In 2006, Valentino Rossi agreed to test drive Team Scuderia Ferrari's Formula One car.

On the second day of testing, Rossi emerged the 9th fastest on the grid and was just a fraction of a second behind 7-time World Champion Michael Schumacher.

Rossi, who has achieved so many laurels on two wheels, proved that he is no pushover holding the steering wheel either. His practice times were better than even seasoned Formula One drivers like David Coulthard and Mark Webber.
