Here are his Top 5:




IBERIAN HAM

Right at the top of the list of the five foods that are never missing from my shopping basket is a good Gran Reserva ham sliced and ready to eat with toast and olive oil. For me, that’s the life.




SHEEP CHEESE

Another basic that is always in my fridge is a wedge of sheep cheese. I cut it into cubes and have it as a snack when I sit down at home to watch a good MotoGP race. It’s the perfect companion alongside the ham!




BEER

A cold beer to accompany the ham and the cheese is another of my essentials. It’s perfect for unwinding and taking some time out of the daily hustle and bustle. It tastes even better if I get to enjoy it in good company.




 ICECREAM

I have a very sweet tooth so, when I feel like something sweet, what I love most is ice cream. The one I like best is a 3 chocolate tub, particularly now it’s summer. Although I don’t limit it to the summer, there’s ice cream at home all year round.




COFFE

When I was a professional racer I didn’t drink much of it, but now I’m in another stage of my life it’s a basic for waking me up in the mornings. It’s essential for starting the day. What would we do without coffee!
