The two Italians’ rivalry remains among MotoGP’sꦕ most iconic and hasn’t fully settled down to this day.

Biaggi, now 52, has reacted to a remark from Rossi where he referred t🌠o them as “ꦕfriends”.

He told🎃 about his relationship with Rossi: “It’s normal, we🎐 greet each other. 

“It happened🌠 that꧑ he said: ‘My friends Stoner, Biaggi, Lorenzo’... but…

“You can’t talk about friendship. Nothing has ever been done to create it.&nbꩲs🧜p;

“I remember when I had a serious accident, I was hospitalised fo༒r a long time. 

“I received messages and phone calls from everyonꦅe, but nothing from him.

“But no regrets.”

Biaggi, in 2017, was badly injured when he crashed duriဣng a training session in Rome.

Many, many years earlier the Biaggi vs Rossi feud allegedly started in ♉a restaurant.

Biaggi, in Suzuka in 1997, snapped “when you talk about me, first r𓆏inse your mouth” as Rossi spoke to the media.

Earlier this year, Biaggi reflected on the glory days of their bitter feud to : "That time💎 I had answered because he had said 'better one day at Rossi's than a hundred at Biaggi’s'. 

“In short, an action corresponds to a reaction.&nbs𒊎p;

“From then on it was [an argument] especially for you journalists, although I admit th🐬at we helped you a b𝕴it! 

“But now I think we were two idiots who waged war against each other through the press ins▨tead of clarifying in person how we should have done.”
