Thursday February 02, 2006 Rossi beats a few F1 regulars at Valencia
After spinning out on his first lap yesterday, today Rossi set 9th fastest time at Valencia. He posted a fastest lap just 1.6s behind the fastest time of Alonso, and just over a second behind Schumacher's fastest time, who was testing in the new Ferrari. Rossi beat several F1 regulars, including Webber (Williams), Coulthard (Red Bull) and Trulli (Toyota).
Mark Webber of course is one the drivers who commented recently on Rossi's prospects at Valencia. This is only Rossi's fourth outing in an F1 car.
Now if only I could find a bookmaker willing to take on my "Rossi F1 Champ by 2008" bet.
