I just came home after a night with my wife. My daughter was watching the Olympic opening ceremonies. She said I just miss a Ferrari doing donuts in the stadium.

RATS!

Did anyone see it and get a video of it?

The entire opening for the Olympics was awesome. Although I don't understand the other thread about Badoer. Commentator for dutch TV said it was that motorbike dude Valentino Rossi who was driving the ferrari.

Too bad that he didn't really achieve olympic rings with his donuts.

Does anyone know for certain who was driving the F1 Ferrari - can't find any referece to it on the net.

My source says it was Rossi.

Autosport.com says it was Badoer.

"Turin's Winter Olympics opened with hundreds of dancers drawing spectators on a glitzy trip through Italian history, ending with Luca Badoer in a Ferrari."

Usatoday.com says it was Badoer.

"Race car Luca Badoer drove a Ferrari and did donuts during this segment."

I believe you. Obviously dutch TV was misinformed.
