August News 2003     Tuesday August 19, 2003 Michael training with Juventus Michael took part in a training session  famous Italian soccer team.  "It was  more  than  just  a bit  of fun,"  said  Michael. "I  went through a complete training session with the players. The  idea  of  doing  this  has  been  around  for a while, but for one reason or  another,  up  until  last  Saturday, it never happened. "It's  well  known  that  I love playing football, so I was not going to let the  opportunity pass me by. It was also a way of mixing business  with  pleasure, as not only was training with Juventus  great fun,  it  was  also  a  good  physical  workout for  my racing.  In a way, it was integrated into the intensive training programme I have undertaken in the past two weeks." The  trip  to Turin  was  also  the opportunity for a motorbike ride with a few friends,  having spent the previous days with his family.  Making  the  most  of  the  good weather, Michael and  Corinna  enjoyed  themselves  with  their  children. "We  didn't  do  anything  special,  we were just all together. Now,  I feel  my  batteries  are  fully  recharged. I am ready for Hungary, a race which is obviously full of good memories for me,  not  just  because  I  won the title there in 2001, but also because of a great win there in 1998."
