Just got this off the Italian press : "I did not see Valentino since Sunday. We have not talked about the offer from Montezemolo[1]," said Valentino's father to the Gazzetta dello Sport. "Of course it is a fascinating offer because it is not only to drive an F1 car, it is to drive a Ferrari F1 car ! Despite that, I already told Valentino before that he can only do that once he stops moto. I think that a serious test should be done over a period of three months and at least 10,000 km. It is not something that you can improvise, especially when you are already involved in another sport. First he should decide to stop moto before going into such an experience. It could happen in a few years..." However, Graziano doesn't seem to have a strong influence on his son. "I advised him to stay at Honda [2] and sign the contract that they offered him but my advice had little influence on him..." concluded Valentino's father. [1] Montezemolo is the CEO of Ferrari SpA [2] I agree,as much as i would like him at another team,i would rather him smash every record ever and his best chance is to stay put where he is,nice easy ride eh mick?
