Schumacher on brink of return, says Ferrari chief
The seven-time world champion is currently employed as an advisor to Ferrari, the team with whom he won five of his titles, and is an ambassador for their road car division, but has strongly been linked with a move to the firm’s German rivals.
Schumacher, who retired at the end of 2006, has so far remained tight-lipped on the matter, but Di Montezemolo informed reporters at Ferrari’s Christmas lunch in Fiorano yesterday that the deal is close to being realised.
