MELBOURNE, Australia (AP) Almost a full season out of Formula One racing didn't dull Takuma Sato's appetite for the sport, or his sense of adventure.
The Japanese driver had a wild spin in the second free practice session for the season-opening Australian Grand Prix, but ended the day feeling confident heading into the 2004 season.
Sato, 27, who has replaced former world champion Jacques Villeneuve at BAR Honda, was 12th quickest after Friday's opening sessions.
