Schumi back in Ferrari pit


Seven-times world champion Michael Schumacher is expected to be back in Formula One pit on race day this Sunday for the first time after his retirement since 2006. His manager confirmed that Schumacher will be back in Ferrari's pit at the Melbourne Grand Prix circuit to help advise the engineers as his former team's secret weapon. He also added that it wasn't so important to have him in the pits last two years, but with the new rule changes he will help the engineers to understand the car better. That is his task, it will be crucial to communicate with the engineers. They evaluate the data and Miachel's experience will be important for that. Schumacher is already on his way to Australia to help Ferrari drivers Felipe Massa and Kimi Raikkonen.

FIA shelves rule changes after protest


FIA agreed to put off the new points system for the sport until next season after the teams objected. The Formula One Teams Association said FIA's decision this week that the championship title will go to the driver with the most race wins instead of the highest points total was invalid, prompting the governing body to put off the system. FIA told "If the teams do not agree with the new system it will be deferred till 2010".
