Michael Schumacher has finally gotten behind the wheel of the F2005 and immediately after getting out of the car told the journos from Autosport-Atlas and that this was the super-fact, razor-sharp machine that would allow him to renew his crushing domination of F1: “This car has been driven quite a lot, it’s not as if it was brand new and going to leave the garage for the first time.
“The most important thing is that the new car shows that it’s good and it’s fast. And this car did both right away. I had not driven the F2004 here at Mugello, so I can’t really compare the two.”
That’s not exactly overflowing with the usual Schumacher confidence, is it? He might have to work for this one…
