Michael Schumacher in charge of developing cars 

Following his retirement in 2006, seven time Formula One World Champion Michael Schumacher said this morning to the Italian sports newspaper La Gazzetta dello Sport that he has agreed with Ferrari to be in charge of developing cars for Gestione Sportiva, Ferrari’s motor racing division.

“It took us a bit of time to establish, but now my role inside Ferrari is clear: we had to understand where my presence would be most useful. I deal with the development of the car inside Gestione Sportiva. We haven’t yet scheduled the days when I’ll drive the car, nothing’s decided. We’ll evaluate depending on the situations: if the team need me to, I’d like to drive, but not too often”, Schumacher said.
