Monday, January 14 Champ tests at private track Reuters MARANELLO, Italy -- Michael Schumacher stepped back inside a Formula One car for the first time this year and set a lap record at the Italian team's private test track. Ferrari said the world champion drove last season's F2001 at Fiorano, testing new experimental components. The German, who had not been expected back in action until Valencia in Spain at the end of the week, had a six hour session and completed 69 laps with a fastest time of 58.783 seconds. McLaren's David Coulthard, runner-up to Schumacher in the championship in 2001, was fastest in Valencia on a day when only Michelin-equipped teams were running. Colombian Juan Pablo Montoya was second fastest in a Williams on a track deliberately soaked by the French tire maker to test wet weather tires. |
