Being somewhat of a car racing enthusiast myself, I was excited to read that Michael Schumacher, also known as ‘The Stig‘ will return to Formula 1 racing in March 2010. Go comeback kid!

And yes, the car I’m standing next to… I actually did fit inside it, even though I had to take off my own shoes to have them replaced by narrower, more flexible shoes. Part of an unforgettable experience called the Coca Cola Zero Race Experience at the Dutch Zandvoort Circuit.

On Michael’s official website he commented the following:

Until recently, I was absolutely sure that I had ended my career as a race driver at Ferrari. But sometimes things change suddenly and unexpectedly. All of a sudden, the framework conditions aren’t the same anymore. At that point, you have to reconsider the decisions you’ve made. And, to tell the truth, the failed comeback attempt last summer gave me reason to reconsider my situation. I was surprised myself how fast and how strong I committed myself to this topic again. Apparently, my batteries recharged completely during the last three years. And when – thanks to Ross – the opportunity arose to drive for Mercedes GP, I realized that my old motivation was back, full of fresh energy and great force.
