ACCORDING to German newspaper Bild seven times F1 World Champion Michael Schumacher has just registered for the German Superbike Championship under the false name of Marcel Hiederhausen to race in the series' next round at Oschersleben.

He is expected to compete for the Holzhauer Racing team, whom he tested for a couple of weeks back. Anyone still think that he won't turn up in MotoGP at some point?

You can't take anything away from Schuey; he may be no Rossi when it comes to personality, but what an awesome talent.

Good luck to the Box Head. Can't knock him for retaining his interest in motorsport after his career...

Call me a killjoy but it would be a big shame to see him crach out and be severly injured in a bike accident after his F1 career.

That said he is an awesome talent as said above and if he can lend some of his publicity weight to us bikers then it can only be good for us. Can you imagine Nigel Mansell trying to get around the track on a bike - last time I saw him he was an overweight lump !!!

Mr Marv

It would bring a few F1 spectators to Moto GP, but serisouly, do wee need the jumped up arseholes from F1?

He's in training to ride the BMW S1000RR in WSB.

I made that up, but I bet it happens.

Think he just finished 28th in Oschersleben.

Ah well, at least he finished.
