Michael Schumacher has taken to karting now that his test with the Ferrari F60 was made impossible. Schumacher and Ferrari test driver Luca Badoer were present at the Lonato karting circuit in Italy as to get more seat time in a race chassis, although not quite a single seater like the one he'll be driving in Valencia later this month.

The german yellow press newspaper Bild says, that Schumacher will replace Massa in the next races... The text says, that they have got a 100% reliable source!
Same information from my french source, so Schumi has probably said he will accept an offer.
I am not sure he need some mileage before racing : if he find a GP2 car or an old F1 (this is really feasable to my mind) so he can spend nearly the next 3 weeks driving.
Add this to the fact that he spend all of his time on a race track... I am pretty sure that Schumi will not be far from Kimi.
It would be nice to see Schumacher back,
but should he really drive in F1 as it is today?
This year F1 just sucks.
It is not what it used to be 10 years before.
There are too much idiotic punishments and no real racing anymore.
I am afraid Schumacher will just be a victim of the way things happen these days.
I did not think he would do it but both Domenicali and Montezemolo asked him to do it. So pending all medical go well he will be back in the F60. I love it. Many of the young drivers will love to compete with him on track.
Kimi is probably completely umperturbated. He will say something like this: "I drive the car and we are still not fast enough. The car needs more hard work by the team. There is a second car and I don't really care who drives it."
Formula One's fundamental ethos is about success coming to those with the most ingenious engineering and best ..............................organization, not to those with the biggest budget. (Dave Richards)
Fantastic news! Ferrari are not in the position to fight for wins let alone the championship, if Michael does good than good for him, if he does not so good well F60 is far from the best cars in the field so it’s okay. And sponsors will love it, public will love it. I love it!
