Schu just loves a dogfight
And that is just what Schumacher expects to encounter this season as he chases an unprecedented seventh world title with the likes of BAR, Renault and Jaguar all showing significant signs of improvement. There had been questions over the 35-year-old's motivation heading into the 2004 season after he became the most successful driver in the history of Formula One with his sixth world championship. However, Schumacher is a speed junkie yesterday he spent the day riding in the Victorian countryside with former motorcycle world champion Mick Doohan as he prepares for this weekend's Australian Grand Prix.
Although he joked about the joys of his stroll to the world title in 2002, the fact that Formula One this year is expected to be so competitive has really got Schumacher's juices flowing.
