NEWS STORY
05/08/2004

Following the news that Ralf Schumacher is to miss the Hungarian GP, as he recovers from injuries sustained in his crash at Indianapolis, WilliamsF1 has confirmed that Antonio Pizzonia will partner Juan Pablo Montoya next weekend.

"I am obviously very pleased to be racing again," said the Brazilian today, "and I thank the team for trusting me again.

"I went back to Brazil after the German Grand Prix to see my family and friends and had really a good time. In Manaus," he continued. "I trained a lot in the heat, usually at lunchtime, when the temperature goes up to 35°C, in order to prepare for Hungary's hot weather conditions. I feel fit and am looking forward to hopefully scoring some more points for the team.

"I like the Hungaroring," he added, "as it's quite a different track from the rest of the Formula One circuits. It's a bit tricky, with a lot of slow speed corners, and is extremely dirty, mostly on Friday and Saturday. Budapest is a great city so, all in all, I am really looking forward to the next Grand Prix."

The team revealed that Ralf will also miss the Belgian GP, but wouldn't say who will replace him.
