Michael Schumacher enjoying his retirement

NEWS STORY

Michael Schumacher says he is content to be out of Formula One, and though, for the first time since 1991 his weekends are free, he has no problems filling his time.

"I'm a pretty happy man," he told reporters at a Shell promotional event in Poland. "I live a good life. I have had good times in the past, but I certainly have better times now. That's very clear.

"I spend more time at home now. I can draw my schedule in a way that at least in the holiday times I can be at home and spend the vacation with the kids. That is very nice for us.

"But I'm still very close to the racing," he admitted, "and involved with almost everything that's happening."

Although working as an 'adviser' to Ferrari he has yet to attend a race this season, instead he watches from the couch, like regular fans.

"It's funny, but it's normal," he laughed. "Watching is interesting, seeing it from a different side. But I'm not looking at it to learn something, it's not my ambition. I'm looking at it just to enjoy it with my family and my friends together, and enjoy the event as you do."
