Oh ! BTW, the rules were twisted to prevent Schumi and Ferrari and Bridgestone dominate another season. Remember last year - no tyre changes ? Yeah, that gave all the Michelin runners an advantage.
Schumi doesn't sulk the way Alonso does. He works hard even at this age. He has matured gracefully. He driving acumen is the best. His sense of placing backmarkers between him and his rivals is unmatched. Its only because of his "never-say-die" spirit that Ferrari bounced back from where they were.
And most importantly, he never says a word against the team - like someone already said. He doesn't bite the hand that feeds him. Unlike Alonso - who is unpopular amongst his own countrymen and the press in Spain has been having a field day ever since his comments last weekend.
Anyways, each of us can have our own reasons to support Ferrari, McLaren, Honda or Ranault or for that matter Red Bull Racing or whatever... and whichever driver.
For me, Schumi has been the best, will be the best.
Peace.
The real contest next year will be between the two FINNs - Kimi and Heidi. Watch out for the latter. He is super quick. And I might as well write off Alonso - unless McLaren Mercedes can turn things around 180 degrees. I'll come back to this thread at the end of 2007 season
