Schumacher can't be written off - Hill

Michael Schumacher is not about to give up on his new quest to return to winning ways in formula one.

That is the opinion of the German's 90s nemesis Damon Hill, amid suggestions the seven time world champion has lost his edge and could return to retirement before his three-year commitment to Mercedes is fulfilled.

"Just never write the guy off. I made that mistake. You cannot count him out. He is never out.

"He has always somehow pulled something out of the hat somewhere," said Briton Hill, now president of the Silverstone-owning BRDC.
