Mosley, Schumacher fan

Michael Schumacher, back for the European Grand Prix, this is news that must have pleased Max Mosley. Indeed, the enormous publicity which will benefit the Formula 1 in the media can only rejoice the president of the FIA. But, at first, the Briton showed disbelief at the announcement of the return of the seven-time world champion. “ I was in my house in Monaco, on the phone with Ecclestone, and I heard the television, Mosley said to As. I said to him, “Is Michael really back? » I didn't know anything about that and Bernie said "no way". Then he added that he had sat in front of the television and that he was perplexed »

Rather than one of Ferrari's reserve drivers, ready to replace Felipe Massa at short notice, it is therefore the seven-time world champion who comes out of retirement to help the Team. But, for Max Mosley, the German driver will be able to regain his winning reflexes. “ It will be very efficient, confirms Mosley. Schumacher cannot be slow. Okay, he's been retired for three years and he's forty, but what difference does that make? Fangio was 46 years old when he won his last championship title. Michael is a winner. He has this gift and has shown it many times. He can win. He can get the best out of every car, more than any other driver. »
