Mercedes star Michael Schumacher may have failed to finish the Australian GP on Sunday but the Formula 1 legend saw the positive side of the race regardless.
Schumacher has failed to register a single podium finish since his return to the sport in 2010 but was in the mix for a top three spot before gearbox issues brought his race to a premature end.
The veteran German is now in confident mood ahead of the Malaysian GP on Sunday, with Schumacher 25/1 to win the race with bookmaker.
“After the disappointment of how the first race in Melbourne turned out, I am flying to Malaysia with a big sense of anticipation, because we saw in Australia that our car is capable of putting us in the mix,” explained Schumacher.
