The discussion regarding the merits of Schumacher and his current skill levels are interesting but misses one point. Like it or not F1 is a business and nothing sells like attention and MS has brought attention to F1 this year like no other driver. That is why he will be there next year and that is why this discussion is so long and heated. As much as I hate to give the troll credit but the only driver that would bring more attention (and discussions here) is Danica. Remember the nickname for F1 is "The Circus" and it takes PT Barnum to bring in the crowds. Frankly there are too few true racing purists to support the series.

Tedster, I agree with you 100%. Even if MS continues to lag behind, he at least stirred the pot with his return (at least initially).

2 stop vs 1 stop strategy for MS and MH, respectively, plus the lack of downforce on the Ferrari and the slipstream effect on the A1 Ring's longer straights. Makes perfect sense.

This week he and his Alonso man boy love association members have come out of the closet to rejoice and wave their rainbow flags

Red Bull should have run away with this WDC and WCC and we should be talking about the last 2 races of the year being irrelavent. Alas, all the ALonso fan boys will have to have their heart broken at the end of the season.
Wouldn't it be poetic justice if 'Nando blew an engine at Suzuka?
