Schumacher, 43, first retired in 2006 after 15 seasons only to mount a comeback with the newly-founded Mercedes team in 2010, but failed to add to his record tally of 91 career wins.
The German has won more races than any other driver in Formula 1's 62-year history, but has failed to reach his previous heights since returning to the sport.
Schumacher will race for Mercedes until the end of the season and is with the team for this week's Japanese Grand Prix.
At his peak while at Ferrari, Schumacher won five straight titles from 2000–2004 and was almost unbeatable at times, winning all but five of the 18 races in the 2004 season.
He won his first two titles with Benetton in 1994 and 1995 before switching to Ferrari for the 1996 season, where he battled drivers such as Damon Hill, Mika Hakkinen and Fernando Alonso for titles.
