Michael Schumacher is an absolute legend of Formula One. Of that you cannot dispute. Made his debut in 1991, and seven world titles later, is still a major player. Extraordinary!
Luck however, is something that in 2012 has deserted him and his Mercedes team. Whilst team mate Nico Rosberg has finished every race and won in dominant fashion in China, prior to the European Grand Prix in Valencia, Michael Schumacher has had a wretched time, collaring a mere two points. Majority of the time it's through no fault of his own. A stuck open DRS system here, an loose wheel nut there. The list goes on. Barring his altercation with Williams driver Bruno Senna at Catalunya, Schumi has been pretty competitive each race weekend and qualifying well. It's just that on Sunday afternoons it's not translating to the results he desires. Recently Schumi and Mercedes have stated that they are working through the issues, and Michael's commitment and motivation is unwavering and is as strong as ever. His contract is up for renewal at the end of this season. If his run of bad luck continues, will this deflate Michael Schumacher enough to consider retirement at the end of the current season? Can he and his team turn around his 2012 season? Will Schumi be the eighth different winner of 2012? After all, this season is so unpredictable that anything is still feasible. Two or three wins and everyone will be talking about Schumi. Will his competitive spirit reach new heights and sign again for 2013 and possibly beyond in his quest to help promote Mercedes to the top of Formula One?
