The wife was not impressed
When a Formula 1 driver takes his better half for a drive.
Older motorsport fans will certainly remember Riccardo Patrese. The Italian made his Formula 1 debut in 1977 and ended his career in 1993, after deciding he could not compete with his Benetton teammate Michael Schumacher. Until 2008, Patrese held the record for the driver with the most Grand Prix starts (256). Rubens Barrichello then passed him, followed after Schumacher's return in 2010 by Michael Schumacher, who started his 300th race at the 2012 Belgian Grand Prix.
In 2008, Riccardo took his wife for a drive around the Jerez circuit in a Honda Type-R. She was not impressed at all and mentioned polenta and sauce, the children who would miss their mother and a few other things while he was driving… It was entertaining, though.
