35,000 fans attend the Valencia testsA record 35,000 spectators turned up today to watch
Fernando Alonso and drivers of nine other teams testing.
Managers of the Ricardo Tormo at Cheste, near the eastern city of Valencia, said they had never seen such a crowd for
Formula One testing.
"Never in history have there been so many people for Formula One tests," said circuit manager Julio Garcia, according to the website of the newspaper El Mundo.
It was the second day of tests of the new Renault R28 of Alonso, who won back-to-back world championships with the French team in 2005 and 2006 and came close last year with McLaren.
