Odd that Michael had fastest lap over Alonso, fastest man to the back of the grid, way to go BS F1

i’m thinking bernie might have a word or two in his ear. something like – “you keep ruining my sport, isn’t it about time you took a break?”

I’m thinking the same, maybe Michael will call it quits and retire at the end of the season. I suppose it depends on his mindset:
1. It is now time to retire. I have lost the respect of other drivers and I should go quietly.
2. I want to put right what I did wrong and show the world I am still the best.

I leaning towards #1.

Julia, I think you should tune in to the race tomorrow. Alonso will probably run off into the distance from the get-go, but Raikkonen is in the hunt if he can make a good start and Webber could throw up a surprise as well. And Schumacher, Massa and Fisichella will be determined to make up places and capatilise on retirements. It’s gonna be a cracker of a race, and I haven’t said that in about 5 years as well.

I’m afraid that just made me laugh – serves him right!

I might even watch the race tomorrow – now that’s about the first time I’ve said that about an F1 race for at least 5 years.

It isn’t the first time Schumacher has been called a cheat. I realise that fans of drivers will stand by them no matter what, but Jerez 1997 was out and out wrong. This one is a little bit more ambiguous though, but the stewards have ruled and I’m sure he’ll race just as hard and just as determined. Knowing Schumi, he’ll probably go one to win the race tomorrow!

I don’t fancy Ferrari’s chances of scoring any points tomorrow! They dominate the back row of the grid, so their only chance is if everyone else writes each other off in the first corner!

I can only imagine Schumacher’s reaction to this. I wonder if he feels like racing tomorrow, knowing that he has been called a cheat?
