Michael Schumacher hints at retirement

[Redhead]

Kapel beat me to it

There might actually be some valid reasons for testing the 2004 car, apart from the fact that the 2005 car was crap.

Lets not forget, the 2005 car was a race winner.

Valid reason i gave u baccha..trust me

On the subject of Schumacher it would be good for the sport if he stays competitive in a competitive car but doesn't win. On the subject of Nico It's a real shame that he and Heikki can't continue their F2 battle this season. They are definately quick and it would be ideal if they were seen beating schu on topic: with inferior equipment ideally.

Hamilton and Schu will be team mates at Toyota in 08 and He'll blow Schu away. :burnout::burnout::burnout::burnout::burnout::burnout:

Lets not forget that the 2004 car was a red rocket and the regs suit a natural evolution of that car

Eddie Jordan believes Michael Schumacher is already discussing the idea of starting his own Formula 1 team when his contract expires.

Speaking to The Sun, Eddie Jordan said:

I believe the idea of Michael starting his own team is being discussed and I can see him doing it ... I wouldn't be surprised if he encouraged Volkswagen - perhaps using their Audi brand - to come to Formula One.

i.e. a valid reason, I must articulate better in future.

Joe Saward in a recent column in Auto Action made a convincing case the MS would try to end his career in a Deutsch environment, except he had him pegged for Macca/Merc. Cant see that happening now, but maybe Joe had the general direction correct ..........

JV, Noticed that Kappy does't post much these days ?

Oh yeah, were is Kapel these days ? He's probably chasing that source of his about those 25 days testing for Massa

Come back Champ, I need a challenger in the group

Mayb i got wrong info on Massa for 25 days testing the new car..it would have been 25 days testing of new car before the first race...
Sorry my Apologies

No need to apologise Kapel.

As you can see, Massa has driven the new car for just 4 days while Michael has probably done 20 days. No other team has given one of their drivers such a huge advatange in their new car - None.

So can you see the massive disadvantage Massa is already having at Ferrari and the huge advantage Michael gets over his team-mate and generally over the entire field given that he gets a car built for him + helper.

On the subject of Nico It's a real shame that he and Heikki can't continue their F2 battle this season. They are definately quick

Alonso - Kimi - Nico - Kovalainen
A Spaniard and 3 Finns (sort of ) - Those 4 will keep Formula 1 so exciting in the coming years

Oh dear, I keep impressing myself with my powers of prediction

Last year I predicted Michael Schumacher sets up his Bambino Series

He must get a black flag for illegal bodywork. He is cheating, and using the bootlid as an aerodynamic aid.

Clearly JV was the only inhabitant of planet F1 who realised the truth when MS hinted it might be "tata" for next season
