Ferrari and McLaren dominated yesterday’s testing session again. Lewis Hamilton was 0.043 seconds faster than Ferrari’s Kimi Raikkonen, while seven-time World Champion Michael Schumacher managed third place, marginally slower than Raikkonen.

Michael Schumacher has proved he remains the fastest man in F1. After topping the timesheets on Tuesday, after a 13 month break, he continued to set the pace today, beating McLaren’s Pedro De la Rosa by 0.4 seconds.

Here is Michael , in a video from the Barcelona test:

Michael Schumacher will test for two days at Barcelona next week. A Ferrari spokesman said it will be half for pleasure and half for technical reasons. Sources say Schumacher, despite earlier saying he did not want to climb aboard an F1 car, was convinced by Jean Todt. He will bring his experience of driving without traction control and electronics to the table. People have already started betting on what his times will be. However, Ferrari is thought to leave the 7 times World Champion without a transponder, therefore rendering his future laptimes confidential.
