I thought this thread was going to be about Paul Ffelan

Ahhh...

Both drive red cars.... easy mistake to make!!!

Dazz:D

unfortunetly unless there is a miracle of near biblical proportions he will not win his 8th world title , i can't believe he is having all the bad luck that he missed out on in the previous 6 seasons in the final 2 races ,

Maybe so... he has still blown everyone away in qual 2....

Good riddance.

The guy maybe a good driver, the best ever he isn't.

Good riddance to him! Should have been stripped of at least 2 world titles.

guess the pressure of being the redbaron got to him

He is a legend. But the best therever was ? No.

Every pole in the world will show that's Ayrton Senna.

Even that pillock commentating for ITV claims he is the greatest ever. Well he can't even commentate so what does he know?

Race over.. :rofl: :rofl:

there is only one true great redbaron.

Blah blah...

The facts speak for themselves...

7 times world champ... and every record bar the number of GP starts...

when whoever you support beats these then you will have a case..

Yes he is above those of his immediate time, but put into context he had not too much competition, usually only 1 driver a season able to challenge him.

Would he beat a Senna,Prost,Fangio, Clark or Lauda...I doubt it.

Oops, I came on this thread thinking it was about dubious moderation and trolling

Problem is that if the events of 1994 didn't occur, there's no way on Earth Schumacher would have won those titles, and you know it.

Auf Wiedersehen Schumi , und Danke Schon! The German GP wont be the same without him , I can't see the fans going mental over his little bro , or Nick Heidfeld. Who to support now?....Im thinking Lewis Hamilton if he makes it to F1 this season coming.

Sorry but no one knows it, Schuey raced Senna and won and vice versa, it may have made more interesting viewing tho as Senna was not afraid to drive in the same shall we say 'cavalier' manner as Michael. At the end of the day the guy was in a class of his own and the rest of the contenders where still bloody skillfull wether people call them mediocre or not.

PS rooting for Button from here on in.

I don't understand all this Senna, etc was better than him. At end of the day he's made history and I've been lucky enough to see him do it. I wasn't alive back in the 60's or 70's but I've been able to enjoy the career of the most successful F1 driver ever.

Who to root for now is a tricking question, however I will enjoy seeing the new drivers make there mark on F1.

I think the point that is being made is that He was the "best" driver in the era that saw much of the car control taken from the driver- traction control, paddle shifts, mlti-mapped engines etc removed much of the skill from getting the car round the track

as Jackie Stewart said " If I had made as many mistakes as Schuey in one race i'd have been dead in my first race"

There's only one REAL red baron!

All being fair though all Schumachers opponents had the same 'advantages' as all of Jackie Stewarts,etc didn't have. In their respective era's no one achieved what Scumacher did in his.

People say Button has the best driving style in F1 currently but that's not what counts it's the winning that does and based on that Schumacher is the best F1 driver.

I can't stop the main memory of his career being the way he ran Damon Hill off the track three times in one season. The bloke's an arrogant ****, however good he may be.

Neither do I; one of the few times they both had about equal machinery (Interlagos 94) Schumi totally owned Ayrton.

we all know your only aloud driver aids in a car if those tw**s in the red want them, take traction controle, they had it but no one could prove it, so they made it legal for all. but the forementioned tw**s had run a full seson with it. shue was good but his car was better!
