Love him or hate him, he is naturally gifted behind the wheel.
Personally I like him and I hope that he does well. How cool would it be if he stuck the ferrari on pole for that first race. Some story that would be!  ;D

Problem is I want Jenson to win the title so don't want Schumi doing too well!  :y

I detest schumacher,I thought we had seen the last of him,having said that he was very quick and probably still will be.
I dont think Raikkonen will be happy about it as he made it very clear that he had wouldnt p!$$ on him if he were on fire.

Cant stand either of them as drivers.

I really hope both braun and McLaren and even Red Bull do better than Ferrari at the moment.

this season's f1 is just getting better and better and better *unless your name is felipe massa*... can't wait for the next race... michael schumacher will replace massa in the ferrari team for "at least" the rest of the season. confirmed on schumacher's own website too! what a great season this is turning out to be!

I think this is brilliant news.......it will through a massive spanner into the works for Button and Hamilton always said he wishes he had the chance to race Schumacher.......

Wasnt a fan of Schumi when he was racing, as arch enemy of Damon Hill, but I have grown to like him and think he will kick arse again in F1

Brought new life to an already exciting season......!!!

Only downer is that I am away in Moscow for the weekend on 22-23rd August so will miss the bloody Valencia GP.........!!!!

Personally I can't stand the bloke... I don't like the way he works either, with rule breaking as and when it suits >:( >:( >:(

That said, it will make the rest of the season more interesting, which can only be a good thing for F1 :y :y

i hate the bloke and the team he is/was driving for .I can't forgive him, his team and the FIA  for what he did to Damon Hill in 1995 i think it was . I  wonder how much of a part Bernie whats his name played in his return

To be honest mate I expect he had very very little to do with this one at all.

It would appear it was Schumacher who made himself available to Ferrari in light of the loyalty he has to the team and the friendship he has with Massa

your more than likely right ,I just really ,really dislike the bloke.
Granted the man can drive ,dangerous driving a pram i think Williams said about him and the way he drove at Le Mans a while back was a pleasure to watch. I just think him and his team got away with a hell of a lot

Dont know how many points Massa has so far, does Shuey get these or does he start from scratch on the points?
Title: Re: Michael (not Jackson) returns!
Post by: 924boy on 29 July 2009, 20:00:35
he'll start from scratch on the points, but ferrari keep all the the constructors points (not that theres many)!

I wan't Button to win the title but would love to see Schuey put it on pole and win the next couple of races just to silence the doubters. Besides aslong as button keeps finshing in the points preferably above the redbull drivers he will win I don't think anyone else will be close enough specially if Schuey and Hamilton start a battle for wins(Which I hope Schuey wins).

So far this has been the best season for a long time and I'm looking forward to the rest of it even more now.

Whatever you think of Schumi, he's at the top end of F1's best ever drivers. I used to hate him and admire him at the same time when he was racing.
Looking forward to see how he gets on against young'uns like Hamilton (now that he's got a decent car under him again) and Vettel. :y :y

I'm like you Bob, liked him and loathed him.  Especially when he twists the rules to suit his own arguements and disagreements.

Does anyone know what happened to the Stewards Inquiry about Raikkonen after the last race?  I presume he was cleared of breaking Sutil's car?

Just the re-run of the race the afternoon.  Didnt realise till today there is no more in race refueling from 2010.  that will slow them down abit. :-/

he says he will race for as long as massa is un-availabe. but what happens if massa cant return to f1 because of the damage to his eye. does that mean shuey will return full time to f1  :-/ :-/ :-/
