Rossi completes two day test with Ferrari
03/08/2005 MotoGP champion Valentino Rossi, who this week signed a new one-year deal with Yamaha, thereby scotching claims that he might switch to Formula One, has carried out a two day test session with Ferrari at Maranello. The Italian, working alongside test driver Marc Gene, was delighted with the test. "I wanted to get a better understanding of a Formula 1 car," said Rossi, "and I would like to thank Ferrari for giving me the opportunity to do so. "The two days were intensive and interesting. I completed a lot of kilometres and I began to understand the handling of the car, working with the engineers and Marc Gené. I go back to the two wheels where there is still a long way to go to the end of the season," he added. |
