Farewell to Ralf Waldmann, protagonist with the colors Aprilia and proud rival of Max Biaggi in the great seasons of the 250cc world championship.
Born in Hagen (North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany) he collected numerous grand prix victories, but no world title. He rode on Aprilia in 1993 (finishing fourth in the 125cc category), then returned to a Noale bike in 1999, 2000, 2002 and 2009, in 250cc.
He was 51. From Aprilia, and on behalf of the entire Piaggio Group, we extend a warm embrace to his family.
