F2004 in action at Fiorano
First  day  of  testing  this year  for  Ferrari  at  the  Fiorano circuit.  This  morning  Michael Schumacher  gave  the F2004 its track debut, while Luca Badoer carried out an electronics programme  at  the  wheel of an F2003-GA.
Michael said  "I  am quite happy with the first testing day of our new car.  I immediately  had  a feeling for it. The F2004 was   handling   very   well   straight  out  of the box and we achieved good and consistent lap times.  Personally  I find it nice  to have such good news and see such good mood on the birthday of our president's daughter Maria."
Testing   continues   at   this  track   tomorrow,   again   with Schumacher  and Badoer driving an F2004 and an F2003-GA respectively.
