Coulthard fastest |
|
| |
 In the past few days Bridgetone told everybody that they improved the tyres so much that they were very competitive. But after the first training at Silverstone there are only three cars with Bridgetones in the top 10.
Best Ferrari was the one with Barrichello behind the wheel. He became forth, just after Webber (second) and Alonso (third). Michael Schumacher didn't came further then a ninth place. But what to say about the two Williamsen...eleventh and twelfth! And Raikkonen...he ended up as fourteenth.
But this was only friday...the day of testing...of driving with lot's of fuel etc. Let's hope that the Reds are in front tomorrow!! |

Confident for Victory |
|
| |
 Both drivers are very confident about the next Grand Prix. Silverstone is, for Ferrari, always a great track were they good celebrate many victories. Even the first victory that Ferrari ever made was on Silverstone by Froilan Gonzales in 1951 in his 375/F1.
But Silverstone was also the circuit were Michael broke his leg when he made his worst crash ever in 1999. That year the championship was won by Hakkinen, who won only by a few points to Eddie Irvine in his Ferrari!
Let's hope that this weekend will be a great weekend for the guys from Maranello!! |

Rossi to Ferrari? |
|
| |
 When Moto GP-driver Valentino Rossi has any interest in going from two to four wheels, he has not to worry. A couple of F1-teams already said to be happy to give him a seat! Also Ferrari. In the words of Piero Ferrari (who still has 10% of the stocks of Ferrari): "I would love to give him a change in one of our Formula one cars."
Also Paul Stoddart, of the Minardi team, would really like to give him a contact. What Rossi wants? We don't know...but it would be quite interesting to see how fast the 2-wheel champ can go!! |
