So you are glad Massa may be blind in his left eye... just to see Schumacher do one more race for a publicity stunt.......By the way BMW have said thay are pulling out of F1....the germans can not hack it

Shumacher is already to old to throw competition out of the track. When some Brazilian pilot suffers seriously this guy appears smiling. How I love that corner on Silverstone...

Heard about it today and also thought it was a bit crazy at first time, but i am sure Ferrari team doesnt take decisions on air. Schumacher must still be in great shape to be able to it again!

I haven't watched F1 for years, but I'll definately going to watch the races now that Schumi is back - not because I'm a fan of his, but I think it could be interesting to see him drive again, see how well he does etc
I can't watch the Valencia grand prix on Aug 23, but will definately watch the Belgium one at the end of August.

Press Relase from Ferrani
Maranello, 11th August 2009 - With Michael Schumacher now being unavailable to stand in for Felipe Massa, as from the forthcoming European Grand Prix, Scuderia Ferrari Marlboro announces that car number 3 will be driven by Luca Badoer.
"I am very unhappy that a problem means that Michael cannot return to racing," commented Luca di Montezemolo. "In the past few days, I could appreciate his great efforts and extraordinary motivation which had spread through the team and fans around the world. No doubt his return would have been good for Formula 1 and I am sure it would have seen him fighting for wins again. In the name of Ferrari and all the fans, I wish to thank him for the strong attachment he displayed for the team in these circumstances. In agreement with Stefano Domenicali, we have therefore decided to give Luca Badoer the chance to race for the Scuderia after he has put in so many years of hard work as a test driver."
