Michael Schumacher will not reach top form as per Alain Prost

Alain Prost feels that Michael Schumacher return to top form will be impossible simply due to his age. Discussing Schumacher return in an interview to the Swiss newspaper - Le Matin Dimanche, Prost said it will be impossible at Schumacher's age to return to the form he had when he left the sport.

Prost felt that his lack of pace was due to his age and not due the Bridgestone tyres. Michael Schumacher and Merdedes GP team principal Ross Brawn had said many times during the last season that the weak Bridgestone front tyres were the reason for Schumacher's lack of pace. Schumacher failed to beat his teammate Nico Rosberg on several occasions, but it did seem that he was slowly coming back to terms towards the end of the season

With this years change to Pirelli tyres, would we see a reversal of fortunes for Schumacher ? The wait is soon to be over with the first pre-season test only a week away
