I think you can avoid spinning an F1 car in the wet if you keep it under
40mph... but then I'm not Biaggi, so I'm not sure about these things.
How 'bout Rossi gives you lessons on how to not crash a MotoGP bike? Or
win MotoGP races? Oh yeah... never mind, he already did that.
I guess this is the sort of attitude that sees him lucky to ride
someone's pit bike.
I notice nobody is listing *Biaggi's* F1 car times anywhere...

I thought his comments were funny. Anyway, I thought I remembered
his F1 times were not too bad. Not as good as Rossi's but hasn't
Rossi driven/tested F1 cars a few times before, just not during an
F1 test with other drivers on the track.
