Schumacher's run of five straight world titles was ended by Alonso last season and Ferrari worked overtime in the offseason to regain its edge.
It looked like it was going to be a close battle when Alonso and Schumacher finished 1-2 in the season-opening Bahrain GP. At the next race though, Renault claimed both of the top spots with Fisichella winning ahead of Alonso and Schumacher sixth.
In Australia three weeks ago, both Ferrari cars crashed and Alonso won again.
The next race is the European GP at Nurburgring in two weeks.
