Schumacher to chase Hockenheim win
Although Michael Schumacher wrapped up his fifth world championship title in Magny-Cours, he is likely to be pushing for victory as hard as ever at Hockenheim this coming weekend
With the French and German Grands Prix beld back-to-back, separated by just a week, Schumacher was back in the paddock almost before he had finished celebrating.
"We had a good party at Magny-Cours which was not pre-organised but which was done well in the end. It started pretty much after the race and lasted until the Monday. It was nice to see the mechanics and engineers enjoying themselves so much. When I first went to Ferrari they were a bit stiff at first - maybe it was natural with the Italian character. But through the years things have changed and this celebration was very special. It was good to see them enjoying it the way they did.
"Once the championship is finished, you just look for each event individually and try to win, especially in Hockenheim when my record is not very good. The race in 1995 was my only win and I'd like to do something about that."
