As im sure you'l know good old Schumacher retires from F1 today, so i feel its only right to dedicate a thread to him.
Post your messages here in respect to micheal, who is probaly the best F1 driver ever.
Name: Michael Schumacher
Nickname: Schumi or Schuey
Date of Birth: 3rd January 1969
Nationality: German
Place of Birth: Hürth-Hermülheim, Germany
Height: 1.74m
Weight: 68kg
Residency: Vufflens-le-Château, Switzerland
Status: Married to Corinna Betsch since Tuesday 1st August 1995
Children: Gina-Maria, daughter (DOB 19/01/97) and son Mick (DOB 22/03/99).
Family: Rolf, Father, Elizabeth, Mother and Ralf, Brother (DOB 30/6/75).
His Hobbies...
Soccer, tennis, swimming, skiing.
His Manager...
Michael's manager since 1989 has been Willi Weber. Schumacher was to receive a free drive in his WTS team for three years, Weber in return receives 20% of all income Michael earns from motor races. The initial agreement was to last 10 years, however it was later extended for a further several years.
His Helmet...
Michael explains how his helmet's paint scheme came about:
"From the area of the visor you see the traditional German black-red-gold. I chose the colours years ago with a friend of mine and I changed it only slightly, mostly to include sponsor decals. The blue circle with the white stars on the top was his idea. After joining Ferrari I added the prancing horse on the back. "
Since the European GP in 2000, Michael has raced with a modified helmet design. The blue circle on the top in now painted light red. The white Marlboro stripe around the top is also now red. The change was made to prevent confusion between himself and Barrichello, whose design was confusingly similar.

Yeah he was the best F1 driver ever. And he really deserved 1st position in his last race today.
I am a Renault fan, but i would like to congratulate Michael with all my heart..

I was annoyed at Fischicella because i think he should have let Schumi pass him. I mean he is right behind you, and cutting him off does no good to you. Why not let him go, he will pass you anyway? Whatever.. |

I never liked him and it's because of Ferrari's dominance three years ago that I was turned off F1 racing...I used to love it but it became boring.

He used to be kinda greedy and arrogant, but he grew more mature in time. And i believe he proved himself as the best driver. |

yep many people stupidly think michael schumacher is only as good as he was because of ferrari, this is not true he won the championship twice in a row with Benetton and then moved to ferrari who were at this time crap, as soon as he moved their ferrari saw an improvement it still took 4 years to win a championship with ferrari, this is when there dominance started and all because of one brilliant driver, michael schumacher
