He may have had a 3 year break from F1 but he has not just sat there. he has been competing in various forms of motorsport.
He has raced bikes and Karts so he isnt going to need to sharpen up at all. (Karting is the most competative form of motorport in the world)
I just hope the car is competative as id love to see him win the title next year. I have always followed schumacher since he started in F1.
I cant see Ferrari's drivers and also Maclaren drivers working together Harmoniously. This combined with Schu in a quick Merc could hopefully cause a stir!!!
Total bollocks, Mansell was still a full time race driver when he 'came back to f1', nobody was stronger in the neck than him, he HAD to be strong because of his injuries
Shuey has been away from the sharp end for 3 years, and Alonso was arguably better the two seasons previous to that as well. Even Button regularly outmuscled him when his car was up to it.
Pity Kimi wont be around but unless the Brawn/Merc is the class car of the field by a margin then he will struggle agains Alonso, Hammy, Button, Vettell.
