Barcelona, May 07: Schumacher has won the first four races of the Formula One season and can equal Briton Nigel Mansell's 1992 record start to a championship of five straight wins on Sunday, but the German admitted it will be tough to achieve.
“I think it will be very tough, but not impossible," Schumacher said.
The German still has some way to go before he equals Italian Alberto Ascari's 1952-53 record of nine wins in a row. Schumacher's best is six consecutive victories in 2000-2001.
Ferrari have won the last seven races and were last beaten at the Hungarian Grand Prix in August 2003, when Spaniard Fernando Alonso finished first for Renault.
