Ferrari hint Schumy could extend deal

Michael Schumacher could be set to extend his stay with Ferrari, team boss Jean Todt hinted today.

Already this year Schumacher has won six of the seven Grands Prix held.

The World Champion's current deal is set to end in 2006, but according to a BBC report, Todt has raised the prospect of a new deal.

"Nothing says he can't stay on after 2006, there is still plenty of time," Todt was quoted on the BBC website.

Ferrari has dominated the driver and team championships since the German's arrival.
