MOTOGP REVIEW
What we discovered in Mugello

1. All of the grid girls were called Alice. Apparently.
2. Valentino Rossi’s brilliantly eye-catching helmet put off all of his rivals, as we suspected it might. Not that we’d ascribe Rossi’s victory to his helmet alone, but it sure helped.

PITT IN THE PITS
Hollywood actor shows up with son at Mugello

The stubbly half of Team Brangelina made a surprise visit to Mugello on Sunday, for the Italian MotoGP. The Bradster - that’s what he lets us call him - turned up hidden beneath a hat, and with six-year-old son Maddox in tow. Like his dad, little Maddox was wearing shades and sporting ear plugs - probably to drown out the noise of inane questions from the world’s press.
It was quite a PR coup for MotoGP, which rarely attracts as many celebs as F1. You can watch a video of Pitt at Mugello here: LINK
