stuey650 Posted October 3, 2012 Share Posted October 3, 2012 would also love another year from Schumacher, okay Singapore was from far his best performance but he's shown some of his old form this year more so than his previous 2 years at Mercedes. A move to Ferrari would be brilliant, more likely to Sauber which would be a shame, I'd love to see him get another race win under his belt.

Obviously this forum is full of haters, but he has outperformed his team mate 15 years his junior this season and was the victim of poor reliability. Really disappointed Mercedes couldn't produce a car that could compete at the front. Everyone, including both drivers, need to take responsibility for that.

Lee R Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 Obviously this forum is full of haters, but he has outperformed his team mate 15 years his junior this season and was the victim of poor reliability. Nico Rosberg is currently on 93 points and Michael Schumacher is currently on 43 points. Yes i'm a hater. I still think it's quite a shame he's tarnished his legendary status by trying a 'come back'... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both cars finish. MSC finishes race ahead of Rosberg. China - Rosberg qualifies on pole, MSC 3rd. Rosberg wins race, MSC retires with loose wheel. Bahrain - Rosberg qualifies and finishes the race ahead of MSC. Spain - Rosberg qualifies ahead of MSC. MSC crashes out of race. Monaco - MSC qualifies pole, Rosberg 3rd. MSC retires from race with fuel pressure failure. Canada - Rosberg qualifies ahead of MSC. MSC retires from race with rear wing failure. Europe - Rosberg qualifies ahead of MSC. Both cars finish. MSC finishes ahead of Rosberg. Britain - MSC qualifies ahead of Rosberg. Both cars finish. MSC finishes ahead of Rosberg. Germany - MSC qualifies ahead of Rosberg. Both cars finish.

MSC finishes ahead of Rosberg. Italy - MSC qualifies ahead of Rosberg. Both cars finish. MSC finishes ahead of Rosberg. Singapore - MSC qualifies ahead of Rosberg. MSC retires from race afer running up the arse of another car. Read it, actually read it. Now, I know you're as blinkered as they come, but when his car hasn't failed, he has out performed Rosberg. Points total means very little when you get a ridiculous 25 for a win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lee R Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 I've read it. Rosberg has more points than him. If's and but's don't wash with me. Points wins the championship. Regardless of anything, I don't support either of the drivers. Brit drivers all the way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yule Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 (edited) It's at half mast today, folks, he's announced his retirement.

Sad to hear it, it would have been an amazing swansong if he could have topped the podium once more. There's still another 5 races for him to be on the podium again, he should go rather well round suzuka & interlagos if nothing else goes wrong for him. Don't forget this team built a championship winning car in 2009 under brawn, i don't understand how they're not challenging the front runners.

sidrick Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 (edited) The Brawn team had that mental under-car diffuser that year that basically raped the rest of the field, as well as a good engine. The diffuser was ruled illegal for the next season. Edit: or was it even before the end of the season?? Edited October 4, 2012 by sidrick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lee R Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 Indian GP at the weekend = Most. Boring. Race. Ever! yeah wasn't great. Most exciting bits were the first few corners with HAM/BUT/ALO and seeing Hamilton trying to chase Webber down in the last few laps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
