Mugello, 16th September
Circuit: Autodromo del Mugello, 5.250 km. Drivers: Michael Schumacher, F 300 chassis number 186 Eddie Irvine, F 300 chassis number 183. Weather: air temp. 18-22 C, track 20 -35 C, sunny with clouds. This was the second day of testing for Scuderia Ferrari-Marlboro in preparation for the Luxembourg Grand Prix, to be held on Sunday 27th September at the Nurburgring track.
