The God of Racing returns!

Michael Schumacher’s return to Formula 1 is the best news the sport could get, according to his brother Ralf.

“He was itching to come back. But no one expected that," Ralf told German television network N-24. “After all the bad headlines on the sport recently this is absolutely great. Nothing better could have happened for Formula 1 than my brother coming back."

“The God of racing has come back. The legend will drive again," read Germany's Bild newspaper’s headline.

Italy’s Gazzetta dello Sport also had the headline: “It’s Schumacher turn!" on its front page.
