MotoGP champion Valentino Rossi has dared his F1 counterpart, Fernando Alonso, to prove he is quicker.
Last month, Renault's Spaniard warned that switching to four wheels would be 'very difficult' for possible Ferrari racer of the future Rossi, but added that - 'given time to practice' - he himself could ride to a MotoGP podium.
Obviously rankled by the comments, Rossi - the 27-year-old Italian - proposed in Motorcycle News that the pair embark on an ultimate motor sport head-to-head to settle the score once and for all.
“I think we should drive a Formula One car, a World Rally Car and a MotoGP bike,” Rossi said, “add the times together and then we'll see who is faster.”
