 Michael Schumacher could occupy a berth on the Ferrari pit wall this weekend, according to his media spokeswoman.

The seven time world champion's trip to Barcelona is his first attendance at a grand prix since he raced for the last time last October.

Spokeswoman Sabine Kehm is quoted as saying: "He might sit on the pit wall, but Michael does not want to interfere with the racing.

"His only function will be advisory," Kehm told 'Bild'.

The German newspaper added that Schumacher, 38, is scheduled to fly into the Spanish city in his private jet on Friday morning, and address the world's press at the Circuit de Catalunya at midday.

But Kehm suggested that Schumacher's interview will be short and relate only to himself, rather than to the Ferrari team or F1 in general
