Michael
"We want to win!" |
|

M. Schumacher arrived
at Suzuka having yesterday
taken part in a Bridgestone press
conference. Once at the
track, he again met with
the media.
Michael said “It is one of my favourite
tracks, because it has a mix of demanding corners
and their characteristics make it special. I
like driving here. Apart from requiring very
careful work on the set -
up, talent and driver ability are also
very important and with many of the drivers
having those skills, it will be
a tough race. Last year we did a great job and
I just hope we can repeat that.”
|
| The world
champion was asked therefore what were his goals
for this weekend and above
all, if he still found the racing fun. |
| “Our
aim? It’s very simple –
we want to win! As I have said many times
before, our motivation never
diminishes. As for fun, there are different types.
After taking the title, I really enjoyed Spa for
example and I hope the same
applies here.” |
| Michael
was also asked about the reaction
of the American fans after the United States GP. |
| “It
is not always possible
for everyone to understand our actions,
but in any case we had the support of a lot of
people. Maybe, but that’s not the point.
Two Ferraris finished first
and second and that’s what matters. Rubens
achieved his aim of finishing
second in the Drivers’
classification. Here,
therefore everything is in place for a great race
and I really hope we can give Bridgestone
a win to celebrate their
one hundredth Formula 1 Grand Prix.”
