Schu looks forward to celebrating in style with home fans

FERRARI'S Michael Schumacher, his record-equalling fifth Formula One title secured, can celebrate before his home fans with another landmark win at Hockenheim on Sunday.

The German, who matched the late Argentine Juan Manuel Fangio’s five championships with his 61st career win in France last Sunday, is already the most successful driver in grand prix history. He now needs just one more victory to equal the record of nine in a single season that he holds jointly with Britain’s Nigel Mansell.

The pressure is off and for the first time in his career Schumacher will be appearing at home before his raucous army of supporters with the title won.
