Michael Schumacher To Race For Ferrari F1 Again

[Musicraft]

Michael Schumacher is to come out of retirement and will race for Ferrari F1 again.

He will replace injured driver Felipe Massa who is steadily improving.

Thanks

This'll be fun! Glad to see his motorcycle accident hasn't affected his fitnesss to race - or is he to be "assessed" prior to racing. Also, given rules on testing will he sit in the race car for the first time on practice day 1?

Should be interesting to see how he fares against his new team mate (who will probably be well pissed off).

Great stuff really looking forward to the next GP now ! Nice also that Hamilton will get his chance to race against Shummy

He'll never have driven it on a track before qualifying at the next GP. Should be fun!

He's older, heavier, slower, so yes it should be interesting.

if he has the best car/plan on the day the 'worst' position he should finish in is 5th

And it's all off!

Curses - I was very much looking forward to this!

Why? I don't think he'd have been anywhere near as good as he was when he was a little younger, lighter, fitter and had a non-cracked neck. IMO all he would've done (apart from making another few millions) is to lower his impressive strike rate. I think it's something like 90 odd wins from 250 starts?
