Rossi may not be good for race yet, but he's definitely doing the job of a test driver. So :fist: Max Biaggi 0X

Max Power · 02-01-2006, 07:44 PM

for his first real test he did pretty well, schumi is not 8th :multi: , hopefully more of the same in 06

looks to be the making of quite the competitive season

pitty that williams seem to be on such a down-turn lately... they were so close to the championship just 3 years ago.... well, bahrain will be a good showing in any case

Rossi good as a test driver, NO WAY. He is driving the 2004 car with a V10 engine, that means he should have been the fastest easily, but he is 12th. 1,5 sec slower than the much slower 2006 V8 cars!

I think it is useless to let Moto GP drivers test F1 cars! This costs a lot of money to let a slower driver drive the car, and I can't imagine he will give a more feedback than Schumi or Massa or Badoer or Gene would give.

I don't understand why they let MotoGP drivers test the car, it's just useless...
Exept that Rossi had a good day then...

^Ferrari is not stupid, there gotta be a reason why they keep using him during regular testing session other than the fact that he's italian. IMHO he is helping tyre evaluation given that Bike rider has better sense in that area.

bud, read the content and not just the headlines.....he was/is using a detuned V10 and its like his 4th time in an F1 car...

it sure does seem that way. who wants to bet Flavio will start bitching about the glare coming off the McLarens if they actually got to the grid with that paint? (the glare may even be worse than the fire/smoke)

^^^ um teams have tried it b4 (i think BAR) and haven't been allowed, no matter how funny you think it might be glare is a big problem, the bitchin wont be coming from Flavio or ferrari it will be from Honda, Williams, Toyota and FIA

When have BAR Tried it havent they always had white as their livery and Blue for the chinese gp and besides i dout mclaren would spend six months researching into a new livery and wasting time and money for the livery to be turned down think ther a lil bit more professional than that
