Massa & Schumi play for charity - 5th March 13:46pm GMT

Michael Schumacher and co-driver Felipe Massa will lead a Ferrari team consisting of other crew members in a charity soccer match against Bahrain League champions Riffa prior to the Gulf Air Bahrain Grand Prix.

The match, a charity event, will be held on Wednesday at the National Stadium with a 7pm kickoff. Entrance is free but donation boxes will be placed at the stadium for people who wish to contribute.

"A majority of people around the world always choose soccer as their favourite sport, and as it is my second favourite after racing I thought of combining the two sports to make a memorable event for charity," said match organiser and former rally driver Yasmin Alhilli.
