Michael Schumacher in MotoGP?
By John

While it’s still a long-shot, it’s not a complete impossibility. Back in November, the seven-time F1 champ took MotoGP champ Casey Stoner’s factory Ducati around Spain’s Valencia course at a pretty good clipa mere five seconds off the lap recordwhich had onlookers amazed. At the time that he said he had no plans to race, but his longtime manager recently refused to dismiss the idea, saying "anything is possible." While 38 seems a little old to start a motorcycle racing career, if he decided to join the MotoGP fray, Schumacher would surely be a formidable opponent. What do you think? Should he get on a bike?

Shumacher could go faster but I can’t see him getting anywhere near the action, anyway there’s already enough of that in MotoGP. We don’t need another back marker.

Ha,ha,ha a mere 5 seconds? Hate too tell you but even Mike knows that 5 seconds is a lifetime and that the final few 10th’s are what make the difference between brillient and aslo ran.
