Michael  Schumacher  said that his brother could de  great  things,  he  said  his  brother  is  'more advanced  than  I  was  at  his  age.'
Schumacher  told  Focus that he wants Ferrari to be  on  the  podium  consistently: "We  expect  to be in  the  hunt  for  the  title.  It's  not  so  much  a    question  of    becoming  world   champion  as competing  with  the  other  teams  to  get Grands   - Prix  wins."
Schumacher  was  not  at  all  worried  about  the problems  with  the  new  car: "We'll certainly be making  a  few  modifications.  That's  why we're doing  so  many  tests."
Schumacher  added  that  his brother is bound to make some mistakes, like everybody else, but will do well: "But he will get some good results and if all goes well, he could  make a few podiums. He's certainly  more  advanced  than  I  was at his age. He  knows  what  he  wants  and he knows how to get  it  as  he  has  already profited from my own experiences."
