Todt Hoping to Continue Malaysian Winning Streak
Ferrari's sporting director Jean Todt hopes the Italian squad will be able to continue their successful streak at the Malaysian Grand Prix.
Ferrari's sporting director Jean Todt hopes the Italian squad will be able to continue their successful streak at the Malaysian Grand Prix.
The World Champions have won all three Grands Prix held at the Sepang circuit since the 1999 season, with German Michael Schumacher finishing on top in 2000 and 2001.
After having dominated the season opening Australian Grand Prix, Ferrari are hoping to win again in Malaysia, although Todt reckons the task will not be easy.
"In Malaysia, the Scuderia has a winning way, having finished first in all three editions of the event and we will be looking to continue this tradition, while well aware it will be difficult," said Todt in Malaysia today.
"The Sepang circuit is very interesting. It will be very hot and as usual these days, tyres will play a vital role. We hope that Bridgestone will be able to repeat what it did in Australia, even though the track and temperature conditions will be very different."
After winning in Australia, Ferrari will use their updated F2001 chassis again for this weekend's race.
