Scuderia Ferrari's First Visit to the Moscow City

This past Sunday, Russia’s capital city hosted the annual Moscow City Racing event. It was the fourth time in a row that the racing show was organized in Moscow and the first to feature the Ferrari Formula 1 team.

After the press conference, Scuderia Ferrari test driver Giancarlo Fisichella first drove a California in the usual parade, and then last year’s F10 Formula 1 car on the streets of Russian capital.

Fisichella had this to say about the experience of driving a Formula 1 car by the Kremlin walls:

“The organizers have done an amazing job to lay out such an interesting course, which I definitely found more interesting than previous ones of this type that I have driven. You had to be very careful, because the water made the urban streets slippery, but it was really exciting to feel the enthusiasm of the fans as I was driving and they were not put off by the rain, packing the viewing areas around the track.”
