Schumacher to discuss with Ferrari

Michael Schumacher, if he did not get back behind the wheel in competition in Valencia, will still have shown all his attachment to the Team during its aborted preparation. Replacing Felipe Massa at short notice, injured in Hungary, the seven-time world champion had carried out numerous tests, carrying out very serious preparation, before being as competitive as possible at the wheel of the F60. But his recurring neck pain ultimately hampered his plans. Still, Ferrari was able to realize that Schumacher had strong links with the team, which was confirmed by Willi Weber in the German press. “ Ferrari understands the importance of the Ferrari family in Michael's eyes », Declared the agent of the seven-time world champion.

However, everything has not been rosy between Michael Schumacher and Ferrari in recent months. At the start of the season, the Scuderia consultant was even questioned in his functions, with some explaining Ferrari's poor results by the German's strategic choices. Beyond the interest of Michael Schumacher?s contribution to the team, the Scuderia could have wished to reduce a salary of around five million euros per year.

But the recent events which have shaken up the prancing horse stable seem to have changed the situation. So much so that Willi Weber believes that Ferrari will soon communicate its intentions to Michael Schumacher. “ Something will happen at the Italian Grand Prix in Monza in two weeks. The holidays will be over in Italy and we can chat. » During the month of August, the German driver had an impeccable attitude towards Ferrari, the argument being significant before starting the negotiations.
