Schumacher Won’t Race MotoGP, Scooter Racing Still Viable
The dream may be over for those fans who thought Michael Schumacher could make a good showing in the world of MotoGP, unless of course they open up a scooter class.

Schumi casually dismissed the rumors that have been flying lately, somewhat egged on by his long-time manager Willi Weber, that he was attempting to make a comeback to the racing world by entering the MotoGP round at Mugello as a wild-card. Turns out it was the rumor that was the wild-card, as Schumacher took time during his Monday run of Ferrari testing in Barcelona, to call the story, “an absolute lie.” Despite that cut and dry statement of fact, it didn’t seem like the driver held any ill-will because of the false reports, as he went on to say, “At the most, I can race on a scooter.” Now there’s something that we would pay to see.
