Schumi will replace injured Felipe Massa (until he is able to race again) at the helm of Ferrari’s F60 after he passes a fitness test soon. The seven-time champ will replace Massa at the next F1 event in Valencia. We’re declaring comeback of the decade, any thoughts?
“Scuderia Ferrari Marlboro intends to put Michael Schumacher in Felipe Massa’s car until the Brazilian driver will be able to race again,” the team stated.
“Michael Schumacher said he is ready and over the next few days will undertake a specific training programme at the end of which confirmation will be given of his participation in the championship with effect from the European Grand Prix on the 23rd of August.”
EPIC
So pumped. Holy shit. I hope he serves all these young guns a heaping pile of schnitzel.
This should be insane because I don't think Shooey has ever raced without TC...and Valencia is a street circuit. However, IIRC his test/practice/fun lap times around Fiorano were quicker than Kimi or Massa's and he was in their TC-less car.
Er, nevermind I think he has three championships without traction control.
Holy cow..... I thought he was done for good, but I guess guys like him never truly are. To bad he's not racing for Brawn.
I'm gonna be naked and drink watching the race. When I heard the news I pee'd myself with excitement.
Let's hear it for the old guys
