Throwback to when Valentino Rossi tested a Ferrari F1 car and ended up just 0.7’s off Michael Schumacher’s pace…

Michael had set a time of 1m 11.640s with Rossi, driving an older spec of car and engine, lapping in 1m12.362s.

Former Ferrari chairman Luca di Montezemelo was so impressed he suggested that the team would field Rossi in a third car if the rules allowed it.
