More excitement with Schumacher's return.
In what may go down as one of the greatest sporting comebacks, seven-time Formula One world champion Michael Schumacher announced Wednesday that he will return to racing after three years in retirement. Just 11 days shy of his 41st birthday — he'll be the oldest driver on the F1 circuit when he comes back — Schumacher said he's signed a three-year contract with Mercedes GP and that he'll return to the track for the opening race of the 2010 season in Bahrain on March 14. His will be the highest-profile return to F1 since Austrian Niki Lauda came out of a two-year retirement to race for McLaren in 1982. Lauda, who was 33 at the time, went on to win a third world title in 1984.
