FERNANDO is a fantastic driver, pretty close to MICHAEL today.

However, and I dont say this only on behalf of his latest remarks and regardless if he ever really made them, FERNANDO makes still the impression of a boy rather than a man. Altogether he totally lacks charisma and while many of the latest F1 driver generation dont have such outgoing personalities as some of yesteryear at least they leave an adult impression.

A great man is leaving the sport, and boys talking wont even provoke an answer. Tiger`s view reflects the majority...

Majority of what??? Tiger's view is just that... his view. He cannot speak for everyone else.

Poor Roger.. I didn't realise he was so delusional. :oops:
delusion is in the eye of the beholder
As is the opinion of greatness. We all have someone in some sport who we think of as being "the greatest" but even coming from Tiger Woods or anyone else for that matter does not make that statement a fact.. only an opinion.

Hey guys, dont start crying :cry:

Off course we are all entitled to our opinion....its just that TIGERs as that from another great sportsman is more relevant :shock:

He appreciates MICHAELs achievements because he knows how hard it is to be extremely determined just like talented... :P

But maybe Im wrong and MICHAEL actually prefers to be judged by relative nobodies... :lol:

That is very true but I wonder if Alonso should be making such statements at this stage. He doesn't really need any more 'made up' penalties in the final 3 races. I suppose they are not racing in Italy again but I think it may be even more risky in China or Brazil :shock: :shock: :shock:

But then why not, why should he stay quiet and not say what he feels. Actually thinking about it, I think it is good that he said this. It shows he says what he thinks and that reminds me of another cool driver :D

Let us know who wins the argument you are having with yourself :?: :lol:

Only time will tell how Michael will be remembered.

Tiger is a relative nobody when it comes to motorsport :shock: :shock: .

BTW: I don't consider Michael a sportsman cause by definition a sportsman is "a person whose conduct and attitude exhibit sportsmanship."
And sportsmanship's definition is "Conduct and attitude considered as befitting participants in sports, especially fair play, courtesy, striving spirit, and grace in losing

:shock: :shock:
