Read "Matti dalle gare", the second book of Luca Delli Carri, is a time of growth. For anyone. Motorcycle enthusiasts or not, it does not matter: this book (767 pages of interviews with 60 riders bikers) can infect those who see the bikes in a negative way because "I fear ..." or because "... They are dangerous." The first element to be considered is already in the preface. "What a beautiful day for racing," on page 11. He writes the journalist and author of thirty-three. "No pilot is crazy, this is not discussed. If some crazy running, do not become pilots, do not have time: they run, fall, get hurt, they stop, all in a hurry, all very fast. The driver is the Instead of a madman is the man who pursues the calculated risk. If everything depended on his actions only, if there were no human error or mechanical failure, you would never hurt, never would not fall down from the bike. " It is also true that the list of riders fell, injured, maimed, or never come out of the coma awakening is long, and Delli Carri not forget them. But in this book are the drivers to talk, to tell, to make the reader understand what it means to run. Without filters. A question, answer. And that's that. For a total of 170 hours of interviews and six years of work, "Matti from racing" is a book written. How lucky! Because of motion we have always seen much but read little: beautiful photo books, monographs on champions and little more. Images shot in double page accompanied by some captions and a roll of honor. Instead of reading "Matti dalle gare" you can understand what the test pilot once in the saddle, when you fasten the helmet and on the runway. And not just about testing, epic races, accidents, snatched pole position at the last second good evidence. Pilots interviewed told rivalries between runners, feelings, dreams and fears. Look, for example, what Virginio Ferrari says: "When you're the pilot and take off the helmet and the suit and wear a sweater and a shirt, you're one of the many walking on the road but you are a pilot who took off his helmet and the suit, and initially you find it difficult to live this double identity, understood as a pilot and pilot when removing the helmet. " In the book there is something for everyone: from the axes of the speed as Giacomo Agostini, Valentino Rossi, Loris Capirossi and Max Biaggi (to name a few), to the legends of the past and present of the Cross: Emilio Ostorero, Alex Puzar, Chicco Chiodi Andrea Bartolini, Michele Rinaldi and Corrado Maddii. Then the "African" Edi Orioli, Fabrizio Meoni and Ciro De Petri. For the Enduro instead they have told John Hall, Mario Rinaldi and Alessandro Gritti. Who they are, what they dream, how they train, what happens when the bike will spin on a dune while traveling at full throttle? And the future? As if I imagine once you hung up his helmet? In those 60 interviews it is explained everything.
