With rumours flying around about an all-Schumacher line-up at Toyota in 2007, after Jarno Trulli's contract expires in 2006, 7-times World Champion Michael Schumacher has re-affirmed his position with regards to his future, and to Ferrari.

"If I continue after this season then it is 99 percent certain that it will be with Ferrari," Schumacher said in a meeting with the press at the annual ski-meeting in Italy. "I don't want to lie about it, I am just telling the truth, 99 percent is what it is."

"I think there is one percent for another possibility - if I actually decide to continue in F1," he said. "That doesn't mean we have to win the title but we have to be in a position to win."
