Montoya aiming to put skids under Ferrari

FIERY Williams star Juan Pablo Montoya begins a season of reckoning this morning when practice for the Australian Grand Prix clicks into gear at Albert Park.

The Colombian was hailed as the man most likely to post a consistent challenge to Michael Schumacher after joining Formula One from CART in 2001.

But in 34 races, the 27-year-old has managed just one victory to date, and he failed to win at all throughout a disappointing campaign in 2002.
