Sunday June 1st, 2003

Monaco Grand Prix winner Juan Pablo Montoya denied an Italian newspaper report on Sunday that he was being lined up as World Champion Michael Schumacher's eventual replacement at Ferrari.

"Someone told me to look at the Gazzetta dello Sport and see what's in it," said the Colombian, whose contract expires with Williams in 2004 after he signed a two-year extension last year. "I had a look and I couldn't believe it.

"There's no talk for the moment, to be honest, there is nothing."

Schumacher, chasing a record sixth world title, has a contract with Ferrari to the end of 2004.
