saw that on facebook....

I almost wanna blame the nissan driver for that....looks like the porsche was following the racing line and didnt see the nissan but the nissan was already done with the curve and should have been a little bit further away from the porsche...

either way, what do i know about racing

I knoww so many smart cameras but highways are ok usually..
Not Switzerland though, have couple cousins there. Don't wear your seatbelt and pass from a green light or stop at a red light...next day you get a ticket mailed to you

^^^ well back in the days the car were more than a 1000hp as well....

so you are basically comparing apples and oranges....Aryton is a legend and so was Schumi (before he decided to return with Mercedes)....

to each his own....

even if his performance was "decent" in the MB he wudnt have lost respect (atleast from me)....he is a great driver and am not taking it away from him.....

kinda loved his races coz he is just so entertaining but at the same time, hated his races as it was Schumi from pole position to podium LOL

2002, Schumi was around 33 years old.
Senna was 34 when he died (around best time of his career)

Schumi raced with Senna you guys know that.. when he was like 22 years old.
And everyone though he was going to be the new Senna.
That young and what people started talking about him...
Was he better than Senna? No way..
But for that age he was good

That's how you could compare Schumi with Senna.
Vettel with Schumi at age of 22? NOOOOOO way of course.
Don't think Vettel could do much with those cars in that time

People could hate the guy that always wins like Vettel last year but... around 2000 it wasn't like that
Too much competition
It becomes the opposite way, everyone loves the winner (Schumi), hates the one that follows him or gives him kard time (Hakkinen)

Not like before now.. may be that's why I don't even remember the last race I watched

Schumi did well from age 22 to 35-36
Did anyone say he was better than Senna? Nope, even himself

Senna became people's heart. He improved F1, he helped community, and so many stuff..
+ one of the biggist was, when they kicked Senna and put Prost at front (when Prost didn't deserve) many, he improved by himself.

Not talking about the way he was driving.. He is the best everyone knows.
How could you know where the grip is. The guy is dancing on the asphalt, instead of going straight.

Schumi as he tasted F1 back then and now, of course makes him one of the bests. But yeah until MB.. but for that age, sometimes you say still good..

I forget where I heard this, but someone said (may have been Clarkson actually), that most racing car drivers talk to the crew chief during the race, but they just answer questions with yes or no responses.

You could hold a conversation with Schumi in the middle of the race, and it wouldnt even bother him.
