He races currently with Ferrari team along with teammate Eddie Irvine and will continue to do so till 2002 when he said that he will retire from racing, probrably to start his own racing team.To defeat Micheal someone said "that you either had to be in a williams a few years ago or now in a Mclaren", the two superior cars in the last decade or so.

Micheal got his 1st chance to race in F1 along side the Great Aryton Senna where he must have got tremendous help from, Micheal Schumacher won his 1st formula 1 championship in 1994 when he won the last race at Suzaka in a nail biting finish with british driver Damon Hill in a controversial move which had Damon exit from the race. His moves have made him a great fan with many people and on many a occasion he used his brains to outwit his opponents when his car failed to keep up to the pace he wanted but he has also developed a lot of critiscm from others which only goes to show the greatness of the man.
