Only days before the Luxembourg Grand Prix in Nürburgring: Michael Schumacher said in a surprise announcement that he would be a father for the 2nd time. Corina Schumacher is expecting their second child in April 1999.

"We only knew this since last Friday. I would love to have three or four children", said Schumacher. Michael has confirmed in the past he had moved to Switzerland to spend more time with his family and to get away from lively Monte-Carlo.

Although Michael has said after racing, his fantasy would be to buy a farm in Canada and play the claim, relaxing family man.
