Schumi to fill in for Massa?

Ayrton Senna

 

[killadoob]

Yup that is also why they reckon the ham is up there with the best

Once he had a good car there was nobody near talented enough to beat him until alonso came along and we all know alonso is an awesome driver as well.

damn straight, was never an alonso fan. but i seem to shout for him more and more these days. Used to be a Kimi fan, but the guy has no drive (except for this last race, he did seem far more motivated)

But Alonso is the dark horse. and if renault sort out the car.... cause we know that engine is fantastic!

 

[killadoob]

Yea i am just pointing out though that only when a really talented driver came along did shummi get beaten.

 

[JK8]

I have a different spin on the Alonso thing...
I think Shumi didnt push that hard during his later races...

Renault had an awesome launch control, if you remember them at the starts, they would take 4 or 5 places in the start alone...

As for Senna, hard to say who was better, in terms of stats Shumi is best, and we will never know who was the best between them.

 

[JK8]

Yea i am just pointing out though that only when a really talented driver came along did shummi get beaten.

I wouldnt say Alonso is better, I think Shumi was so good that anyone that posed a tiny threat was branded as a "good driver"...

Remember the Montoya move, lol how did that end?

 

[killadoob]

I never said he was better, i said it took a talented driver to beat shummi something that was not around during his dominant rein.

Alonso is a good driver, i think he could have been a legend if he had not got stuck with a dog of a car. Saying alonso had a better car is like saying shumi won all his titles in a better car.

 

[SirFooK'nG]

@killa what u think bout Nakajima, Kovalainen and Piquet - I think they should be dropped!

 

[killadoob]

Yup piquet must go, nakajima not as good either but kov should stay because mclaren want one dominant driver, they do not want another alonso story if you ask me. So i can't see him going but yea i would replace him with someone better

 

[SirFooK'nG]

there were rumours about Sébastien Loeb joining F1. Hell that would be interesting!

Indeed it would!!! He's already done a fair amount of driving for Peugeot in the Le Mans...

 

[SirFooK'nG]

I can't remember now, but I'm sure he did a couple of laps in either a Renault or a Ferrari earlier on this year!

 

[killadoob]

Are you not thinking of rossi hey?

 

[SirFooK'nG]

nah, I know he also did some laps... and pretty good ones too. but that was a while ago!

Here you go http://www.formula1.com/news/interviews/2008/11/8720.html
it was a Red Bull car... But it seems it was just something he did for fun!

Sienna was the best ever. Nuff Said

Jody Sheckter, then Shumi

Schumacher is an arrogant asswad who happened to be able to drive a bit. He very often had the benefit of the best equipment, as evidenced by mediocre (by F1 standards) teammates often shadowing him for a 1-2 finish.

His '94 championship came after he deliberately ran Hill off the road (after himself smashing into the barriers), and he only lost the '97 championship because a similar stunt (this time directed at Villeneuve) backfired.

Bernie and Max turned him into the face of Formula 1 and he has the association of Ferrari International Assistance (also known as the FIA) to thank for most of his success. He is a pillock.

 

[Serqet]

Alonso is a good driver but damn he is a pr|ck.

 

[wpswart006]

No shummi was just the best driver by a mile, you could see from his younger days with benetton and even before that you could see he had some major talent. It was not just the car that was so good.

Sadly the people who do not like shummi will say that it is the car but he is one of the most talented GP drivers ever in my opinion.

+11

He didn't at first.

He made it the best equipment.
Hill was a p#ssy

Took awhile for ferrari to get on top of things, it is not like he walked into ferrari and dominated from day 1.
