Schumacher Out For Fun But Renault Not Convinced
Michael Schumacher has stated that he wants to have fun in Brazil more than anything else. Michael knows that the Constructors' Championship is very important for his team and he will be working very hard to deliver that title, however he still admits he wants to have fun in his final race: "The boys deserve the title. Whoever is able to turn around a situation like the one we found ourselves in this year, climbing back to the top and working extremely hard and passionately, merits huge respect and they have all my respect. They are the best at what they do and the Constructors' crown would be fully deserved. We are aiming for a one-two, nothing less. This is the only hope we have of taking the Constructors' title and it is all we can do. Everything else is out of our hands. Naturally, I am aware of the fact that, after almost sixteen years, this is my last race. I hope that it will be an exciting race, that way I will take with me the marvellous feeling that only a win can bring. I want to have fun!" Renault Technical Director Bob Bell knows how determined Michael is to win the Brazilian Grand Prix and since Schumacher still has a chance of taking the Drivers' Championship, Bell is certain that Michael will be racing flat out and not just for fun. "Make no mistake, Michael will be racing flat out in Brazil, as always. His hallmark trait is that he never gives up, and that is why he has been testing in Jerez since Japan. And he has an extra reason to be going flat out in Interlagos. This will be the last race of his career, and I am sure he is determined to go out on a high." Michael is not fooling anyone really. He may have already conceded the Championship is lost for him and that he really just wants to have fun in Brazil, but anyone who knows what kind of a racer Schumacher is, also knows that Michael will race flat out and with total determination to win.
