Schumi entertains at Nurburgring


Seven-time World Champion Michael Schumacher took part in Ferrari's 'Racing Days 2006' event on Sunday at Nurburgring. The German entertained the crowd of 35,000 with a series of laps in Ferrari's latest road beast - the Ferrari 599 GTB Fiorano - and rounded the demonstration off with a run in the F2005 itself, in which he lit up the event with some race starts, donuts and quick laps.

The event included displays of historic Ferrari F1 cars and around sixty road cars. Schumacher also showed off his very own FXX, which has been built for research and development purposes.

"It's an honour for me to take part in the programme," said Schumacher, "especially as it allows for an interesting exchange of technical information.

"The atmosphere of the Ferrari Racing Days is incredible with so many fans. I am very happy to be here," he concluded.
