Just a couple of months after Michael Schumacher cancelled his comeback to replace Felipe Massa because of a neck injury, there is a lot of sources suggesting he could be back next season driving in the now Mercedes GP team.
After Mercedes had bought Brawn GP, it was made clear that Jenson Button was not wanted and a German driver partnership was wanted, early indication was that Nico Rosberg and Nick Heidfeld were lined up to join the team as the drivers for next season.
But after days of speculation, the story is developing that the 7 time F1 World Champion Michael Schumacher could be returning to F1 in a Mercedes GP in the 2010 season, reports say he had recently signed a new deal with Ferrari, but it did not involve F1, it was more of a Ferrari Road Car testing contract.
This story is sure to develop in the next few days...

:ps: Wrote the small story by myself from what I read in the news today. :razz:

your sig is hilarious, well I mean that guy is hilarious.
Okay, lets go back to topic...
I have nothing to say -_-
-
They have already spoken about this topic
They said he's going to replace Felipe Masa ;)
He was great and left suddenly It would be great to see him race again

That news is old about him replacing Felipe Massa, I just referred to it to start off the topic, I am talking about the latest news.
-
wasnt he supose to replace masa till his injuries healed and didnt they say he had too bad neck and eyes and due to eye problems he wont drive again?
-
I would like to see Schumacher return to F1 again but i hope Raikkonen will get a contract with some team for 2010 season. My favorite driver :(

Michael Schumacher has always been my favourite driver, but I am also sad to see that Raikkonen has not got a team for next season currently, maybe he and Schumacher could partner at Mercedes GP! :D
-
I thought he said he is not going to come back :roll:
-
I have stopped watching F1 after Schumacher's resignation because it simply got boring.. I'll be happy to see him again if he returns.
-
I believe he will NOT come back to the 2010 Championships,
Reason Being is He has a contract also with Top gear as 'the stig'

I doubt he was the Stig...

guys what about new no reffil rule? what are your opinions?
my personal one is that new cars will have huge tanks,soon we will have a crash soon we will have new nikki lauda.. rules will change again...

In my opinion this will take some excitement out of the racing of this year because whatever happens in F1, controversy, overtaking, it all gives Formula 1 the excitement.
-
more fuel = napalm bombs on wheels, i just hope none will live what Niki lived...

On the contrary. Now most drivers will not overtake others due to pit stops. With less stops, strategy will play a less important role and drivers will have to overtake more.
As for Schumi coming back, it would not be a good decision. First of all the current cars are no where near what he was used to, and as 2009 showed not many drivers could handle a car without a lot of testing.
Secondly, he has nothing to gain except money. If he wins people will point as Mercedes and Ross Brawn. If he loses people will tell they knew he was never that good...
-
Anyway he is no longer fit for F1 so i doubt there will be anything of it..
-
anways with all team changes next year should be interesting
-
Haven't heard anything about Mike in a while. Let's wait and see
-
The only thing I know that it's gonna be carnage at the start next season with all those news guys/cars on the grid :D
-

He is actually fit enough, his neck injury was only one that would take time to heal, by the start of the season, he could be in perfect shape.
-
I recall reading that he was the Stig?

2010 grid:
McLaren-Mercedes : Hamilton - Button (Hamilton - Kovalainen)
Ferrari : Alonso - Massa (Raikkonen - Massa)
Williams : Hulkenberg - Barrichello (Rosberg - Nakajima)
Renault : Kubica - TBA (Alonso - Grosjean)
Red Bull : Vettel - Webber (?) (Vettel - Webber)
Toro Rosso : Buemi - TBA (Buemi - Bourdais/Algersuari)
Force India : TBA - TBA (Sutil - Fisichella/Liuzzi)
Mercedes : TBA - TBA (Button - Barrichello)
New:
USF1 : TBA - TBA
Campos : Senna - TBA
Lotus : TBA - TBA
Manor : Glock - TBA
Sauber : TBA - TBA
Retired :
Toyota (Glock/Kobayashi - Trulli)
BMW (Kubica - Heidfeld)
Current F1 drivers looking for a seat:
Kovalainen - ?
Raikkonen (will do WRC in 2010)
Rosberg - Mercedes ?
Nakajima - ?
Grosjean - Renault ?
Heidfeld - Mercedes ?
Algersuari - Toro Rosso/Campos ?
Bourdais - USF1 ?
Sutil - Force India / Mercedes ?
Fisichella - ?
Liuzzi - ?
Trulli - ?
Kobayashi - ?
There are going to be some new faces, and surprisingly there will be one team that will keep both their racing drivers (though not yet confirmed), unlike most of the years before.
I would like to see Sutil at Mercedes, in the F3 he was team mate of Hamilton and on just a little slower, many times because of team orders.
Also I hope that Kobayashi will find a seat. In the two races he drove he was spectacular, did not make too many mistakes and seemed to be the only driver who could step in to the 2009 car and be just as fast as his team mate.
2010 will be a battle between McLaren, Ferrari and Red Bull. Meredes will suffer from losing both drivers and not having a lot of budget to develop teh 2010 car.
As for the new teams, I do not expect a lot.
Watch Hulkenberg at Williams, I tip him as Mercedes driver for 2011.
-
Rosberg will most likely go to Mercedes GP (Brawn GP) and either team up with Michael Schumacher or Nick Heidfeld.
Sutil I think will stay with Force India.
Fisichella is confirmed as Ferrari's test driver for next season but he may be loaned out to another team.
As for the battle for the titles next season, I think it will be the closest ever season challanging, with Mercedes, McLaren, Ferrari, Redbull all challanging for the drivers and constructors title, if Michael Schumacher is to come back, it would be very intresting for the title battle, because then you will have Schumacher, his team mate in Mercedes, Hamilton, Button, Alonso, Massa, Webber and Vettel all challanging for a title.
I doubt Michael Schumacher would damage his reputation driving for a team with a below par car for next season.

I recall reading that he was the Stig?
He was on the Top Gear show dressed up as the Stig, taking off his helmet in the studio... But who knows...
-
I believe he will NOT come back to the 2010 Championships,

flaming removed!
At the end he drove, and Clarkson said " Well it looks like he wasnt the stig after all! "
Its probably Ben Collins.
---
He's gonna come back and be SHIT or come back and get killed.
Simple As.
No flaming!
-GiacJr
-
Its official, he is coming back to F1 to drive for Mercedes GP Petronas Formula One team. :D :D
-
Yay! A great season is coming!
-
Yay! A great season is coming!
I cannot wait, this will be very exciting, I am also very happy to hear that he has signed a 3-Year contract, so he won't be just back for one season. :D :D :D
-

He has an one year contract, with the possibility of a further two years extension.
-
I see Mercedes Sauber GP failing, and Schumi returning to Ferrari, to replace Alonso in 2011 :D
-

Ross Brawn said in a interview with BBC Sport yesturday that it is a 3-year contract.
I see Mercedes Sauber GP failing, and Schumi returning to Ferrari, to replace Alonso in 2011 :D
You mean Mercedes GP Petronas, Sauber is a different team, which was BMW Sauber before.
-
Oh yes :hit:
-
So at the moment Michael Schumacher says that the Mercedes GP car isn't as fast as they hoped, but he thinks as the season goes on it will become a race winning car.
This F1 season will certainly be very exciting and I cannot wait till it begins. :D
