Rossi to test Ferrarri next week

I'd prefer it if he just stayed in GP anyway

Rossi drives a GT in Misano
News, 13/02/06

When an opportunity to experience speed presents itself to Valentino Rossi, the Italian isn´t one to waste it. Last Friday, after returning from Yamaha´s Qatar Test, he spent the day driving a Maserati MC12, a car which last season took part in the Italian Touring Car Championship.

At the request of Rossi, there is no footage from the session at Misano. However it is evident that the MotoGP star once again showed his adaptability, having previously turned his hand to WRC and Formula 1.

Back on two wheels this week, Rossi will continue with the preseason alongside the rest of the MotoGP teams in Malaysia.

Why didn't he want camera's? Was he that embarrased in Spain.
I suppose a guy like him ain't used to failure

Teo what's with your boy Fernando? He seems to be in bunches over Rossi testing in F1. Saying how it is a waste of Ferrari's time. He claimed Rossi "...might finish fifth or even get on the podium some time, but I could do the same on the bikes if I was given a bit of time to practise." Right Fernando... Check out the Crash.net article in its entirety here.

That translation is quite harsh he didn't say "a bit of time" he said "around 3 years" and then he concluded saying that he would probably never beat a guy like Dani or Vale on a bike.

About Rossi being a waste of time, yeah that's what he said and what most of the F1 drivers think. And me too.

I don't agree or diagree with his statements about Rossi, what he thinks in his own arena is his deal and that's fine. I just found it humorous that he thought he could race at a world championship level on a motorcycle.

I just finished reading that article on superbikeplanet...

the dude is a bit nutty.
