Ferrari Offers Formula One Test Drive To MotoGP Champion Rossi MotoGP


MotoGP champion Valentino Rossi will be switching to Formula One later this year — at least for a few laps.

A Ferrari press officer, said the team would give Rossi a test drive to commemorate his world championship.

“We are happy to give Valentino once again the opportunity to test our Formula One car,” said a spokesman at the Brazilian Grand Prix where Ferrari are fighting for both world championships this weekend.

“He’s a friend of Ferrari, we are friends of his and it’s a nice way to celebrate his world championship and fantastic career.”

He said the test would be at an Italian circuit before the end of the year.

Yamaha rider Rossi, who this year clinched his sixth title in motorcycling’s top category, last tested a Ferrari Formula One car in 2006 when he was being seriously considered for a possible race seat with the team.
