09 September: Belgian Grand Prix - Friday Practice Report - Ferrari Free practice - First session Free practice � Second session Jean Todt: �Rain was the main story of the day, making it impossible for this afternoon�s free practice to run in the normal way. In the first hour, our two drivers did just one run each when the track was still damp. Therefore it is difficult to know what is the true situation. According to the weather forecast, the next two days could be similar to this afternoon. We will have to wait and see just when the rain will fall and how heavily. It has been a very long time since we have seen a race in the rain. In the past, the Ferrari-Bridgestone package was very competitive on a wet track. Naturally, we hope that is still the case.� Michael Schumacher: �This morning we did not look that competitive, but this afternoon we never got the chance to find out the real situation in terms of how we compare with the others. It was just too wet to go out. I think we would have needed a boat propeller to power our way round the track! The forecast is for more rain and if that is the case on Sunday, I can see us having to start the race behind the Safety Car. Maybe our tifosi have done too good a job with their rain dance!� Rubens Barrichello: �Even though I like driving in the wet, this afternoon there was just too much water on track and it was impossible to drive a Formula 1 car in these conditions. I hope it will not rain as much over the next two days�� Ross Brawn: �We only had one short run in the dry this morning with each of our drivers, when our car seemed reasonably well balanced, apart from a bit too much understeer. We made adjustments to deal with this, but of course we have not been able to check them to see if they have worked or not. Apparently, this mixed weather is what we can expect for the rest of the weekend, so hopefully we will have an opportunity to see how good the Ferrari-Bridgestone package is in the wet.� 2005 Belgian Grand Prix - Main Page Latest Formula 1 News from Ferrari: F2007 the 53rd Ferrari Formula 1 single-seater (14/01/2007)Ferrari F2007 Technical Specifications (14/01/2007) Aldo Costa & Gilles Simon Press Conference (14/01/2007) Kimi Raikkonen Press Conference (14/01/2007) Felipe Massa Press Conference (14/01/2007) Jean Todt Press Conference (14/01/2007) Agreement with Scuderia Toro Rosso (31/10/2006) New structure of Ferrari Gestione Sportiva (26/10/2006) Bahrain Test Notes (15/02/2006) Bahrain Test Notes (14/02/2006) More news from Ferrari F1
