth congratulate the Movistar Yamaha MotoGP for this important result, that put "The Doctor" in the second place of the Driver world championship classification.
Abarth and Movistar Yamaha MotoGP forged a partnership on shared values, such as a sporting passion.
Passion that Abarth shows with its recently renovated range, including the new Abarth 124 spider, designed to satisfy even the most demanding pilot. The new Scorpion model is fitted with rear-wheel drive, sophisticated suspension and a four-cylinder 1.4 MultiAir Turbo engine with 170 HP, paired with a six-speed manual or six-speed automatic Sequenziale Sportivo Essesse gearbox with steering-wheel paddle shifters.
The new 595 Abarth representing the evolution of the Scorpion brand icon: available in the saloon or convertible version, the new 595 Abarth range comes in three trim levels (595, 595 Turismo and 595 Competizione) and just as many engine power levels, to satisfy today's increasingly demanding and competent customers. Many of the upgrades introduced are the result of the experience gained with the development of the "smallest supercar": the 695 Biposto, a road car that offers all the thrills and technology of a real racing car.
Passionate support for the Movistar Yamaha Moto GP Team also comes from members of "The Scorpionship", the brand's sole official community, devoted to Abarth owners, collectors, members of Abarth Clubs and simple fans.
