F1 still Friesacher's focus

Patrick Friesacher has admitted that climbing back into a formula one cockpit will 'not be easy.' But the Austrian rookie, who lost his Minardi drive to Robert Doornbos after his sponsorship stream ran dry, revealed that he will probably attend the weekend's Monza race - and maybe also Spa - to sniff out a 2006 opening.

"I am working on finding a cockpit for next year," Patrick said.

"My current focus is on formula one only. My time with the Minardi team was priceless and absolutely necessary to learn everything about the pinnacle of racing."
