Schumacher comes full circle with Mercedes
Stuttgart shimmered as Mercedes re-launched their famous "Silver Arrows" back into Formula 1 and, for the first time since announcing his own dramatic return, Michael Schumacher faced the media in the flesh.
The snow-laden skies and snaking autobahns of the southern German city were mirrored by the metallic grey of the imposing where the launch was held.
A homage to Mercedes' motoring prowess, with eight floors packed to the rafters with historic cars, the museum - where past and present merge - was the perfect setting to mark the reuniting of the famous German manufacturer with the legendary German driver.
But despite the hype of a match made in heaven, the 2010 F1 season will not be the first time Schumacher has raced for Mercedes.
People often ask how I came to be the Formula 1 lady for the ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ website. Well, after being dragged around vintage car rallies and auto jumbles by my Dad, motor racing got under my skin. I am now a fully paid-up member of F1's travelling circus after a year on the road as part of the ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ team. I look forward to bringing you more on- and off-track adventures here.
