There are people who have achieved everything they wanted in life. One of these people is Michael Schumacher, who was born in North Rhine-Westphalia. No other Formula One driver has made it to the podium as often as the seven-time world champion. Yet his success story began rather experimentally: before becoming the most successful Formula One driver of all time, Michael started his career on a modified go-cart with a moped engine. Even when he was driving the fastest cars in the world, Michael, together with his team, constantly tried to improve them. And now that he has achieved everything in Formula One, Michael Schumacher has turned to face new challenges – on two wheels instead of four. A typical North Rhine-Westphalian.
