The encounter brought together two Champions from two different racing disciplines: MotoGP rider Jorge Lorenzo and the Formula One World Championship winning F1 W05 Hybrid from the 2014 season.

Only the fourth MotoGP World Champion in history to have been invited to try out a Formula One car, the 29-year-old Spaniard quickly adapted to the Silver Arrow and impressed the team’s engineers with his commitment and speed.
