Michael Schumacher is worried about how Ferrari will do at Monza, but remains confident that he can make the podium. Schumacher understands that the Italian Grand Prix will be an important race and he will do all he can for the team at their home race. Here is what the 7-Time World Champion had to say about monza: "If I think about the state in which we find ourselves at Monza this year, and that in which we were last year, there is a huge difference. Last year we knew that we already had both world titles in the bag. This time around we are not in such a fortunate position and the chances of winning the title are remote. Still, it is our home race. Even though our current results are not up to those of the past, we will go into the race with the same spirit and motivation of the past few years and we are certain that our fans will realise this. Is it not the case that our true supporters will stick by us in difficult times? Our fans were very encouraging during last week’s tests I was very pleased at their enthusiasm. We promise to do our best for them this weekend and give our all. After the race in Turkey our expectations were dimmed but we have done better in testing. I think we can get amongst the points and even make the podium. However, it will only be clear once we are on the track on Friday, as we discovered last year, and then we will see how the weekend goes. As I have said, this is a very important race for us and we, by nature, enjoy a good battle." |
