San Marino GP Facts, Stats and Memoirs

Statistically speaking, just how bad is Ferrari's start to the 2005 season? Why does World Champion Michael Schumacher have reasons to be confident ahead of Imola? Marcel Schot brings the answers to these questions, and more anecdotes on the San Marino Grand Prix

For Ferrari, ten points after three races means it's their worst season start since 1996 when they scored the same number of points in the opening three races. The major talking point obviously are the measly two points Michael Schumacher has accumulated so far. It's the worst three race sequence since the German had three consecutive retirements in France, Austria and Germany in the middle of the 2000 season.

The World Champion is poised to reclaim his throne and looking at his history in Imola, he has all the reasons to be confident. Schumacher has won five of the last six San Marino Grands Prix, only beaten by his brother in 2001.
