No, I suspect he may have found that he was not on the pace when he had his run last year in the ferrari.

I dont think he has the same vanity/ego problems Mansell and Villenerve had.

Didn't it say Schumacher had left Ferrari, as Alonso doesn't like him.

Its all starting to fit

anyone who doesn't pose a threat Peter..... fairly tough to find in the F1 paddock one would imagine. Cheating, racist, overblown, undertalented, big headed pr1ck. 

The sooner he is banned and left to rot with Briatore, the better in my opinion....

Both Schumacher and Raikkonen have been linked to this drive, and it will probably end up being Heidfeld.  Schumacher still has a contract with Ferrari, even if he's no longer an advisor to the F1 team.  Can't see Fiat releasing him to go work for Mercedes.  And doesn't he have a screwed up neck?  Schumacher needs to go back to crashing motorcyles...

That'll give Jean Todt a direct line in to Mercedes, as well as Ferrari.

The creepy fingers of Ferrari control slip even deeper in to F1...

Got to admit I didn't see Ferrari going for this, but where there's enough money, there's a way to get it done.  Hmmm, Schumacher's back in the sport?  Give's me a even better reason not to give a rats ass about F1 this coming season.

I'm quite looking forward to it. Brawn had some luck this year thanks to Honda and I expect them to be found out in due course. These comebacks rarely go well, see Nigel's fat arse for details, and whilst I found Schumacher an unpleasant individual, he can't half pedal a barge. It will be fun seeing all this, plus the massive budgets, sponsorship pull-outs, new half-arsed teams and the withdrawal of the manufacturers, come along together. 'Appy days  Smiley

Should be interesting. I can't see Nico being overawed by him. And i don't think he will get away with the swerving across the track in front of other drivers now he no longer has the backing of Ferrari International Assistance.

I'm with you landman, YAWN!  I've tried, I've really tried to find something exciting and redeeming about F1 in recent years, especially since Schumacher's retirement, but I've given up.  It's absolute crap, spoon fed to unsuspecting consumers by Bernie.  I used to care enough to actually be mad about the way GP racing has evolved, but I can't even be bothered anymore.  Apathy is a good to describe it.
RIP F1, you were once the most majestic sport on the planet.
