Controversial, but influential Red Bull driver consultant Helmut Marko believes that Michael Schumacher is the key to the ‘silly season’ which appears to have been kick started this week with reports about Lewis Hamilton’s contract negotiations with McLaren.
As for the reports swirling around Hamilton, Marko surmised plainly: “It’s the usual antics, to drive up his price at McLaren. Actually everything depends on Schumacher.”
Marko predicts that if Michael Schumacher does not extend his contract at Mercedes, the driver market will suddenly explode.
The seven times world champion returned to the sport at the start of 2010, but has not had a very successful comeback and this year has been struck with wicked luck. This has prompted rumours that he may hang up his helmet, once and for all, at the end of this season.
