Michael Schumacher, born on 3 January 1969 in Kerpen (Germany), recently, after his 90th Grand Prix victory at Monza, announced that he was retiring from active participation in motor racing. He is the undisputed king of Formula 1, having been world champion seven times in total, five times between 2000 and 2004 – a record unparalleled in grand-prix racing. This makes this German resident in Switzerland the most successful racing driver of all times.
