After months of speculation, Jean Todt—the former Ferrari team principal and longtime boss of Michael Schumacher—has officially confirmed his return to Formula 1 in a new advisory role.

Todt, who masterminded Ferrari’s golden era alongside Schumacher in the early 2000s and later served as FIA president, announced that he will be rejoining the F1 paddock later this season. Though he didn’t specify which team he’ll be working with, insiders suggest he’s aligning with an ambitious squad aiming to climb the grid—possibly Audi-Sauber or Andretti-Cadillac.

“F1 has always been part of who I am,” Todt said in a statement. “This opportunity allows me to contribute once again to a project I truly believe in.”

His return is expected to bring a wealth of experience and strategic insight to his new team, especially as the sport heads into a transformative period ahead of the 2026 regulation changes. Many believe his involvement could be a game-changer for an emerging outfit.

The F1 community has welcomed the news with excitement, seeing it as a chance to revive some of the spirit and brilliance of a legendary era.
