Schumacher: Podium out of reach

Michael Schumacher insists that Mercedes does not have the pace to challenge for a podium finish in the European Grand Prix despite setting the fourth fastest time during Friday practice. Schumacher, whose best lap was 0.347 seconds off pace-setter Fernando Alonso's Ferrari, believes that only luck would allow the MGP W02 to finish in the top three. He added that although the car's single-lap speed was good, he is less confident about tyre degradation over race runs.
