AZURES3 Posted July 29, 2009 Report Share Posted July 29, 2009 Fantastic love him or hate him he can drive like few others. Seeing as the Mclarens & Ferrari cars seem quite well matched and both have KERS Schumacher vs. Hamilton battles could make this F1 season even more exciting. Poor old Kimi will be shown up no doubt but does he care anymore. AZ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarMad Posted July 29, 2009 Report Share Posted July 29, 2009 Now this really will be interesting, lets see how he does against Kimi and the rest of the field. I bet its a shot in the arm for those developing the car as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillBlank Posted July 29, 2009 Report Share Posted July 29, 2009 He'll either be midfield or make Kimi look REALLY stupid. I'm hoping for the latter . Spa and Monza are going to be interesting. Bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cupramax Posted July 29, 2009 Report Share Posted July 29, 2009 Despite hating Schumi during his racing days for his arrogance I seriously cant wait for the European grand prix, Hamilton vs Herr Michael could end up in a pileup :D He's only got 3 weeks to get himself in shape though...

Woppum Posted July 29, 2009 Report Share Posted July 29, 2009 he has been out the game for a while now, however doubt he would be back unless he thought he would have a chance. A great year of F1, a greater year now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teacake Posted July 29, 2009 Report Share Posted July 29, 2009 Despite all the speculation, I didn't seriously expect that to happen. This could be really good. Let's hope he can get up to race fitness and then, as others have said, we can see how he does against Kimi and Lewis. There are going to be so many opportunities for me and byron13 to have arguments for the rest of the season... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AudiPartner Posted July 29, 2009 Report Share Posted July 29, 2009 he has been out the game for a while now, however doubt he would be back unless he thought he would have a chance. My sentiments exactly. He wouldn't risk mugging himself up would he? Hope not. Sweet. Over 3 weeks to wait though.... Just think, by the time I've got over that excitement, I'll only have two months left on the one wheel drive! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cupramax Posted July 29, 2009 Report Share Posted July 29, 2009 Google mr schumacher at 40 he has stayed very fit he wouldnt put himself up for it without the desire either.AZ I dont doubt that, he was absolutely awsome round the TG track and doing the Stig bit proved he has got a sense of humour, raised my opinion of him no end. Also the interview he did with EJ & DC a couple of weeks back at the German GP was quite amusing. The ribbing between him and DC re the rear shunt in the rain had me in stitches...

byron13 Posted July 29, 2009 Report Share Posted July 29, 2009 :p:p Ya ya ya - Glad to be wrong, actually raised my estimation of him as it's obviously not the best car (despite last weeks podium) and don't forget he is not even allowed to drive the car before next race practise 1!!!

Mollox Posted July 29, 2009 Report Share Posted July 29, 2009 Awesome! Was always going to happen in my mind. You can bet your life Bernie was offering Ferrari ANYTHING to get Schumi back into a car and inject some life into F1 after the battering its taken lately. You'd expect the mechanics to be working overtime to give him a better car to play with and - my - its going to be some race Get well soon Felipe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted July 30, 2009 Report Share Posted July 30, 2009 As much as I am pleased to see him back, i wonder how much of his own press he is taking in.. Don't forget that Ferrari had the best team, best car and best strategist for over 10 years whilst he was there. He had the team beat to every request of his.. things won't be the same and come backs are often limited and dissapointing. i hope it doesn't pan out like that, but I don't think he'll come back and wipe the board.

Mollox Posted July 30, 2009 Report Share Posted July 30, 2009 Not sure the car's good enough Dave, as you say. Still, I reckon he'll get 110% out of it, be faster than Kimi and at least make it a genuine spectacle well worth watching - if only for nostalgic reasons Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VTEC_Killer Posted July 30, 2009 Report Share Posted July 30, 2009 Apprently he can't test the current car but can do unlimited testing on last years cars - I think as he hasn't been 'officially' confirmed; Ferrari will give him some testing days on last years car with the current slick tyres and KERS over the coming weeks to get him up to speed! It's a good job (for Ferrari) this has all happened in the 3 week break and not in between a back-to-back weekend! So looking forward to Valencia . . . . . . . . Fernando who?

SeanKHotay Posted August 1, 2009 Report Share Posted August 1, 2009 Who is this Schumacher carpetbagger? All I can find on this bloke is the ham-handed tries he's had on two wheels, mostly ending in crashes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There speaks someone who's never tried being competitive on two wheels. It's harder than it looks sonny. Can't stand the cheating kraut but he's pretty handy on a bike.

CarMad Posted August 4, 2009 Report Share Posted August 4, 2009 Well he isn't going to get a drive before the Friday practice. It seems that Williams and Redbull blocked his test. Mind you Ferrari have gone to its default trick and fired this back to Williams, not the best way to do it, Ferrari has had its lean times as well but I guess they forget that. autosport.com - F1 News: Ferrari slates Williams over test block Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
