F1 Fanatic

I’m going to get straight to the point. Somehow people forget that Michael Schumacher is something between a god and a machine. He doesn’t make judgments of error. But seriously now, the moment he got caught […]

Schumacher certainly commands respect, as you guys mentioned above. Being the greatest athlete to ever grace the sport will inevitably gather attention to anything he says. Watching the interview you see that even […]

Get rid of Abu Dhabi! Burn Valencia to the ground! Forget about India and South Korea! Turn the lights of at Singapore! Bring back the old Hockenheim and Imola. Race twice a year at Spa. Put in Mugello for good […]

I wish with all my heart that violent protests break out in Singapore, Valencia, Abu Dhabi , India and South Korea as well, so that we won’t go racing there. Then I also hope the mayors of the cities of Spa, […]

Is this an indirect acknowledgment from Pirelli that Schumacher assessment is correct?

@keithcollantine In that case I am going to give every European GP a rating of “terrible” because I loathe the idea of Liberal Democracy, and the permission of those countries to let themselves be overrun by […]

@geemac How on earth can you compare the death camps in the Boer War to the notion of “Apartheid”. Children were starved to death in camps during the former, because the professional British army were being beaten […]

@jcost “No war in South Africa or Namibia during the Apartheid years”? Have you ever heard of something called the South African Bush (or Border) War? That war lasted from 1966 to 1989 until the National Party […]

@bosyber Please never ever again refer to the Dutch and the Afrikaners as “we”. The Netherlands were NOT part of the Boer War, which was a war of independence and freedom fought between the two sovereign Afrikaner […]

@cornflakes It’s not clear why you view my comparisons as “inherently flawed”. I used them as analogy. Your idea that arguing about holding a GP in Nazi Germany is inherently flawed yet again refers to the point I […]

I am not attacking Keith’s opinion or his article. I made a general statement. Your last paragraph is exactly what I am talking about – what you refer to as “clear wrongs”. Who are you (or anyone else) to decide […]

Is this an appropriate topic? What does the opinion of the average F1 fan count when it comes to the rights or wrongs of a specific form of government? F1 has nothing to do with the history, philosophy, religion […]

No I am certainly not ignoring the fact you are referring to. It is a possibility yes, to kick start a career after a first victory, as Hakkinen for example showed. And he was and has always has been a great […]

He did not frighten Schumacher. Schumacher doesn’t get frightened. Schumacher said Hakkinen was the opponent he respected the most. Not that I rate Hamilton that highly, but filling the sport with lesser drivers […]

Would probably have given it a 10, had Rosberg not been the victor.

Rosberg only needs to do another 444 Grands Prix to claim another 4 victories, and then he’ll be on equal terms with his never been father.

SV: “Wenn ist das Nunstück git und Slotermeyer? Ja! Beiherhund das Oder die Flipperwaldt gersput!”
MS: “There were zwei peanuts, walking down the straße, und one was ‘assaulted’… peanut.”

Satan clearly on McLaren’s side.

That last picture looks much more like FW de Klerk to me.

That’s what I’m wondering. Mercedes are not running the exhaust blown diffuser. So how should we interpret Schumacher’s pace?
