In Limbo: Interview with Michael Schumacher
When Michael Schumacher announced his retirement from Formula One some 11 months ago, no one thought that the German would become a regular fixture in the paddock just a short time after. What is the seven-time world champion actually doing there, on the Ferrari pit wall? Why does he look so bored most of the time? And how has his life changed since he hung up his helmet?
From the rare glimpses that you get of him in the paddock this year, Michael Schumacher doesn't look as if he has ever been away.
You're aware that he's coming long before you see him, because his approach is always heralded by a clutch of photographers, all trying to jog backwards while scrambling to capture a shot without tripping over one another.
