I cant wait to see Schumi back!!!!

F1 has just got 10 times more interesting  :D :D :D :D.

BMW have also announced that they are pulling out of F1, so that means that Kubica will be looking for a new team next season. Could he be a option for Ferrai? Maybe he will go to McClaren if Heiki is dropped or maybe Brawn if Rubens hangs up his helmet.

clean your ears...Nickelback's guitar work is awesome.

You're from Finland? I used to be a great fan of Mika! I've still a great photo of Mika on my pinboard. Still miss guys like him...... :)

Yeah I am from Finland, and Mika was great. I think that he was better than Kimi, but then again who am I to say really...

Schumi is back, working as savior for Bernie Ecclestone... It is everything he could have wished for, PR-vice...

Agreed. Mika was great and better than Kimi. Mika was the gentleman driver. As the story goes he was the only one ever respected by Schumacher. Right, Mika was a gentleman, Schumi never has been one!!

But still I'm looking forward to the race in Valencia and feels sad about that silly punishment for Renault. The Spaniards are not gonna like this since Alonso is very beloved in his country.

(And Massa is doing fine until my great relieve!!  :))

Is it just me or this feels like a trick in order to gain much-needed publicity for a sport that has suffered heavily from the economical crisis and the fights about the new rules? In addition, isn't Michael risking his myth by doing this thing? What if he fails miserably?

Huh? I don't think it was exactly "a trick" that Massa injured himself badly to gain much-needed publicity! Yeah, there was/is some trouble and I've noticed people are losing interest in the GP. It's since long I'm looking forward to a race though I've never been a Schumi fan. I can't deny though he's a great driver. Risking his myth? I don't think so. He's saving a lof off asses in the GP and I think it's kinda brave he dares to do so. If he fails he's still Schumacher with 7 titles. I don't see anyone beat that with all those young hungry dogs and advanced cars around.
The GP has began to lost its lustre for me.......and I'm not the only one.....

(My neighbours are very much looking forward to quiet Sunday afternoons btw lol  :D)

Please take the time and read my post a lot more carefully. You've completely misunderstood me. The whole "trick" thing I was referring to is the return of Schumi - NOT the injury of Massa for christ shake! The whole Schumi trick will certainly help increase the interest of people about Formula 1. It's not (just) replacing Massa. That was the exact meaning of my last post. In addition, I strongly disagree with your thoughts about Schumi's myth. Imo, yes, if he fails miserably to win races - or at least good places - he will be questioned. Yes, he's saving Ferrari atm, but I don't think he made the right choice. He had his go, he went to the top, he was the best, but now he's gone. There's no need to return, I'm sure Ferrari has enough money to hire someone else. Maybe he needs that glory thing once again, but I don't care. This feels like the last comeback of Michael Jordan. Pointless.

Oh sorry I misunderstood you, I'm Dutch so this isn't my first language.. :bow: :bow: :bow:
I also wrote that the GP has lost its lustre and my interest!! Further I mentioned that lots of people shall pay more attention now Schumi shall race again because this is the 2nd boring season! And for whatever reason Schumi (he's still working at Ferrari) is hired instead of someone else I think it's still brave to take that risk especially since you suggested he's also doing it for the glory!

Schumi has always been driven to win, by any means, atleast sometimes. He is also a bussiness man, who knows his opportunity when he sees one. I am certain that Schumi loves his game, driving in general that is, and for him it is actually win win situation driver and ferrari vice. He can help the sport again that has helped him so much before.
Although never been a Schumi fan myself, but rather on the side of Mika, Kimi, and Heikki, I still respect the man, and cannot wait when he starts his engines once again...

 I think Schumacher MAY well be a bit of a myth  :ninja:
The guy had the same chief engineer for all seven of his world championships, the name of this engineer?.....Ross Brawn
I hope, I do not wait.

Now bring back Jos Verstappen  :D

Seriously, it's great to have Schumi back for some races. I never was a fan of him, but I always respected him as the best driver of his generation. I wouldn't call him the greatest ever though, because there was kinda a lack of competition in his days and the competition changed all the time (Hill, Villeneuve, Hakkinen, Raikkonen, Montoya, Alonso) A driver like Senna raced in the same era as other great drivers like Alain Prost, Nelson Piquet, Nigel Mansell, besides that Senna didn't always have the right material. Schumi frankly only had non-top cars in 1992, 1993, 1996 and 2005.

LOL Jos Verstappen! I wonder if he and Schumi are still best friends. I didn't like at all what I've read him being a wife beater! What a bummer that was to me.  >(
I kinda miss all the drivers you mentioned. Also DC.....I liked DC so much. I'm only a woman.... ;) Doeiiiiiiiiiiiii
