bobbo Posted July 29, 2009 Report Share Posted July 29, 2009 Now that will make f1 even more worth watching, been quite good this year, especially recently as button has had a bit of competition Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pro3mark Posted July 29, 2009 Report Share Posted July 29, 2009 Yeah, heard this on the news, i just hope he has the right car underneath him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simpo Posted July 29, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 29, 2009 I cant believe he is coming back, he left his career on such a high note. If it was me I wouldn't want to jeopardize it, especially as so much has changed.Must have been allot of money changing hands. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Huw Pugh Posted July 29, 2009 Report Share Posted July 29, 2009 I don't think it'l affect his career too much. There's only 6 races left, if he does pants in them it doesn't really matter.However, Ferrari have upped their game recently and I suspect we'll be seeing him on the podium more than once before the end of the season. All he needs to do is take points from Red Bull and I'll be happy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pro3mark Posted July 29, 2009 Report Share Posted July 29, 2009 On the radio they said that the only reserve he has, was that people would expect him to win, and look down on him if he didn't.Under pressure! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IDGM Posted July 30, 2009 Report Share Posted July 30, 2009 If there is no expectation to win from Ferrari fans, I'll do the driving for a 10th of Schumacher's wages. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matt~black Posted July 30, 2009 Report Share Posted July 30, 2009 I'd pay them all my wages to do it not that ferrari gives a **** about my measly salary lol and i wouldn't even be cared about the expectation to win i can live with being a dissapointment for half a season in f1 lolon a serious note it'll be the first time we see hamilton and schumacher on track together Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it was me I wouldn't want to jeopardize it, especially as so much has changed.Must have been allot of money changing hands.I dont think he will jeopardize it, i think hes just doing it as a big fav to ferrari. i doubt he will be there next season.Will he carry on with massas points??

IDGM Posted July 30, 2009 Report Share Posted July 30, 2009 I doubt he'd have trouble reacquainting himself with the controls. He's on the pit lane with a pair of headphones on most races, so he has to be pretty involved in the team already.As for Massa's points, I'd doubt very much that would be allowed, I think this is a constructors championship damage limitation exercise. If they nick points from Red Bull, it should buffer Brawn's position for a little while.All will be revealed in the fullness of time.

It's no doubt quite a bit different to the new car, but better than nothing.I dont think he will jeopardize it, i think hes just doing it as a big fav to ferrari. i doubt he will be there next season.Will he carry on with massas points??Nah he won't carry Massa's points forward.He could technically still win the championship if he won all the remaining races and all the main contenders didn't score points.

pro3mark Posted July 30, 2009 Report Share Posted July 30, 2009 Don't forget his bike accident to make it that LITTLE bit harder to get him back into the flow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matt~black Posted July 31, 2009 Report Share Posted July 31, 2009 (edited) I don't think there's anything stopping him from driving last seasons car to reaquaint himself to F1. It's no doubt quite a bit different to the new car, but better than nothing.apart from the massive shuffle up over aerodynamics etc at the start of this season I'd imagine he has driven this years car before anyway he is a major tester for them still Edited July 31, 2009 by matt~black Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gibbeth! Posted July 31, 2009 Report Share Posted July 31, 2009 Schuey's back in F1 and already the rules are changing around him.He's now allowed a free test before the Friday session, bloody brown nosing FIA. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
noddy Posted July 31, 2009 Report Share Posted July 31, 2009 Schuey's back in F1 and already the rules are changing around him.He's now allowed a free test before the Friday session, bloody brown nosing FIA.it is a joke that he gets to test and the 19 year old the other week was not aloud ferrari always get stuff just there way will be good to see if he still has it in him tho !!!

CasperGTI Posted July 31, 2009 Report Share Posted July 31, 2009 Schuey's back in F1 and already the rules are changing around him.He's now allowed a free test before the Friday session, bloody brown nosing FIA.Hes not testing in the F60 though. Its a F2008 or F2007 with areodynamic changes to make it as close to the F60 as possible. So actually there not braking any rules.Ferrari just have too much money to throw about, so they can do these things.Im very shocked that shui is making a comeback, its alot to loose and not much to gain. It will make very interesting racing, being a huge F1 fan myself.Cant wait to see the shui/hamilton showdown though.John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
99hjhm Posted July 31, 2009 Report Share Posted July 31, 2009 I can't wait for another Raikkonen ice cream moment, when Schumacher gives him a good caning!Amazing Ferrari never had a backup plan! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
northwick Posted July 31, 2009 Report Share Posted July 31, 2009 Amazing Ferrari never had a backup plan!They have Luca Badoer and Marc Gene. They would have been available if Schumacher wasn't. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gibbeth! Posted July 31, 2009 Report Share Posted July 31, 2009 They have Luca Badoer and Marc Gene. They would have been available if Schumacher wasn't.They're Ferraris test drivers, and one of them should have got the driver, before they were gazumped by a pensioner.
