Schumacher believes wet weather could help Mercedes at Silverstone
Michael Schumacher believes the forecasted wet weather at the British Grand Prix could be a bonus for his team, as he bids for another podium finish.
Fresh from his top three finish in Valencia a fortnight ago, Schumacher believes that likely rain will be a help at Silverstone - with his Mercedes W03 not expected to be particularly well suited to the demands of the Northamptonshire circuit.
"It is certainly an opportunity, that is clear," said Schumacher about the prospect of rain. "It is more an opportunity than having a clear dry race for us.
"If we go back to Malaysia where it was wet, we didn't look too strong, but we understood the reasons for it as much as we understood in Australia in the dry race why we had not been strong. So it will be a good opportunity to prove ourselves ? therefore I welcome a bit of rain at the right moment of time."
