Schumacher going to Renault?????

[Wizzo]

The smart money in the Formula 1 paddock in Melbourne is on a Renault driver line-up in 2007 of Michael Schumacher and Heikki Kovalainen. This may sound an unlikely state of affairs but it makes a great deal of sense for all concerned. That does not mean it is going to happen but it is a logical argument.

Renault is losing Fernando Alonso to McLaren and that was a blow to the team's ego if nothing else. Renault will want to bounce back from that situation with some positive publicity and the best possible PR in the circumstances would be to sign a bigger name. Kimi Raikkonen is not a bigger name and anyway is going to Ferrari and there is no-one else in the same league, except Michael Schumacher.

And he's in a much bigger league.

Comments??

Renault boss Flavio Briatore wants seven-time world champion Michael Schumacher to drive for his team next year, according to reports. Schumacher's Ferrari deal expires at the end of this season, when world champion Fernando Alonso quits Renault.

Schumacher's agent Willi Webber was quoted as saying in German newspaper Bild: "Flavio has been in touch to say that we should talk with him.

"We have known Flavio for a long time but we will speak with Ferrari first."
