Great Schumi leaves F1 - Toyota Yaris Forums

Katana · 09-10-2006, 09:41 AM

Well it appears that Michael Schumacher decided to leave F1 after the end of this racing season, following his announcement after winning the Monza GP...

Well he is in my opinion the BEST ever F1 driver

and most of us we will miss him.

Thanks for all the good moments Michael that you have given us all these years!

One of the greatest heroes/villains of F1....

He had a great run. A class act.

But, I'm glad to see him go.

Katana · 09-11-2006, 03:08 AM

Well I hope to see someone else filling his shoes!

Now it is Kimi Raikonnen-Felipe Massa as far as the 2007 Ferrari line up is concerned.

I can say I'll seriously miss him. BUT he was/is a heck of a pilot. I wish I could be a 100th of the driver he is!
However, I need to stick to my country roots and say that the best driver ever is Juan Manuel Fangio!! He did what Schumi did for his time and age... And with style ;)!!

Katana · 09-11-2006, 10:44 AM

In my opinion, the best 3 drivers of all time in F1 are Juan Manuel Fangio,Ayrton Senna and of course Michael Schumacher.

However it's clear that we cannot compare them with each other!

TrancosRt · 09-11-2006, 04:58 PM

I'm not comapring them. I said he did what Schumi did, for his time. In those days, the driver had more influence in the results than the car by itself.
I'm not saying Schumacher is not a godlike driver, but after the fierce F1A new car regulations, he didn't do so good, did he?

Katana · 09-12-2006, 07:22 AM

Yes exactly.

In F1 there are a lot of politics.Any team that manages to adjust to the new regulations every year, she will propably win the championship.

The big question is however if one of the current drivers will manage to fill in his shoes.

Schumacher is retiring? OK, then I guess this agreement I had with him no longer stands, we agreed that I would not race F1 as he wanted the limelight :D

Katana · 09-26-2006, 02:53 AM

Then the deal is off!

Haha!

eTiMaGo · 09-26-2006, 03:51 AM

and we'll soon see the first Yaris to join the F1 championship mwhahahahah

By watching the videos of the forum, it seems that the RS version of our car is faster than the TF106, so you still have a chance of beating them!!!
