It's official, Shumacher's racing for MB!!! 
Michael Schumacher has now signed a contract to return to formula one next year with Mercedes, according to multiple authoritative sources.
Germany's Bild newspaper and the BBC in Britain say the seven time world champion, who turns 41 in early January, has signed a one-year deal.
Bild, valuing the contract at 7 million euros, said the German's decision is the "biggest comeback in sports history". Schumacher reportedly signed the deal at Brackley, with an announcement to be made on Tuesday.
His spokeswoman Sabine Kehm would not comment, but Schumacher's friend Sebastian Vettel said he was happy to hear the news.
"This is his own decision for his own reasons but it makes me happy that he is going to be there. I hope he is still fit enough for his age to ride along with us," the Red Bull driver is quoted as saying by RTL Nachtmagazin.Bild said Mercedes is seeking special permission so that Schumacher can test the Brawn car in January.

ala Babel Fish.
The 91-fache GP-winner and 7malige world champion (twice with Benetton and five times in series with Ferrari) drives on own risk, after it had broken a Halswirbel on 12 February 2009 with a Töffunfall in Spain and a head fracture carried off. Therefore its first planned comeback in Valencia failed in August. At that time the German had believed, it can replace the injured Massa with Ferrari. But the pain was too large. Now it wants to know Schumi simply. Obviously it the private life became too monotonous. Whether Schumi beside Nico Rosberg (25) out-looks in Mercedes better, knows still nobody. At Mercedes the superstar from Gland VD might over ten million franc per year certainly take. Above all now, where the Malaysian oil giant Petronas with 60 million euros per year entered. There one will more hardly haggle around or two million, because something is clear: Schumacher will place all its to colleagues medial into the shade. Whether this succeeds also sportily, in addition, many doubt, many are convinced. Ex champion Niki Lauda: “The Schumi, packs it.” If it should become world champions, then would be this of the respected titles - and the respected with its bosom friend Ross Brawn (54), which had accompanied it with Benetton and Ferrari. the Britisher Jenson Button in own the team makes, got 2009 to the world champion also the team crown (with button, Barrichello). Forwards over one month then Mercedes bought the world champion team, in order to return with the own name on the success road.

Now wants to know just Schumi. Obviously, it's private life has become monotonous. Whether Schumacher alongside Nico Rosberg (25) in the Mercedes look better, nobody knows.
At Mercedes the superstar from England VD would certainly collect more than ten million francs per year. Especially now, is entered when the Malaysian oil giant Petronas, with 60 million euros per year.
Since they will be around one or two million more difficult bargaining, because something is clear: Schumacher will put all his colleagues in the media on the shade. Whether this sport succeed, many doubt, many are also convinced. Former champion Niki Lauda: "The Schumi, who grabs it."
If he should be champion, then this would be the eighth title - and the eighth with his bosom friend Ross Brawn (54), who had accompanied him, even at Benetton and Ferrari. Briton Jenson Button in 2009, the team owned the champion makes the team took the crown (with Button, Barrichello).
More than a month, then bought the Mercedes Champion team to return with their own name on the road to success.
