    Haha yeah me and my friend were chatting about this earlier.

    Its still mathematically possible for him to win this year if he competes in every round. Imagine how impressive that would be.

        This will be the biggest test of the man in question... Arguably the best driver of a generation - this time NOT in the best car and with a certain Mr Brawn working for the competition. That and he's older... Either way should be interesting....

        How is Massa by the way - I haven't been following the news ?

          Last i heard he was still in intensive care, but concious and able to wiggle thumbs and toes. The only thing they seem worried about is possible permanent damage to his left eye. He will be ok, if he will race again is unknown.

              Very freaky accident - especially within a week of a similar freak that killed the boy Surtees... And they say lightning doesn't strike twice !!!!

                well... at the moment schu said that he can´t do it because of his neck and head problems. they said that he had broken bones in the neck and head because of a bad crash on the motorcycle...

                it´s a great pity that we cannot see that great comeback..

                  Its a shame if he can't come back into F1 but personally I think he is a cheat and well known for it so shouldn't be supported as much as he has been.

                  No denying he is the a world class driver though, you don't become 7 times world champion from being rubbishbut I think the way he won those titles were at times not in the right circumstances.

                  As pointed out Schuey without Brawn and in a far from perfect Ferrari would make some excellent racing which tbh is all I really want to see

                    This also clearly demonstrates just how hard F1 actually is, if the driver is not fit enough ...which is the main reason why I sneer at footballers, bunch of jessies...

                      sorry mate but in my opinion that´s rubbish..

                      the only thing that can be discussed if it was ok or not was the adelaide crash with damon, but on the other titles there are no things to be discussed.

                      you remember that Schu became not champion after the crash with Villeneuve in 97... means this thing doesn´t need to be discussed in that way or in that context. In my opinion was the crash in 97 the worst thing he´d ever done and he got punished for that enough.

                      what do you think about Lewis BTW? remember his driving style in Monza last year where he pushed two times different other pilotes nearly into the grass. also some things that are not ok AND don´t tell me now that this was not the race that decided the championship, no matter in what race whoever does such things, these things are not ok - no matter if Schu, Hamilton, Alonso, Villeneuve, Hill, Senna.....

                      But as you said perhaps you have to follow a "hard line" in order to achieve something in that business. And all of them made their way in F1..

                      well let´s have a look, can´t wait for the fights between Vettel, Rosberg, Hamilton and Alonso in the Ferrari. This is going to be good stuff for excellent races..

                      cheers
