Schumacher-Honda rumor?

Seems that while I was scoffing at Grace’s thought of Michael Schumacher saving the Brackley-based F1 team, she’s gone and started rumors that had to be denied. Ok, maybe it wasn’t her but there were rumors and they did have to be denied by the Schumacher PR corp.
Jan.6 (GMM) Michael Schumacher’s press spokeswoman has played down reports the retired seven time world champion might get involved in the rescue of the embattled Honda Racing F1 team.
It was suggested the 40-year-old could have been in talks with his former Ferrari colleague Ross Brawn, now the Brackley based team’s boss, about investing some of his own money in the wake of Honda’s decision to withdraw from the sport.
But to the German language portal motorsport-total.com, Schumacher’s representative Sabine Kehm rubbished the rumour.
“Ross and Michael are still friends, that’s true,” she said.
“But Michael’s involvement with Honda is limited to the IDM (German Superbike series),” Kehm added.
This still leaves the Schum open for Grace’s other idea of the Ferrari dream team assembling to take the helm of the FIA.

That last sentence was so scary that I think I peed myself a little bit.
Is this what the next two months will be like for F1 news? This one really doesn’t make much sense to begin with. Other than a friendship between MS and Ross, there is absolutely nothing about the BBF1 team that could/would attract a guy like Michael. There are better (and more fun) ways to blow a couple hundred million Euros.
But he’s already *involved* with Honda, and he’s *friends* with Brawn. WD, this obviously is already a done deal.
I’m kidding. That’s not why this deal is done. It’s so the Schum can screw poor Rubens one last time. Fancy a Jenson-Schum line-up, anyone?
SJ – that was cold. Funny, but cold. And I think I peed myself a bit more.

Maybe Rubens can become a spokesman for those products.
When you get to be my age, peeing yourself is simply reassurance that you’re still alive.
