Apr.10 (GMM) Occasional test driver Michael Schumacher will be back at the wheel of Ferrari's formula one car as testing resumes at the Circuit de Catalunya next week.

According to reports in the Italian press, the 39-year-old German's F2008 single seater will be equipped with simulated 2009 levels of downforce and Bridgestone's latest development slick tyre.

Regular race drivers Felipe Massa and Kimi Raikkonen are also slated to join the Barcelona action, which precedes the forthcoming Spanish grand prix at the same venue.

Massa will drive on the first two days of the test, and Raikkonen will round out the action on day three.
