Wednesday 18 January 2006
MotoGP
star Max Biaggi will test a MF1 -Toyota Formula 1 car at Silverstone
later today. The flamboyant Italian, known in bike circles
as "The Roman Emperor", has been invited to have
this Formula 1 experience at the 3.1-mile British Grand Prix
and World Superbike venue by MF1 Racing, the Formula One team
owned and operated by the Midland Group.
"I am really excited about driving the Midland F1 car,"
said Biaggi, who is 34 years old. "I must thank everyone
in the team for giving me this opportunity and I look forward
to comparing the thrills of MotoGP and F1."
Biaggi had a seat-fitting with the Silverstone-based team
yesterday and he will take over driving duties from regular
MidlandF1 driver Christijan Albers, who is testing for the
team this morning.
