NEWS STORY

Happy and relaxed at his favourite circuit, a short distance from his home town of Kerpen, Michael Schumacher faced the press in a meeting at the Ferrari media motorhome this afternoon.

On the Belgian track, which the German has made his own with five wins at Spa, he was asked to recall his first ever F1 win, here at this track back in 1992, when he was driving for Benetton. "I clearly remember that the reason I won was partly due to my team-mate Martin Brundle," recalled the five times world champion.

"I had made a mistake at Stavelot and he passed me. I saw his tyres were in bad shape so I decided to pit for new ones. Then, on new tyres, I was able to build up a lead and win. It was one of my best days. It was the start of something, but at the time I had no idea where it would end. As for Spa, it is fair to say my relationship with this track is a love story. Along with Suzuka it is the best in the world. In fact, I call it my living room!"
