Classic British Flight Sim

Micheal Schumacher is to race once again in F1 next season with Mercedes, as in the interview (see link) he is only coming back because of Ross Brawn.

It will be, I hope, an interresting F1 season watching Hamilton and Schumacher racing each other though I do hope that Michael plays clean, remember the incident when qualifying at Monacco he ran into the tyre wall on purpose?

Either way, I think that with the new rules being introduced i.e. no refuelling etc, we should now see drivers win on ability instead of pit stop strategies.

Nigel.

Of course, he actually won a Grand Prix whilst in the pits.

D.

It's a shame about the injury he sustained in his bike crash. It stopped him competing in this year's German Superbike championship on a Honda CBR1000RR. Now that would have been interesting!

...or turning in on Damon Hill having hit the wall in Adelaide...


...or losing his WC points in 1997 after a desperate attempt to take out championship rival and eventual champion Jacques Villeneuve - an incident which IMHO was potentially more dangerous than the whole Piquet affair.

It is a great shame that Mercedes should associate themselves with this man, who should never have been allowed on a racetrack again after the Hill and Villeneuve incidents

I basically do not care too much about Schumi!
My heart beats for Lotus. Even though it has nothing much to do with the old Team Lotus I am absolutely happy to have the brand back in the circus - with people who obviously care for its myth!

All the best,

Nick
