Bah. for me i dont want him back.
a) its gonna be odd seeing him in anything other than a Ferrari
b) i think he is past it, he should have stayed in retirement and kept his glory, he isnt going to embarrass himself but i don't think he has what it takes to beat the top guys of the sport now.
Im actually surprised that Mercedes managed to pull him away from his Ferrari contract. I suppose that Mr Brawn being principle was a major swing for Mikey.0 -

Basically, you're going to have 2 Brits driving for a German team and 2 Germans driving for a brit team. (or have I got that wrong somehow...)0

McLaren have parted company with Merc now Stu, the only thing left is the engine supply contract which runs out in a couple of years. Enough time for McLaren to their own engine out.0

Most of the teams are brittish anyway - they have very little to do with they're main-stream namesakes.
Personally i don't think he should come out of retirement - he's already the most successful F1 driver there has ever been, so what else does he have to prove? And i'm not sure he'll even be competitive. That said, i think he's signed with the best team.0
