Michael   "I like Silverstone"
Michael Schumacher is looking forward to the British Grand Prix this weekend, and he reckons it will be a 'real thrill taking on' the Silverstone circuit in the dominant F2004.
Michael said "After a race like the one in France, thinking of the next stage can only be a good thing, even better if it is just a few days away, I think that we can take the enthusiasm of Magny-Cours with us into Silverstone. A team performance like last Sunday's will strengthen us even more."
"Ferrari, as ever, is preparing for the English circuit with its usual attention to detail and motivation. We tested at Silverstone at the beginning of June and were very pleased with the results, The test data is another reason why we should fancy our chances at the weekend."
He added "True; the other teams also have a good chance, In my opinion BAR-Honda could be as strong as they were last weekend. This is why we should never let our success distract us."
"I like Silverstone. It is always enjoyable racing there, It will be tight and the track calls for a balanced set up; something not always easy to get right there."
"I should also add that the real plus of Silverstone is that so many fans come to pay homage to Formula 1. It is a place where sport is really appreciated and for us drivers that's very important. With a car like ours it will be a real thrill taking on a circuit like Silverstone."
