Schumi in Spain


Michael Schumacher told the press at the Spanish Grand Prix that he is happy to be involved with the Ferrari team still. He is glad to see that his 'friends' are doing so well and is enjoying his observatory role whilst always being on call for the team when it seeks his input.

"I help in any way I can. As far as team briefings are concerned I'm there when they need me," Schumacher said.

When asked if he was looking at drivers he answered: "No, I'm more looking at the team structure, what's going on inside the team. They are doing incredibly well, the re-structuring has been very good. I'm happy to see the way things are going. I was part of the team for such a long time that you make so many friends. Therefore, I'm happy that we as a team are doing well."

The German hinted that he would be interested in a more involved role with the team by saying he misses seeing his ex-colleagues more often.

"The difference is certainly very obvious. It is an interesting experience to not wake up every morning and be thinking about driving. It's exciting watching the races. I hang around talking to the team after tests but you do wish that you could spend more time with the guys."
