Fernando Alonso will be doing the driving when Ferrari’s new car for 2011 makes its track debut early next month.
That is the claim of the Spanish sports newspaper Marca, adding that the single seater will be launched on a day between January 25 to 29 at the team’s Maranello headquarters.
When pre-season testing then kicks off at Valencia’s Cheste circuit a few days later, 2010 championship runner-up Alonso will be at the wheel on February 1 and 2, Spanish radio Cadena COPE also reported.
After Valencia, more F1 group tests are scheduled in February at the Jerez and Barcelona circuits, before the circus moves to Bahrain in March for the final test and the 2011 season opener.
