This news just dropped in and is hot! German newspaper Bild confirmed the fact that Michael Schumacher agreed a 3.5 million euro deal to drive in the next season of Formula 1 for… Mercedes GP.

Don’t know who is Mercedes GP? Well, for those who don’t know, back in November Mercedes-Benz bought a 75% stake in the Brawn GP team, and this team received a new name: Mercedes GP. So, this means that Schumacher left Ferrari and went down to their biggest rival, Mercedes-Benz. “The signature is just a formality. Schumacher feels fit and healthy. The latest [medical] tests were entirely positive. He can’t wait for the return and working with Ross Brawn again.” said the source.
