Oh right, talk about getting confused!

Schumi was far better than Damon. But then, very few are better than Schumi.

Damon did a fantastic job, and that's all what matters.

Very upset :'(

Even i have to admit (even though it hurts so much [lol]

)

Schumi is the greatest, most people hat him for being of a certain nationality but the guy was awesome.

Schumacher was something VERY special. I suppose Coulthard would also say he is as good as Schumacher.

I was a big fan off Schumacher in his early days (91,92,92,94), I even bought the T-shirt. Then he started trying to play mind games with Damo and I started to loose a bit of respect for him.

Then in 1997 when he tried to ram off Vill and he wouldn't own up to it. I was okay with him driving into Vill (it showed his commitment to win), but to start saying it was an accident was stupidity on his part.

I hope he does a book eventually and owns up to all the things he has done. I am not sure about the 1994 thing, I am 70% sure it was deliberate, but 30% of me is not sure.

Whatever has happened, he was the ultimate driver. Great no matter what you threw at him. I don't think he ever had a off day except that race after 9/11.

Would be good if he did do a book. I would buy it. Saying that i think any F1 fan with a bit of sense would too.

Do you think he'll return for a one-off? For instance if either Massa or Raikkonen are injured.... Or do you think that Ferrari would give the drive to Badoer or Gene?

I agree with most of that. However, Schumi made many mistakes in his last year, which at times made him look like a rookie.

After he's final year, I kind of lost my respect for him. Personally Alonso did a much better job last year, no mistakes at all.

This year, Hamilton is better than Alonso. It all changes very quickly!

Coulthard is not bad, it's just he's not great.

Red Bull need to get rid of him, and replace him with a younger driver, like Vettel, Glock or somebody similar.

I'm not really sure about Mark Webber. He's great at qualifying, but he's never been given a reliable car to show what he can really do.

Does anybody remember when Webber was running as high as second in last years Monaco Grand Prix? He was in contention for the win...until he's Williams blew up.

I remember it well... I PMSL at the time... You see Mark Webber and i don't see eye to eye, i have tried on numerous occasions to gain his autograph in the past and he does almost everything possible to get away from me.

Oh right, I never knew that. He seems okay with the media. Maybe he doesn't like the fans! >:((

Mark Webber was damn quick at Monaco 2006, he was fighting for the win. Such a shame he had to retire.

Personally, he should of stayed with Willimas. At least they're a team who are making steady progress. Where's Red Bull are un-reliable and slow.

Apparently he's normally good, but sees me and runs like a bloke who needs to loo quickly... I have never been nasty or rude but he seems to remember me for some reason. It's either that or there is another good looking bastard out there like me. [lol]
