Prost Tests the Maserati
A very big scoop for Dailysportscar.com with the news that Four-time F1 World Champion tested the MC12 Maserati GT car at Fiorano yesterday. It was wet, there were no times, but interesting to hear he has been behind the wheel of modern machinery again.
Nice one DSC! |

I read this on turbotv.be. It seems Prost did some 50 laps. He was invited by Todt to do this.

Apparently Alain is testing again tommorrow as he wants to get some more laps in, especially in dry conditions. Was there not a rumour last year about Alain and a Ferrari project in Fia Gt?

Prost declared that he was just in for a friendly meeting with Todt.
But what a coup !  Quote:
I have to admit that I'd like to see this guy on the LM track. But I don't think he appreciates the track and the race ; Jacques Lafitte don't like it more, and some other famous french drivers consider that LM is boring and dangerous  Check : Infocourse is now mentionning that Prost did a SECOND test in the car, on dry track...

There has to be more to this than just driving it for fun. That could have been viable if he had tested for just one day, but to run the car for two or maybe three days - there must be more to it. He is either looking for a drive or looking to buy the MC12 to set up his own team.

Well, Autosport reports that ORECA want to run a Maserati. Prost drives in the Trophee Andros for ORECA. A case of joining the dots?
