Michael Schumacher Confirmed He Will Return To Formula 1 with Mercedes F1

It has been confirmed that Michael Schumacher will return to Formula One with Mercedes F1 for the 2010 season alongside Nico Rosberg.

“Three years of absence gave back all the energy that I’m feeling right now,” Schumacher announced over a telephone conference. “I feel ready for some serious stuff. “I still feel absolutely on the edge. It’s thrilling and exciting. I believe I can be absolutely competitive.”

Schumacher is under a one-year $10 million dollar contract, but he stated that the object of joining Mercedes is to continue in the future, most likely a three-year contract.

Im personally not too sure if its good to see Schumacher back in Formula One. I just seem to get the feeling that he is only back because he is bored in retirement and needs something to do.
