"I am not sad to lose the world title after all this time. It is more that I
look forward to next year and to fight again next year, and hopefully I will be

Adding to Ferrari's problems by the end of the season was the decision by
long-term sponsor Vodafone to withdraw from their 23-million-pound-a-year deal

The 2006 season gets under way in Bahrain on March 12 with 10 teams entered
but no place for the proposed Super Aguri team who had planned to make their bow
in the championship.
However, when the start list was announced three weeks ago, the Japanese team
were absent.
