Schumacher calls off his return to F1

Post by Stu-Pot »

What a shame.

Although I have never been the biggest MS fan, it would have been great to see him race in the same car as Kimi, and up against Lewis & the new vunder kid Sebastian Vettel.

Apparently a injury to his neck has ruled him out.

Nothing more to prove in the sport I suppose.

Instead Ferrai will use test driver Luca Badoar. Hasn't raced since '99!!!!!!

Quite understandable for a man who finished at the top of his game. You're only as good as your last game, and failure now could seriously dent what was a fantastic career.

Good on him, now he will still be remembered as the greatest in the sport and doesn't risk becoming another fiasco that is coming out of retirement.

It was an exciting prospect, but if he feels like either he or the car is not competitive then its the right decision. It was a mouthwatering prospect, would love to have seen him blow off Hamilton and Kimi!

Now that would really push the viewing figures up. :naughty:
