Randy Mamola
Randy Mamola Divenuto professionista a soli 16 anni, Randy esordì nel Motomondiale nel 1979 in sella ad una Yamaha 250, con la quale conquistò 3 podi e chiuse il campionato in quarta posizione. Amava guidare la moto fidandosi solo del suo istinto e senza mai calcolare nulla: sorpassi impossibili, staccate incredibili, intraversate, fumate di gomme e pieghe oltre i limiti della fisica erano all’ordine del giorno. Rischiava molto e spesso, anche quando non era necessario. Sull’asciutto e sul bagnato, di cui era uno spe - cialista. Con gomme nuove e con gomme finite. E fu proprio per questa sua spiccata propensione al rischio che Randy Mamola, a differenza dei suoi illustri conterranei, rimase un Re senza corona. Suzuki, Honda, Yamaha, Cagiva e ancora Yamaha. In tredici stagioni nella classe regina corse prati - camente con tutte le moto, raccogliendo 13 vittorie e 54 podi. Peccato solo per quel titolo mondiale più volte sfiorato, ma mai arrivato. Nel 1980 fu Kenny Roberts a negarglielo, nel 1981 Marco Lucchinelli, nel 1984 Eddie Lawson e nel 1987 Wayne Gardner. Generoso in pista e nella vita, nel 1986 Randy cominciò a raccogliere fondi per Save the Children, un’associazione che si occupa tuttora dei bambini africani. E fu proprio durante uno dei suoi viaggi in Africa che notò qualcosa che lo colpì profondamente: le motoci - clette venivano utilizzate per il trasporto di medicinali e di apparecchiature mediche. Ma o c versavano anche in pessime condizioni. Questo lo c spinse, dieci anni più tardi, a fondare assieme ad altre a persone Riders for Healt, una onlus che si occupa di for - b a nire moto e addestramento tecnico per la loro manuten - T zione in Africa. -
