Everybody talks about how physically demanding F1 is. Since you can't stop the natural aging process, don't you have to wonder when Schumacher will lose a step? It's not like he's coming back at 35, he's much older than that(in sporting terms) and he signed a 3 yr. contract. If he rose to the top that would be a great achievement +.

I wasn't a Schumacher fan back in the day, he was too good, ice water in his veins, every drive calculated. But i did appreciate his talent.
His training regime was legendary, he's probably more fit than some 25yr olds and rumour is he kept up the training even though he was doing other stuff for three years, he'll be back on the podium shortly if the cars stay frontrunners.

Micheal Schumacher and Chuck Norris share common DNA.....
 
Australia this weekend.

Matchsticks ready to keep the eye lids from closing.

Uh, if its going to be anything like the last race, and all indications are that it will be, I will be getting my sleep as normal, and setting the DVR.

Have faith all ye, you can guarantee if this race is a snore fest they will be bringing in mandatory two pit stop races in the future.

Different track, should be a little bit more entertaining.

Yeah, I'll be up watching too. :-) I'm curious to see how Gascoyne and Lotus do..I was also interested to read that Virgin has been granted permission to redesign their chassis to allow a bigger fuel tank. Ooops.. :lol:
 
I managed to watch the first part of qualifying last night, then the matchsticks failed me.

Going back to the tried and tested Coffee in bulk.
 
I predict Button will win.
 
Pretty good race.

-Rain races are always fun
-Love that new Mercedes Pace car
-Schumi - sponsor whore ---> Monster and A stars
-bring back refuelling in the pit stops!!
-moving the green stripe to the outside edges of the tire --- smart!
-Did they screw up the graphics display at beginning of race? BMW Sauber Ferrari?

Schumi has his work cut out for him. Kubica, Vettel, the Ferraris are all strong opponents.

I predict he will still win a race this year.

Button doesn't get the respect he deserves, his call/decision won that race.

Brundle and Coulthard criticizing Button for stopping too early, then having to eat crow five laps later.

I have actually put him up higher in my list of goods drivers. last year I thought he was just a good driver in an outstanding car, but perhaps there is a bit more to him.

I think Hamilton is one of the best drivers there is but he came off as a bit of a whiner today.

Yeah, a lot of people here slated him because he won the championship and it was embarassing blah blah.. I think he's a pretty fair driver. Took a chance and paid off..sign a champion?

Just today?? :lol:
 
I was really upset that vettel's car broke down. He led the entire race, and drove really well, too bad.

As for hamilton's whining, you would be ****** too if you were called in for no reason.
