Damn, you beat me to it. Although I was going to say that both of you applied for the job...

If not VR or KM, how about Sato? Alex Yoong? Bourdais? Soon to be Pinquet?

Nah, I would never apply for it. Besides, white Nomex and bland white helmets aren't my thing.

I was thinking more like, 'Move upside and let the man go through'

Or how about LLCoolJ's "Don't call it a Come Back"

Default Jordan 1st to comment on Schumacher come back

Schumacher ready for comeback says Jordan
29 July 2009


Former Formula 1 team owner Eddie Jordan was the first to have offered Michael Schumacher the opportunity to race in Formula 1. Back in 1991 Schumacher started his incredible career in F1 at Spa-Francorchamps and now, 18 years later, the 40-year-old German will return at Ferrari to replace Felipe Massa. According to Jordan he is absolutely ready to get back in the car.



"Michael Schumacher is absolutely hard core," Jordan told the BBC. "I think whether he is 20 or 40 makes little difference - his reactions may be a millisecond away, but then he was a millisecond better than everyone else previously so I think he's just levelled it out.

"It will be a big, big wake-up call to a lot of those young drivers out there because they will be looking over their shoulders big time."

I wouldn't want my mirrors filled with red and this coming at me...

Ha!!

Someone call Montoya, he's fed up with NASCAR, we can find him a car for the rest of the season. What's Villeneuve up to?

Last race I watched, a Ferrari ended up on the podium...
