    Former F1 driver R. Schumacher will test AMG Mercedes C-Klasse DTM car at Estoril track on wednesday and thursday. Just one or two days ago Michael Schumacher told to the press that Ralf shouldn't even think about DTM.

    Those 2 must hate each other.

    Ralf needs to find his groove somewhere. I think DTM is an ok move and if he does well then great.

    Christian Klien will also be testing if I'm not mistaken.

    Is it just me? Or does Michael hate anything lower than F1 (which coincidentally is everything)

    I agree. DTM is the way to go for Ralf.

    I still think Klien should have taken that ChampCar offer. Look at Doornbos

    He should do alright in DTM as long as he doesn't drive a Toyota Or a Lexus for that matter. There's some rumors that Lexus will joing the DTM mainly because of a DTM-like IS-F concept car the had on show at the 2008 AutoSalon in Tokyo. But we'll see ...

    I would love to watch a DTM race properly, great racing. Not sure about Ralf testing though. It's a bit gimmicky isn't it. You can just hear Norbert saying 'well we got one Schumacher, doesn't matter if he's useless'

    You're right, the marketing potential of a German driver like him in a German team like Mercedes is extensive to say the least. Nothing has been confirmed as of yet, which puzzles me a little bit...

    Ralf is going to test again with MB so maybe they are serious about him getting into the series.
