30 years after Michael Schumachers Formula 1

Everything started in a barren with two narrow single beds in the Belgian province. For 32 euros, a room was rented in the Auberge Francopole, to experience themselves, as the for Michael Schumacher has been exactly 30 years ago. Four nights spent the later formula 1 record world champion and hero of a whole generation in this youth hostel before moving his first Grand Prix on August 25, 1991 in Spa-Francorchamps. This ended after 500 meters, but it was the memorable start of a unique career.

And this started with an emergency. Schumacher's Manager Willi Weber told Team Chief Eddie Jordan that the then 22-year-old knows the legendary course in the Ardennes. But that did not agree. That's why I grabbed a bike to drive a few laps there and I realized the same, what fantastic track that is, said Schumacher later.

Only with this trick and a lot of persuasion through Weber, who took more problems with a hotel booking the Triste Room Number Four in the hostel with his protégé, the Kerpener got the cockpit of Bertrand Gachot. The Frenchman had to prison for a taxi driver in London for a taxi driver in London at short notice.

Michael was the most impressive person who has ever given a debut in one of my cars.

Schumacher, who? Should the charismatic Jordan have asked, as a Weber suggested the Germans as a substitute. But Schumacher could convince with his incomparable driving style in a test in Silverstone and was allowed in spa behind the steering wheel of Jordan 191. I got my chance, and I used that, said Schumacher. I dreamed of Formula 1, but I never could imagine that it should really work.

In qualifying, he raced in place equally sensationally seven, and it was mooded that he would have won his first race equal if he had not braked a damage to the clutch on the first kilometer. And so he won only a year later. Of course in spa, on the track, on which he showed like no other can be. He celebrated six of his a total of 91 career victories in Belgium. The seven-time world champion loved the hilly course with the legendary uphill courtyard Eau Rouge, which is actually nothing for beginners at all.

Schumacher: I will always remember this car

Michael was the most impressive person who has ever given a debut in one of my cars. It turned out a question: Either the stopwatch was defective or this boy was damn good, said Jordan years later. Schumacher remained only one race with him and then moved to Benetton, his brother Ralf later completed 33 Grand Prix for the racing team of the iridescent Irish.

I will always remember this car, that's clear, Michael Schumacher said once about his debut car. This was just at the British car dealer Speedmaster for sale: 1.45 million euros cost the green-blue flitzer, which recalls a small soap box compared to today's Formula 1 bolides.

Schumacher's son Mick drove the car recently in Silverstone and proudly posted a photo of it at Instagram. The 22-year-old jeals to his father, while in his premiere season, is still without a World Cup, but has made a successful debut in the inferior US Renstall Haas. He enters on Sunday (15.10 clock) for the first time in a Formula 1-Boliding in Spa-Francorchamps.

Since the ski accident, Schumacher has disappeared from the public

Father Michael will not be at the track. He had suffered a heavy skull brain route at a fatal ski accident in 2013 and fought days for his life. Thanks to the work of his doctors and the participation of Corinna, who wanted him surviving, he survived - but with consequences. And at the moment you fight against the consequences, said President Jean Todt from the Motorsport World Association FIA recently in one Image interview. The former Ferrari team boss is considered close familiar of the family and wife Corinna Schumacher.

Details about Schumacher's state of health have no longer known for years, even if fans around the world wish for exactly that. The now 52-year-old lives shielded from the public and should take care of the health. We hope that things are going to improve slowly, but certainly, Todt said.
