Fisichella eyes Imola win

Giancarlo Fisichella has his sights set on winning the San Marino Grand Prix this weekend on his home soil. The Italian lies second in the championship while team mate Alonso leads.

"I'm going to every race this year looking to score maximum points," Fisichella said. "I think Renault has an edge at the moment, so we have to aim for the victory at every Grand Prix. I have a fresh engine, and a bit more power from the new specification, so that gives me a fantastic chance for this race. We are not underestimating our rivals, because we know that the level of competition is very close the front. But I believe we have the package to win in Imola."

"Physically, I am fitter than ever before, and feeling really good at the moment," he added. "And compared to last year, I am in a much better position in the championship: more points, and closer to the lead. So yes, things are looking very good right now."
