Ferrari Back Schumacher

Dale Calkins

Ferrari fully support Michael Schumacher after his qualifying times were deleted after stopping on the track. Ferrari state that things like this just happen and that the FIA has acted in far to extreme of manner to the event. The following is a statement from the Ferrari team:

"Ferrari notes with great displeasure the decision of the race stewards, which is to delete the times set by Michael Schumacher in qualifying for the Monaco Grand Prix. We totally disagree with it.

Such a decision creates a very serious precedent, ruling out the possibility of driver error. Michael was on his final timed lap and he was trying to put his first place beyond doubt, as could be seen from the fact that his first split time was the best and could have seen him do another very good lap. With no real evidence, the stewards have assumed he is guilty."
