Schumi is back; How do you feel about this?!

[ahmad.alkhalil]

The return of a legendy or an ill advised move?!



Legendary driver Michael Schumacher will return full-time next year to the Formula One circuit, where he won seven championships in the 1990s and this decade. The German, 40, retired after the 2006 season, and attempted a comeback for his former team, Ferrari, after one of its drivers was injured in July. An injury of Schumacher’s own derailed that bid, but he’s now healthy enough that he’s signed on with Mercedes, Bild reports; the season’s first race is March 14 in Bahrain.

All respect to Michael Schumacher, and i think its his decision wether to continue or not, but i kind of feel like its a betrayal to Ferrari; eventhough i never cheered for the Ferrari team!

Maybe i'm being close minded, i mean famous soccer players switch teams all the time! fans seem to be okay with it, why not F1!

Its nice to know that Michael Schumacher is back! :)

dont forget Schumi was at Benetton Renault before Ferrari... so he's changed before

Thing is though... if u left on the top of your game and at the top of the world, why would u risk it? I mean Michael Jordan did it and played with the damn Wizards... that was ABSOLUTE SH!TE!!!

I have mixed emotions about this... lets wait and see!

agree with ahmad, sportsmen like jordan & maradona did the same and were wrong!

but it's a sport & if someone thinks he has to compete again then he has the right to do so, and of course deal with the consequences!

for the fans, this can only be good!

If Im not mistaken, Mercedes has bot Brawn GP rite? if thats case, then again its the winning combo of Schumi and Ross Brawn....

Brawn was with Benetton when Schumi won. Brawn was with Ferrari when Schumi won again. Now Schumi is back with Brawn in Mercedes....

I always cheered for Schumi....but had a soft spot for Ferrari too...When Schumi joined Ferrari it was like a dream come true....a bit disappointed to see that he has left ferrari and is with Mercedes now....

Never liked Mercedes :thumbsdown: :P

He's probably in it for the 'astronomical' money offer more than the love of the game! To these guys, the pros, it's business more than anything.

I think he will still be Schumi and embarrass the young drivers like always...tickets to Bahrain anyone??

[mahmoud_bedewi]

i donot think he will do much with this return, just a feeling

[SSense]

[Nabil]

In for the bahrain trip, if any one is arranging book me without even asking!

BTT: I also have mixed feelings, but I always wanted schumi with Ferrari, the same way im loving the Alonso-Ferrari combo, now i really wish that Alonso can beat schumi, it seems that my hatred to mercedes is even bigger than my love to schumi!

[Ayham]

Their F1 engines are the biggest in terms of torque.....As a competition, they are to be reckoned with, sadly!

[eoudeh]

how about a group drive :dangerous:

mmm...we need to have :shisha: and think seriously of it :bmwflag:

[evo 6.5]
