Schumacher 23rd in German qualifying

By John Hopkins

Seven-time Formula 1 World Champion Michael Schumacher was 23rd after the first day's qualifying for a round of the German Superbike Championship in Oschersleben, according to a Canadian Press report.

Riding a Honda, the 39-year-old was six seconds off the pace of leader Kai-Borre Andresen of Norway with final qualifying set for Saturday.

According to the Canadian Press story, posted on tsn.ca, organizers had tried to enter Schumacher under a false name, Marcel Niederecken, but ended up using his real name for insurance reasons.
