RAIN DOMINATES FIRST DAY OF MUGELLO TESTS

Marlboro Yamaha Team riders Carlos Checa and Max Biaggi were due to test at Mugello today but persistent rain meant that Biaggi decided not to go out. Meanwhile teammate Checa took the opportunity to use the latest chassis in the wet having been forced to ride with the old chassis during the rain-soaked Japanese Grand Prix at Suzuka a month ago. Checa stayed out for most of the afternoon. The two-day session continues tomorrow. The team is hoping for better weather but the forecast is not promising.
