MotoGP: Dani Pedrosa's real life (video)

Published on 02 May 2012 by Adriano

How do you think a MotoGP top rider like Dani Pedrosa relax? Which sort of sports do you think he practices to stay fit? And what about his hobbies? Answers to these questions and many more are being provided by the rider himself during this pretty interesting video released by the main sponsor of the Honda MotoGP team, Spanish oil and gas company Repsol.

This footage was recorded during the last winter in Switzerland, where the Spanish star has been living for quite a few years, and it is Pedrosa himself explaining the reasons behind this choice as well as introducing the viewers to the sort of life-style he carries when ‘off duty’. Given the discrete and silent nature f the character involved, this clip turns out to be quite revealing of Pedrosa’s habits and general attitude toward life.

From the pretty Swiss town Prangins, the diminutive Repsol Honda rider explains how he finds the right balance necessary to relax between races in this small town with just 4,000 inhabitants facing the Lake Geneva. Pedrosa is pictured while carrying on pretty ‘regular’ activities such as cycling, buying bred at the shop, having fun with the PlayStation and going out for a quiet eve with his friends. Definitely an interesting watch.
