The Race of Champions (ROC) is set to return to Sydney, Australia, and the excitement is palpable as two of the sport's most iconic drivers, Michael Schumacher and Sebastian Vettel, are set to team up and represent Germany in the prestigious event. Schumacher, a seven-time Formula One world champion, and Vettel, a four-time F1 champion, have a long-standing friendship and have previously competed together in the ROC, making their reunion in Sydney all the more anticipated.

A Legendary Pairing Poised for Victory

Schumacher and Vettel's partnership has proven to be a formidable force in the past, and they are determined to claim the overall winners' trophy in both the ROC Nations Cup and the individual Race of Champions. With their combined experience and skill, the German duo is poised to put on a thrilling show for the Australian fans and cement their legacy as two of the greatest drivers in motorsport history.

Schumacher's Affinity for Australia
