[QUOTE="evo3, post: 1181874, member: 3706"] [LEFT]Rossi challenges Alonso[/LEFT] [B]By Theodore Liasi [/B] [B]LONDON (espnstar.com)[/B] - Valentino Rossi has told Fernando Alonso to put his money where his mouth is after the Formula One World Champion claimed he remained unimpressed by the MotoGP superstar's recent tests with Ferrari. The Renault world champion poured scorn on Rossi's efforts claiming the Italian would find it very difficult to switch from two wheels to four. "He might finish fifth or even get on the podium some time but I could do the same on the bikes if I was given enough time to practise," the Spanish driver told a news conference. Alonso's comments did not go unchallenged as the fiery Italian responded by challenging Alonso to three-stage race. "I read that if Alonso is able to make some practice then he can put a MotoGP bike on the podium with me," Rossi was quoted as saying in Motorcycle News on Wednesday. "Well, I think we should drive a Formula One car, a World Rally car and a MotoGP bike, add the times together and then we will see who is the fastest." Rossi has repeatedly tested for Ferrari including a session in February with other drivers where he managed to post a lap time quicker than a number of regular F1 drivers. However, Alonso's voice is not a lone one within Formula One, Midland Racing's Christijan Albers – who admits to being a big fan of Rossi's – also had his doubts suggesting that Rossi's performance in Spain last month. "Knowing Ferrari, they could have taken all the fuel out of his car to make him go quicker," he told [B]espnstar.com [/B]exclusively. "I'm not saying that is what they did, but it wouldn't surprise me." http://www.espnstar.com/commonimages/trans.gif ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ i think Alonso will chicken out cos alonso had never(never read it b4) drive a WRC Car and ride it MOtoGP. He might went over the ravine in WRC and crash on MotoGP. This is just my opinions.. :) [/QUOTE]
