Michael Schumacher will lose ten grid places following today's qualifying sessions, giving his Ferrari teammate a massive boost ahead of tomorrow's race.

The German will use his T-car plus T-car engine for qualifying, after crashing heavily at turn six at Interlagos.

Michael, who was completely unhurt in the accident, seemed surprised and puzzled afterwards, although it seems likely that he was 'caught out' by a bump. Teammate Rubens Barrichello suggested that the world champion's Ferrari had 'bottomed' prior to Schumacher losing control.

Therefore, Schumacher will use a completely unknown car in pre-qualifying when, following his win in the Japanese Grand Prix, he will go out first.
