Ralf to take a sabbatical in 2008

By on

It appears that Ralf Schumacher will take a sabbatical in 2008. The German doesn't expect to race in the pinnacle of motor sport next season, but he isn't ruling out to race in a different racing series.

Ralf Schumacher said in an interview with Motorsport-total.com: "I will take a break from Formula 1 in 2008 as things look right now. I've got three difficult years at Toyota behind me and Force India is not an option for me. The team starts from scratch so that isn't the right option for me I think."

"Theoretically it is possible to return in 2009 but it won't be easy. Formula 1 is not waiting for anyone."
