Schumacher happy to bow with seventh place

Ex-world champion Michael Schumacher has said he is happy with the way he bowed out of Formula One in Sunday's Brazilian Grand Prix when he finished seventh

“It’s strange that I finished my career with a seventh place finish — that’s how it started, with seventh in my first qualifying (at the 1991 Belgian Grand Prix),” Schumacher told German magazine Stern. “And with seven world titles: the number was a good ending.”
