March: Third and final day of testing this week for Scuderia Ferrari Marlboro. Today, Michael Schumacher made his debut
at the wheel of the F2005. The World Champion completed a total of 81 laps, (one on the short version of the track,) setting a best
time of 1’21”233.
“It’s always great to drive a new car and today that applied even more so, after how things went in
Malaysia last weekend,” commented Michael at the end of the day. “What I can say after the first day of testing is that the
F2005 seems to be a good step forward compared to what we had before.”
