Michael Schumacher the future team owner?

Post

There's nothing on the internet but it a self thinking.

If Michael Schumacher became a team owner which he does have plenty of money from
contracts and endorsments. He is also a the most experienced driver and it would be an excellent asset for the team.

He could name his team "Shumacher Team".

Nah..He has seen Prost ...that should be enough..
Drivers rarely are good team bosses .
I even think he was not the best option on the pitwall at ferrari.. sitting at the wall is not comparable to siting in the car.I have the feeling that some of their Q1 and Q2 grinds and sudden deaths were triggered by overambitious schumacher gambles...:-)

I really can't see any reason how this could possibly fail.

Erm, I'm not sure I agree with you there. Doesn't Mr Barichello have more races to his name than Mr Schumacher.

How about Adrian Campos? Save for a bad attempt at F1, he's been pretty much successful in the lower formulae, while he had, what? DNFs 90% of the time and finished out of the points otherwise?

Barichello is the most experienced F1 driver to have ever driven.

...

I can see Schumacher just retiring to quiet family life with the odd public appearance. Apparently he is very protective of his private life so it is reasonable to to think he will just disappear into his private life.

He could get Ralf to drive for him.

Why go out on his own? Schumi's already got Merc as his German national team, and they're already bombing the British pits with tyres. Plus we're all aware who's engine is in the Force India - trust me, the stewards' attempt to placate Mercedes by justifying Sutil's occupation of Kubica's pit box will do no good. This will only get worse.
