Has schumacher signed for Mercedes?
As of 17:00 GMT on 16 December of 2009, no, but rumors have it that it won't be long until that happens. Luca di Montezemolo, president of the Ferrari team, stated that Schumacher's consultant contract with Ferrari is not binding and that he would not stand in the way of Schumacher driving for another team. Bild newspaper of Germany reported that Mercedes has offered Schumacher a contract for 2010, worth 6-7 million euros, to partner with Nico Rosberg. Nick Fry, CEO of the Mercedes team, was quoted as saying "A number of drivers are still available if Michael were to decide not to drive. We might say something before Christmas, but it's more likely to be the beginning of January." Michael Schumacher reuniting with Ross Brawn is intriguing. And Mercedes wants a driver from Germany to fill both seats in 2010. Certainly, Schumacher would have to prove his neck can handle the G forces from driving, as was not the case in his failed Ferrari comeback, prior to Mercedes signing him or as a stipulation of his contract. UPDATE: Schumacher announced on December 23 that he would drive for Mercedes in the 2010 season.
Who won the 98 grand prix championship?
The 1998 Formula One season was the 49th FIA Formula One World Championship season. It commenced on March 8, 1998, and ended on November 1 after sixteen races. McLaren had adapted to the new rule changes best as Mika Häkkinen comfortably won the first two races, with team-mate David Coulthard finishing second in both. With Goodyear making steps forward before Argentina, Michael Schumacher was able to win there and take second at Imola, both slow and twisty circuits. At Spain, however, the fast corners favoured McLaren and again they raced away to another 1-2 finish. A further win for Häkkinen in Monaco gave him a 17 point lead over Coulthard with Schumacher a further 5 points behind. Schumacher fought back to win the next 3 races, while mistakes and bad luck cost both Häkkinen and Coulthard points. After the British Grand Prix Schumacher had closed the gap to Häkkinen to just 2 points, while Coulthard was 26 points behind his team mate and looking unlikely to be able to fight for the championship. Wins in Austria and Germany for Häkkinen proved that McLaren still had the strongest car, but a strategic master stroke in Hungary allowed Schumacher to take the win and close the gap to Häkkinen to just 7 points. The start of the Belgian Grand Prix saw one of the worst accidents in F1, with over half the cars on the grid involved, and four drivers unable to take the restart almost an hour later due to lack of spare cars. An action packed race saw Häkkinen spin out at the restart, whilst Schumacher was leading comfortably before crashing into David Coulthard's McLaren whilst trying to lap the Scotsman. This led the way for Damon Hill to take Jordan's first win. Schumacher bounced back to take a surprise victory at the Italian Grand Prix, and with Häkkinen finishing only fourth after brake problems the championship was level with 2 races to go. This result also brought Ferrari back into the constructors world championship, being just 10 points behind. However, Häkkinen managed to beat Schumacher in a straight fight in Luxembourg and win the final race in Japan, clinching his first world championship and the constructors championship for McLaren.
