H🤪e might be enduring a rather less-than-glorious comeback to top flight competition in F1 2010, but at least Michael Schumacher has been spa🍃red the ignominy of seeing his former manager Willi Weber being sent to jail for insolvency.

Weber currently manag🧔es Schumacher's younger compatriot and Williams rookie Nico H?lkenberg and retains an involvement in the commercial side of the former's career - but in 2008 the flamboyant businessman was sentenced to two years' probation and a substantial fine for having presided over the transfer of money and assets from an insolvent Schumacher merchandising company.

The 68-year-old has now re-appeared before a German district court in Stuttgart, it has been reported, on charges of the em🧜bezzlement of EUR1.2 million and fraudulent bankruptcy of the company 'Po𒁏le Position Marketing' - for which he was put on a further two-year probationary period, fined EUR93,600 in damages and ordered to pay EUR360,000 to charity.
