Michael Schumacher raced in his final race at the 2006 Brazilian Grand Prix.
Here are some of his amazing achievements:
249 Races
154 Podiums
76 Fastest Laps
68 Pole Positions
91 Wins
7 World Championship including 5 in a row
He has 40 wins more than Alain Prost who is second in the most number of wins. (Isn't it interesting that the top 4 figures are: 91 M Schumacher, 51 Prost, 41 Senna and 31 Mansell!!)
He equals Alberto Ascari with the most number of consecutive wins at 7.
He has the record for consecutively finishing in the points (24 races in a row)
He has the record for consecutively finishing on the podium (19 races in a row)
He sure has raised the bar much higher for anyone to get close to some of those records.
Thank you and we wish you all the best in your retirement.

I hope the next generation of drivers are so successful that they will all fight to break these records simultaneously. Formula 1 will then become more enjoyable for no-fans to watch.Ed wrote:Michael Schumacher raced in his final race at the 2006 Brazilian Grand Prix.

What is the statistical probability? 
It's got to be very improbable indeed Lewis Hamilton & Jenson Button World Champions
