Schumacher fourth in bike debut
Seven-time Formula One champion Michael Schumacher finished fourth in his first competitive motorbike race.
The 39-year-old, who was third in qualifying, recorded the second-fastest lap in the minor series event at the Misano circuit in Italy.
He was blocked in at the first corner and slipped down to 10th place but battled back through the field to finish just outside the podium places.
Schumacher rode a 990cc KTM Super Duke in the 10-lap KTM Trophy race.
“At the start I was a bit too careful, I didn’t begin well and I was well behind. Then I found my way and started overtaking and it was great,” he said.
Asked afterwards if he was considering making a career in MotoGP or Superbikes, he added: “There’ll be no second career on motorbikes, this is just a hobby.”
