The Brazilian pushed himself and his Williams- Renault to the outer limits in an attempt to contain Schumacher but pushed himself for the last time at Imola. Watching the German through these opening stages of the season presents an eerie reminder of the tormented Ayrton Senna early last year. It is time to play for percentages, much as that would seem to be a game alien to his nature. Emanuel has a tremendous record, and I liked what he said."Sitting together, Lewis and Steward looked and sounded like the perfect team, but the proof is in the fighting.. Michael Schumacher has the opportunity to shore up his defence of the Formula One world championship here this weekend - even if the Spanish Grand Prix is a race he cannot win. "I've found him eager to learn and not the least bit difficult.

He's in a great state of mind."Dressed all in black, Lewis was positively beaming. He has come to regard the loss of his title to McCall as an aberration. "I made a big mistake," he said, "and it made me think a lot about where I was going."So why the delay in replacing Correa with a more practiced tutor? "To have done that immediately would have caused too much hassle," he said "You guys would have made a lot of it It was better to wait and then find the right man. He expects fighters to concentrate fully in periods of exposition, but is not normally inclined to engage them in extra-curricular conversation With Lewis it has been different "We talk about the things I want to see from him," he said. The fact that Lennox likes to play chess tells you something about him He's analytical. Likes to work things out."Steward argues that his tuitive success has created a false impression.

"There is plenty of aggression there," he insisted, "but Lennox wasn't applying it properly. He's such a big guy with, to my mind, the ideal shape for a modern heavyweight - well muscled but not sculpted like Frank Bruno - that he should be able to keep the pressure on."Ask any of the people Lennox has been sparring with - good fighters, not just hired hands - about Lennox's aggression He's aggressive all right, but it has to come out Take control It's a state of mind Boxing is a hard business - you can't play around at it. "But then I knocked him out," Lewis complained.For all Lewis' protests, aggression is one of the things Steward has been working on. The first six rounds against Frank Bruno in defence of the WBC title were offered as an example. "When?" he asked, insisting that the charge was set down clearly. Whatever Correa's limitations, because of a deficiency in attitude, Lewis could be held personally responsible for the loss to McCall.When it was suggested to Lewis that there were occasions when he could have been more aggressive, he bridled immediately.
