Schumacher and Hill crash

Michael Schumacher has wrecked his V-10 Ferrari at a test at the Ferrari home-track at Fiorano (Italy). He slammed his car into a guard-rail on his second lap of the day. He damaged the front and suspension of the Ferrari.
The German later blamed himself for driving too hard on cold tyres on a section of the track still covered in frost. Schumacher escaped from the crash without injuries.

Hill also crashed his car in the tests at Estoril (Portugal). He lost control over his Williams in the long fast and notorious second turn. His right-hand rear wheel took the punch when the car slammed into the barriers. Hill completed just 7 laps and was again outpaced by team-mate Villeneuve. Hill could walk away unhurt.

Frenchman Jean-Christophe Boullion will continue to be the test driver for the Williams team. Williams have confirmed this.
Boullion lost his place with Sauber to Johnny Herbert.
Jean-Christophe will start testing later this week with the team at Estoril (Portugal). "It's important to have continuity at all levels," said team-boss Frank Williams. But why didn't he want to keep Coulthard?
