Schumacher again calls the tune

World Drivers' Champion Michael Schumacher again showed the way as the Ferraris dominated practice ahead of Sunday's season-opening Formula One Grand Prix at Albert Park.

The six-times Champion recorded a fastest lap time of one minute 25.786 seconds on Saturday with teammate Rubens Barrichello second quickest with 1:26.159 - some 0.373sec away.

Williams pair Juan Pablo Montoya and Ralf Schumacher made forward showings in the third practice session so far this weekend with the Colombian driver clocking third-best 1:26.195 and Schumacher's younger brother Ralf next on 1:26.390.

Last year's race winner Scotland's David Coulthard in a McLaren registered the fifth best time in the session of 1:26.428.

Another practice session is due at 1115 AEDT (0015GMT) before qualifying later Saturday to determine starting grid positions for Sunday's race.
