Michael Schumacher might have been destined to become an F1 team boss, his ex-teammate has considered.
Michael Schumacher, the seven-time Formula 1 champion, recently marked the 10-year anniversary of the skiing accident that left him with severe injuries. Since the accident, Schumacher, now 55 years old, has lived in Switzerland and has been kept out of the public eye. There has been speculation about whether Schumacher would have taken on a role as a team principal in Formula 1, particularly at Mercedes. Former teammate Johnny Herbert believes that Schumacher and Niki Lauda would have worked well together and had a significant impact if given the opportunity. Herbert also shared fond memories of Schumacher’s funnier side, including his penchant for playfully ripping off people’s shirts at end-of-season gatherings.
