Schumacher breaks record

By: Gary Denvir | Latest Motorsport News | Saturday April 14 2012 6:53

 

Michael Schumacher has rolled back the years in his rejuvenated Mercedes, setting the fastest time in practice for the Chinese Grand Prix.

The seven-times Formula One World Champion clocked one minute 35.973 seconds, as he bids for his first pole position and race victory since sensationally coming out of retirement in 2010.

Britain's Lewis Hamilton was second fastest, just under two tenths of a second behind Schumacher in his McLaren.

Red Bull teammates Sebastien Vettel and Mark Webber rounded out the top four.
