F1 Legend Michael Schumacher Announces Retirement

[Leighton]

did you guys see Alonso cry like a baby also haha, what a looser.

And now Renault are claiming the whole thing is fixed! Riotess stuff! The hatred of Schumacher is amazing.

There's also more chance of him racing his go-karts than the mickey mouse Nascars.

[Elmoz]

I wonder if he'll try Nascar, since its more popular then any other racing these days.

nascar is popular in USA, but in Europe i dont think so.

Montoya will be at nascar cause he couldnt handle Formula 1

As seen before if you really are a fan of F-1, there are many forms to win the races and the championships. Times hitting the rival (see vid), others declare systems considered valid before illegal, others calling the aid of the commissioners so that they give to the team playing local a little help...

Evidently the winner of this world-championship will be the one who in Brazil has more points but the World knows that Alonso is the only real champion of this 2006 and it is very sad that a ex--champion and a legend team, to be perpetuated, must make use of dodgy maneuvers like everyone could see this weekend.

The damage that bothers me is not the one that is made to a pilot individually, not even if that pilot is Spanish, but the whole competition, fans, the whole crowd who support this economically buying the cars that win on the tracks and not at the office...

And let's see what happen in the last 3, I can't wait already, hope its nothing like this:

Good
Dirty bastard

[Fadingtoblack]

He was a great driver, not so much a great person though!

I still remember him taking out, Damon Hill I think it was when all Hill had to do was finish the race to win the championship. It's that sort of driving that gave him his bad reputation.

Very talented driver, but I think the sport will be better for his retirement, we all remember the last couple of seasons where you knew who was going to win before every race (though that could've also been due to Ferrari spending about 10times as much per race than every other team )

[Danallica]

Yeh he was talented, but in my mind he will always be tarnished my his dirty tactics that he didnt need to use

[scottph]

I've never been a fan of his, but you gotta admit the man is, was, and probably always will be the most successful racing-driver in history, and that's worth a lot.

[Neorrr]

good point, he is and always be the most successful, but not a legend, never the best IMO.

In the end: Alonso's engine blew up. Because of the penalty Renault had to rev it up, maybe it blew up because of that or maybe did't. Anyhow, it's clear that Ferrari has fastest car in the grid right now.

Alonso is good driver, we saw that in Hungary GP this year. But in 2005, Alonso won championship because Räikkönen had so many technical difficulties. It was shame.

Man those great old fights with Hakkinen, I dont think we will get any good fights like that again
