Ferrari engine ‘no problem’

FERRARI’S technical director Ross Brawn says there are no concerns about Michael Schumacher’s engine despite teammate Felipe Massa’s problems in practice for tomorrow’s crucial Chinese Grand Prix.

With Schumacher just two points behind championship leader Fernando Alonso with three races left in the title race, Brawn said Ferrari were partly stripping Massa’s engine to get a clearer picture of the problem although first impressions were positive.

“We need to understand it, because it’s an engine specification that we’ve run a lot of and not had a problem,” he told reporters.
