The curtain has come down on the twenty first edition of “Wrooom,” the fantastic Philip Morris International event which brought together Scuderia Ferrari, the Ducati team and the specialist Formula 1 and Moto GP media on the beautiful slopes of Madonna di Campiglio.
The final act saw Fernando Alonso do the double in the traditional race on the frozen lake, which also featured the drivers and riders from the two teams and was kicked off by Luca Badoer saying his final farewell after his long career as the Scuderia’s test driver. He drove an F60 fitted with special studded tyres and the Wrooom logo on the engine cover.
The first race in go-karts saw the Spanish driver beat team-mate Felipe Massa and the American Ducati rider, Nicky Hayden. Behind them came the Maranello team’s new test driver, Jules Bianchi, Valentino Rossi and the Ferrari men, Marc Gene and Giancarlo Fisichella. The finishing order was used to set the grid for the second race in Fiat 500s, when Alonso comfortably managed to keep the lead, even when the Safety Car came out with five laps to go, ahead of Hayden and Rossi.
In the closing press meeting this evening comes the celebrations for the ski race held this morning, which saw victory go to Giancarlo Fisichella.
