Schumacher at Wembly in December

Michael Schumacher will be at Wembley Stadium this December when the Race of Champions is held in the UK for the first time. The seven-time Formula One world champion will take on a star line-up including Colin McRae, David Coulthard, Jenson Button, Andy Priaulx and other big names from rallying, touring car racing and F1.

Usually held in France, the end-of-season contest involves drivers from different disciplines going head to head in a variety of racing cars. Up to 80,000 spectators will be able to watch the live action on Sunday 16 December in the recently opened Wembley, which will get a temporary tarmac surface for the event.
