Geoff Duke
His commitment in rescuing pilots starts right on the circuit of Imola, on 22 April 1957, when he saved the life of Geoff Duke, after a disastrous fall on the curve of the "mineral waters" while he was competing in the 500 class of the Golden Shell Cup on his Gilera. On that occasion, the young Claudio Costa managed to rescue the pilot dragging him off the track, and removed the bike out of it as well since it would have been a dangerous obstacle.
