    MS is scheduled to make his first Ferrari paddock appearance in his new role with the team at Barcelona, than again at Monaco, and Nurburgring.

    He is taking his retirement seriously. Spending time with his family. Some forced retirement.

    That is like 9 days involvement. Not a big deal. I am sure his wife must be already asking him to stop moping around the house and do something. :D

    Whatever he wants is what I hear. And no, he is not bored with his retirement as some would like to believe.

    Yes, that's it. I dial a 1-900 number and get to chat with Michael. The problem is it costs $100/minute.

    I heard he just moved into his new mansion on Lake Geneva that was just finished, I doubt he is bored yet.

    His role has not been properly defined yet according to press reports. It sounded pretty much like they just want to keep him involved for the moment and for Ferrari and Schumacher to consider how best to use his experience etc. over time.

    chaa,

    It's the same role I play, at my firm....."Wise Old Man"

    You just lounge around and when the newbies run out of brains, they turn to you in a panic and say:

    "WHAT DO WE DO NOW!!!!????!!!"

    Then you share the wisdom of your years......it's good work, if you can get it!
