Formula 1: Schumacher shatters Mansell's lap record

Michael Schumacher shattered Nigel Mansell's lap record as he assumed his usual position at the top of the time-sheets when practice resumed for the French Grand Prix today.

The triple world champion clocked the fastest ever time seen on the Magny-Cours track as he carved just over 0.1 seconds off the mark of one minute 13.8 seconds set by Mansell in 1993.
