The old physics of Fernando Alonso and Michael Schumacher have passed away.
Fabrizio Bolla passed away on Sunday, age 64 after battling cancer for the past year.
“I miss you, Fabrie,” read an emotional tribute from Alonso.
“Every day. Thank you for teaching me so much, and for making me a better person and an athlete.
“My whole career with you was the biggest luck I could have.
“Live in peace, brothers.”
Mullet was a popular physiotherapist who worked for MotoGP rider Andrea Dovizioso and cyclist Marco Pantani, as well as for Formula 1 drivers.
He also worked with celebrities, and singer Giovanotti said of his death:
“We laughed, we cried together. We suffered and joyed together. It helped me overcome obstacles and we never lost lightness and confidence.”
Mullets have been working with Alonso since the beginning of Formula 1.
He is remembered by Formula 1 fans at the infamous moment in the 2007 Hungarian Ligue Rampuri which involved Lewis Hamilton.
Alonso and Hamilton were McLaren’s teammates at the time.
When a moment of tension erupted between the drivers, Rondenis was discovered in a difficult conversation with Alonso’s representative mullet at the pit wall.
