Apparently not as a full-time thing, but he's not ruling out the odd race. The relevant quote:

"This is not the start of a second career, even if I do a race from time to time it doesn't mean anything other than I do it because I want to enjoy myself. I just enjoy motorbiking.
"I don't have any ambitions to step into any kind of racing series. I'm also not presumptuous enough to imagine I could step into a professional series. I want to try myself on two wheels but one thing is sure, I will strongly take care not to go over the top."

he's always impressed me. easily the F1 equivilent of Rossi.

he was also i believe selected to play for the german football side as well wasn't he before he turned to F1 full time?
 
Impressive. I really like and respect people, esp. sportsmen, who have the ability to carry over certain skills to others. Maybe it's just because you sometimes think they cannot do anything else.

Don't think he got as far as the National team but he was reputedly easily good enough to have gone pro if he hadn't chosen motorsport.
