Schumi Return

Amen to that!

Kimi, so, Massa Fernando Sebastian is faster than you. Can you confirm you understood that message?

i am sure that Kubica is still under contract

similarly i am sure that BMW will be there at Valencia

they could buy out the contract, but since Ferrari have most likely given up on 2009 it wouldn't really make a lot of sense

Excellent.

Welcome back Schumi

excuse my language, but f*ck yeah!!!!

Woo hoo!!!!!


Kimi and Michael in the same car, i fully expect Kimi to be ahead, but Schumi will get closer as the races go by!

As a diehard Kimi fan, i hope Schumi doesn't come and wipe the floor with him :p


Can't wait till Valencia now, it will all be about Schumi!

Yeah, i love F1

This news brings a bit more spice into this season. MS won't be straight back into the car fastest i dont expect that at all, but give him a race, or maybe even a few practice sessions at Valencia and could we see Kimi getting shown how to race?? =P

A good move by Ferrari, and with the car seemingly more competitive we may see MS getting a podium in 2009, who predicted that one!

OMFG, TOTALLY unexpected, I really didnt think he would. Will be interesting to see what pace he has, Kimi needs to step up so he doesnt look like a n00b if he gets done by schuey! lol

this is amazing news!: D Kimi and Michael in same team and cars, great news to whole F1! I expect Schumi to be in same level when he left out of F1, He did test last year and wasn't lost any of his speed and this year he has been as a consultant for making F60 so he does know the car.

Holy crap!
MS v Kimi at long last will be awesome!! :D :D

oh yeah i forgot about BMW being in F1 for the rest of the season, in the excitement of MS coming back it slipped my mind, thought they were out from today.

RIP Jules, never to be forgotten. #KeepFightingMichael

they probably may as well be, they are hardly going to be rushing any new parts on the car - there is quite a high chance they will score no more points.

I fully expect Schumi to qualify in 6th and finish on 4th.




NOSTRADAMUS

Woah.

Didn't think that'd really happen.

Risky move. It could really confirm MS greatness if he does well. But if he does badly, his opponents will have more ammunition against him. Is this the first car he will drive not designed specifically for him since 1994?

Still though, you gotta respect him for coming back. Be great to see how he measures up against the current generation. And like I say, if he does well, he'll really go up in my evaluation. I think Ferrari are reaching the stage where the car certainly offers him a chance.

BEST

NEWS

EVER!


I think Spain will forget about Nando not being there pretty quick!

i fully expect ferrari to take a monumental upstreak, if anything for schummis technical input.

i always got the impression of kimi being a bit lazy in terms of feedback, i think the schummi factor will either truly break him and his give a $hit attitude, or we will see kimi with the edge he had in the mclaren days.

the only thing is... will schummi share setup data this time round?


Jenson drives it like he owns it; Lewis drives it like he stole it

lol at all those who said no no never this wil lnever happen

tbh i thought alittle the same

all those who wanted to see kimi and lewis v schumi have their wish although kimi has a massive advantage

It's great news, I'm just glad that Ferrari are out of both championships so we'll be seeing a "want to win" attitude from Schumacher.

WOO WOOO WOO WOO WOO WOO WOO WOO WOO WOO WOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Nothing more to add to that

Yep, his goal has to be to try and win a race or two if he can, with no possibility of him being a Championship contender there's less pressure of expectation on him than there would be if he was trying to return for a full season.

When was the last time we had someone older than 40 in F1? lol, that'll be an interesting one. I can guarantee you he'll be the first guy out of the pitlane when Friday practice arrive. Let's not forget all the other drivers (even Buemi from GP2) already know this track and will be up to speed with the layout.

I've got to admit, I never liked Schumacher when he was racing first time around. I properly started getting into F1 around 98, early 2000s and for me, he was the guy who always made racing boring by constantly winning, so in one way I was happy he retired. Now I've had a break from him and seen his more laid back side from biking and top gear I actually can't wait to see him back in F1 again!

Proper excited for Valencia now, and I never thought I'd be saying that a week ago!

Circuit Thermalito

Liverpool Waterfront Circuit (WIP)

Oldest I can think of is Alain Prost - 42? That's off the top of my head though - could be cods-wallop.
