We now have a date for the duel between Alonso and Rossi in a Panda 4x4

The next 10th of January will see the start of Wrooom 2011, the event organised by Marlboro, the sponsoring brand of Ducati and Ferrari that brings together the two houses of the motorsport world in an annual meeting with the media to present the teams.

So for four days the red riders will share moments with fans and the press at the ski resort of Madonna di Campiglio in Italy, where this year we will see Valentino Rossi in red for the first time, undoubtedly a historic moment for the Italian brand.

In addition, expectations have risen sharply since it became known that Fernando Alonso and Rossi were going to face off on four wheels, there is no doubt that a tremendous buzz has been created after the statements they made about each other a few months ago, in which the Italian goaded the Spaniard to compete in F1, MotoGP and Rally; to which Alonso did not respond directly but did state that the training the star of the top category had done at the controls of a Ferrari was of little use.

So we have a rivalry between two motorsport stars, especially in the media, as we keep talking about the duel between Rossi and Alonso at the controls of a Panda 4×4, a training session that already has a date and time: it will be next 14th of January starting at four in the afternoon.

Excitement for these dates without motorcycles and without F1.

We will keep an eye on Ducati and Ferrari.
