Schumacher to defend kart event title
Seven-time world champion Michael Schumacher will defend his title at the
International Challenge of Go-Kart Champs in Brazil later this year, it was
announced on Friday.
Schumacher will lead a strong field of 26-27 drivers in the November 30
event, organised by Ferrari's Felipe Massa.
"To be honest, I didn't even have to invite him to come back," said Massa of
Schumacher. "He told me recently in Hockenheim that he wished to race again
because loved the town and the relaxed atmosphere he found here."
Massa expects Robert Kubica, Sebastien Vettel and Sebastien Bourdais to also
attend the event.
"It was almost everything set to Kubica attend the race in 2007, but a last-
minute commitment prevented him from coming," he added. "He watched the
International Challenge on TV and knows what the race is about. Now I'm
confident that he will be able to take part for the first time."
Massa has also approached four-time NASCAR Cup champion Jeff Gordon.
"I met him at Indianapolis GP some years ago and then we raced together at
the Champions Race in Paris. He seemed to be a nice guy and said that always
wanted to visit my country. That is his chance and I think he will not miss
it," Massa added.

七屆世界冠軍麥可舒馬赫本周五宣布他將參加今年的卡丁車國際挑戰賽，力求衛冕他的
冠軍。
舒馬赫將帶領26-27名各個領域的優秀車手亮相由法拉利馬薩組織的11月30日的活動。
“說實話我沒想過可以請他復出，”馬薩提到舒馬赫，“他最近在霍根海姆告訴我他希望
可以再次參賽，因為他很喜歡那個城鎮和那裡輕鬆的氣氛。”
馬薩希望庫比卡、維特爾和伯爾戴斯也能參加這個活動。
“2007年幾乎所有的事情都為庫比卡準備好了，但是在最後一刻組委會沒能讓他參加。”
他繼續說道。“他收看了國際挑戰賽的電視轉播，了解了這個比賽的情況。現在我非常確
信他今年會首次亮相這個活動。”
馬薩還接觸了美國賽車聯合會杯錦標賽的四屆冠軍Jeff Gordon。
“很多年前我曾在印第安納波利斯大獎賽時遇到他，之後我們在巴黎一起參加了冠軍
大賽。他看來是個很好的人，他說他一直很想到我的國家遊覽。這次會是他的機會，
我覺得他不會錯過。”馬薩補充道。
