FIM President Vito Ippolito and CEO Dorna Carmelo Ezpeleta have confirmed that Dani Pedrosa will get the title of MotoGP legend. The award will be awarded in the last series that took place at the Circuit Ricardo Tormo, Valencia, 18 November.

Then, worth Pedrosa get the title as a MotoGP legend? Though he has not been out as world champion since rising to the main class in 2006. There may be some consideration for Ippolito and Ezpeleta in rewarding the Repsol Honda rider.

One factor is the dedication of Pedrosa in boosting the popularity of motor racing in the prestigious class. This situation is the same as that of FIM and Dorna Sports while giving the title of legend to Randy Mamola.

During his career, the former jockey from the United States had never given a trophy champion to the team. Mamola's only best achievement is in the third position in the final standings of racing. And that happened in 1983 and 1986 while still in the 500cc class.

"I think this is a small contribution from this championship to what Pedrosa has done throughout his career, the decision he made is very honest and loyal, he has everything to keep competing, but by being honest with himself he has decided to retire. people will do the same, "Ezpeleta said as quoted by Carolenash, Friday (13/07/2018).

"I want to thank him, thank you and thank you for the example you gave us," Ezpeleta added.

Pedrosa can be likened to a talisman of Honda. During his professional racing career, the 32-year-old rider had never switched to a team move. His loyalty has resulted in some achievements for other riders.

There are some riders who have felt the impact of this 'obedient' racer. They are Casey Stoner, the late Nicky Hayden, to Marc Marquez.

In short, later, if FIM and Dorna Sports as the highest authority in the world championship of motor racing officially inaugurated Pedrosa as a legend. The Spaniard will be joined by a series of names that have already received the stamp as a legend.
