Ralf Schumacher to run DTM
 
I was just looking at Speed.com and saw that Ralf is going to run in the DTM series in a year old Mercedes chassis. He will be paid 1 million dollars:confused: Am I the only one that thinks that Ralf stinks as a driver:rolleyes: What does he bring to the table?

I dont get it either...it certainly aint his personality! This is one thing I notice about European racing that wouldnt fly around here - the drivers can treat the fans and media like crap and thier sponsors dont care.

In Europe the wealthy have always got away with treating "commoners" like crap.

sounds like he got a paycut:)

Name recognition. He drives OK, but just being an ex-F1 driver might be enough to justify the salary...
