Smooth but detected! ;) It doesn't have anything to do with how I feel about him though. Perhaps it would if I were a die-hard F1 fan like I am a football fan. He's good but I just feel the car behind the man doesn't get the credit it deserves. Credit that instead goes wrongly to him.

Sorry, couldn't help it :D

Irvine with his Jaguar, you mean? I know... And you agree with me? :dazed:

Perhaps overrated is not the key word. What I meant was that people tend to ONLY look at the driver and ignore what type of car he drives. Which, in the case of Schumacher and Ferrari makes a great difference imo. In other words: all hail goes to the driver when the vecile and the team behind...

Now you tell me! ;) Anyway, it was a good moment to sum up my opinion in one line!

If he wins, it is both because he's a good driver AND because he has an excellent car. I honestly think he would have a much harder time winning (though I still believe he would win a lot) if he drove another vehicle. To sum up my opinion: He is good, much better than average but also...

Never implied such a thing. Was it not you who suggest Formula 1 was team-efford? ;)

:groan: :D

Hey, if you win you get a pay-rise and Schumi wins. It's not like they could get away with sacking him anyway...

Well no, not really. You just need to have steel nerves and a 67 point advantage for that... But I'll admit his driving impresses even me at times!

The Benneton Not any idiot but I'm sure that if he would switch places with say, Eddie Irvine, Jacques Villeneuve or even Jos Verstappen he might find it A LOT more difficult to win races. My point is that, contrary to public opinion, a large part of Schumi's success comes from the fact...

Are you saying that the driver is not on his own during the race when it REALLY matters? Is he not the one steering? The Ferrari 'factory' & team provide GREAT cars, it's a team efford to that extend. Now I would like to see what happened if someone else drove it.

What I'm saying is that Michael Schumacher would have a hard time winning prices like that if he drove another car or if everyone else drove the same car as he! He's good, I won't deny, but overrated because he has such an EXCELLENT vehicle!

Michael Schumacher only wins because he drives Ferrari. I'd like to see him in one of the crap cars that fails every single race!
