MONZA, Italy: South African Jody Scheckter took a quick trip down memory lane on Friday by powering his 1979 Ferrari around the fearsomely fast Monza circuit where he won the Formula One world championship four decades ago.

"If they can get the little bits and pieces together, they can win the championship ," said Scheckter, who won three races in his title year and retired in 1980.
