Schumacher Failure Not Due to Factor Age

BARCELONA - The failure of Michael Schumacher returns to Formula One (F1) is not due to aging. According to a former racing driver Johnny Herbert, Schumacher failed because of the car alone.

Herbert really know the true ability of Schumacher. She never compete with the Mercedes racer who is now defending GP for 10 years. Before deciding to retire, Schumacher won three titles from seven trophies in F1.

"The difficulty Schumacher has nothing to do with age. I think if he had been slow, he will be much slower than other drivers. It's that simple, because a new generation of riders faster than Schumacher who are old," said Herbert.

"The drivers such as Sebastian Vettel, Lewis Hamilton, Adrian Sutil, Nico Rosberg Vitaly Petrov and growing. Mercedes was clearly aware of the future of Rosberg, while Schumacher had only one or two years, so they decided to leave," he continued.

Schumacher was once dominated the F1 race in the era of the 1990s. At that time, German-born veteran racer was with Ferrari. According to Hebert, without the support of Mercedes, it is difficult for Schumacher to win.

"However, this failure will not damage the reputation of Schumacher. He never won the title of Mika Hakkinen dand Jacques Villeneuve. However, its dominance is clear because it was still in the Ferrari and all the people support it," said Herbert told Eurosports,
