Happy Easter!  
   
 
Schumi quickest  
  Yesterday, at the third day of testing in Barcelona, Michael Schumacher was behind the wheel of the F2004. The day was disturbed by continious raining. But Schumacher did drive 51 laps, and was with 1.23.764 a lot quicker then everybody else! The second time was driven by Fernando Alonso in his Renault, but he was almost 1.9 seconds slower; 1.25.650. He only drove 40 laps. Third of the day was Rubens Barrichellow with 1.26.923, due to mechanical problems he could only drive 29 laps. In total 15 drivers were testing yesterday and Ralf Schumacher in his Williams drove the most laps; 62. But with his time 1.27.028 he didn't came further than place 8.

Testing at Barcelona  
  Yesterday Luca Badoer started testing at Barcelona. He wasn't the fastest then, but did some important tests. Today he went back to Barcelona and set the third time of the day! He completed 118 laps and his fastest time was 01.14.864. Sato in the BAR was fastest, he did 107 laps and his best time was 01.14.687. Trulli was second in 01.14.702 and dit 76 laps.

And...looking back at the fine that Ferrari received after the Bahrain GP, Ferrari came with a statement. They said that the fine was completly right. The man with the lollypop couldn't see Trulli. Ross Brawn said that there was a mechanic working on the right rear tyre and that was why the lollypol went up to soon. Only because a mechanic who works on the left front tyre saw things going wrong an accident could be avoid.

Rumours: Kimi to Ferrari?  
  Because of the lack of reliablity of the McLaren, Kimi Raikonnen is believed to think about getting to another team...and his thoughts are with Ferrari. Atleast that's the rumour. Kimi still has a contract till the end of 2005, but then he is free to go. Luca de Montezemolo has already said that he thinks that Kimi would be the best replacement for Michael Schumacher if he retires.
Kimi Raikonnen doesn't want to respond to the rumours for now.

Ferrari gets fine, Ralf gets warning  
  Ferrari got a fine of 10.000 dollar for an incident involving car number 2: Rubens Barrichello. After finishing a pitstop the team let Barrichello go right at the same time that Jarno Trulli in his Renault went by. Trulli had to break to avoid an accident. This incident wasn't the fault of Barrichello because he couldn't see it from his car...all drivers rely on the man with the lollypop-stick in front of the car. When he says go: you go!
Ralf Schumacher get's an official warning because of the crash with BAR driver Takumo Sato. When a driver get's three official warnings during a season he will be suspended for 1 race!

And he did it again!!  
  For the third time in a row Michael Schumacher won the GP. This time he was also the first winner of this GP of Bahrain ever! Second was Rubens Barrichello, although he is still under investication by the stewerts because of an incident. He can still get a penalty of 30 seconds. That would set him back to third. The real third driver was Button in his BAR. Montoya was long time third driver but in the last 8 laps he couldn't shift gear anymore. Kimi Raikonnen was the first to leave the race, after only 10 laps the engine blew up. Coulthard also didn't finish, so no points for McLaren!
A great race with a great Ferrari result!! :)further then 10th time, so Raikkonen decided not to set any time and so spare his car and fuel. He will start tomorrow as last.
