From a press release issued by Clinica Mobile:
Clinica Mobile & ebay
Clinica Mobile and ebay have formed an association to offer one of Loris Capirossi’s helmets for auction. The specialised medical organisation, which looks after the riders of the motorcycling world championships and is headed by the world-famous Dr.Costa, has teamed up with the equally famous “on-line marketplace”, ebay, to help raise funds towards the running costs of the Clinic.
The helmet was very kindly donated for auction by Loris Capirossi after taking provisional pole position in Barcelona on June 15th 2001 and is autographed and dated.
Loris Capirossi has won World Championships in the 125GP and 250GP Championships and enjoyed victories in 500GP. In 2003 he joins the exciting new Ducati MotoGP team to partner Troy Bayliss aboard the Ducati Desmosedici.
The Clinica Mobile has developed into an incredibly efficient, highly professional and talented medical back-up team for the competitors of the motorcycle world championships. Ingeniously built into two articulated trucks, the clinics attend every race by dedicating one clinic to the Grand Prix and one to the World Superbike Championships. As the competition travels from country to country, the Clinica Mobile maintains a constant vigil over the competitors.
