|
(GMM) Michael Schumacher will race multiple NASCAR champion Jeff Gordon, a Californian, in the 'Race of Champions' this December.
The star of American tin-top racing has confirmed he is also signed-up to contest the novel event at the 'Stade de France.'
Gordon said: ''I met (Schu) in Spain at the F1 race. I would love to beat him and that we'll go head-to-head is awesome.''
Meanwhile, German newspaper 'Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung' claims Puma will soon become a sponsor of the Ferrari F1 team.
Also, F1 teams Renault, Williams, BAR, Jaguar and Jordan sent demo cars to another event on London's 'Regent Street' on Sunday. |

WRC Rally Cars. Should be interesting. There's been discussion in various threads.
The WRC Rally Drivers don't think the circuit guys can keep up.
Put them in the same car, I think they would be pretty close, but I give Schu the advantage. Jeff ran a Williams a year or so back, and would have been fast enough to qualify on the F1 Grid that the FW24 raced on... and this is with only a couple of hours in the car...

Well, seing as though NASCAR is just round and round in circles, I reckon the Schumacher is going to pwn the other geezer. But I still reckon the Mister McRae could pwn the pair of them. |
