Michael Schumacher helps Schuberth Develop Motorcycle Helmets
2008-05-14 16:00:00 German motorcycle helmet manufacturer Schuberth recently announced they have struck a deal with seven-time Formula 1 World Champion Michael Schumacher to be a test developer of their latest helmet designs and have completed their first collaborative effort, dubbed the Schuberth Race.
