Rossi in RAC rally

Valetino Rossi de 4 voudig wereldkampioen snelheid bij de motoren rijdt de RAC rally voor Peugeot.
Dat gaat spektakel geven.
Quote:
Motorcycle world champion Valentino Rossi has confirmed his deal to drive a Peugeot 206 WRC on the Rally GB in November.

The 23-year-old, who has claimed the inaugural MotoGP title this year, will be run by the Italian Grifone team. Miki Biasion's former co-driver Carlo Cassini will partner him.

"I can't wait to get behind the wheel of the Peugeot 206 WRC and to take part for the first time in a round of the World Rally Championship, which Michelin and Grifone have made possible for me," said Rossi.

"I am very keen and very serious about this and I want to get as much experience as I can. I know how difficult this British rally is, but it would be great for me to get to the finish."

Rossi's rally experience is confined to appearing in the annual Race of Champions sprint event in the Canary Islands for the past two years. On both occasions he made it through to the quarter-final stages.

The Cardiff-based Rally GB starts on November 14.

Valentino Rossi zal niet de enige zijn die een one-off event komt meedoen in de rally GB. F1live heeft immers opgevangen dat ook ex-f1rijder Mark blundell zou deelnemen

In Rossi's geval is het wel meer dan een eenmalige stunt. Hij heeft al rally's gereden en tevens te kennen gegeven binnen enkele jaren te willen stoppen met moto's en over te stappen op andere raceformules, waaronder misschien rally.

De Italiaanse wereldkampioen snelheidsmotoren Valentino Rossi heeft een testrit achter de rug met een Peugeot 206. In november maakt hij zijn rallydebuut, in de laatste manche van het WK. "Dit is een unieke kans. Rally is mijn tweede passie. Ik wou vertrouwd geraken met de auto en met de aanwijzingen die co-rijder Carlo Cassina roept".

De RAC begint korter te komen en oefening baart kunst.

MotoGP champion Valentino Rossi test drove a Peugeot 206 on Thursday ahead of his debut in next month's Rally of Britain.

The Italian will drive in the final round of the World Rally Championship in Britain, which starts on November 14. The 23-year-old Rossi tested the Michelin-backed 206WRC he will drive in the Cardiff-based event for the first time on the gravel roads of the Italian Riveria around Imperia along with co-driver Carlo Cassina.

"It's a fantastic opportunity for me to be able to drive in a World Rally Championship round because rallying is my second passion after motorbikes," said Rossi. "The kilometres I have been able to do today have allowed me to familiarise myself with my car and above all accustom myself to listening to the pace notes read out by my co-driver Carlo. "I felt very comfortable with the car and felt the same sensations as I do in MotoGP concerning cornering lines and engine power. "On the other hand the braking distances are very different."

Rossi, who has dominated the 2002 MotoGP season on board his Honda, will have a two-day test in the Welsh forests at the start of November prior to the event. He said that winning was out the question on his debut, adding that reaching the finish after three gruelling days would his target.

"I won't be driving 100 percent on the first day of Rally GB," he said. "My objective? I have got about as much chance of winning the rally outright as I have of winning the soccer World Cup! "There will be at least 15 drivers ahead of me fighting for that. I just really want to go all the way to the finish."
