I'll say schummi is a good driver, but still not the best. His acheivements are overhyped. for one, all of his records are set when F1 drivers have more races to drive, and more points to gain. Remember that during the times of Prost and Senna, winners will only get 9 points. Now they got 10.

Thus the only thing that he really can boast about is Win/GP entered.

Look at the comparison of Poles
Schummi - 68/247 = 27%
Senna - 65/162 = 40%!!!

the numbrs does not tell the bigger picture. Fangio won 5 WC when he was near 50! If F1 had started earlier than 1950, he could have easily won more. Not to mention that he also raced in many more races like the Mille Migilia rally. Schummi cannot compare to that.

The tendency of getting killed in F1 is high in the past. But, thanks to current safety standard, rules and technology, it has indeed becomes safer.

Schuey might be one of the best if not the best. But, he equally has some many incidents and 'dark sides' that might not go down well with some of the F1 fans.

There are a lot 'if'. What if the accident didnt happen on Senna? What if this and what if that...... but, facts still remain, which no one can change. For that, you need someone who is better than him to break all his records. Time will tell.

*passing teh o ais to all heated forummers here* Cheers, bro.

the first black F1 driver if he can make it next season.

He's british.....
You guys never heard of him?

Kovalainen already signed for Renault. And no disrespect to you raikkonen, it's YOU who never heard of Lewis and his skills. if a racer is truly born not made, it's him.

well, it's not like we're going to lost the 3rd place in the constructors, so I think lewis might make a late debut in Brazil

R�ikk�nen Robertson Racing (otherwise known as Double R) is a motor-racing team, which races in Formula Three. The team was formed in November 2004 by then McLaren Formula One driver Kimi R�ikk�nen, and his race manager Steve Robertson, a former driver in F3 himself. It is based in Woking (the town where McLaren build their cars), and they are managed by Anthony "Boyo" Hieatt.

Bruno Senna Lalli (born October 15, 1983 in Sao Paulo) is a Brazilian racecar driver and the nephew of three-time Formula One world champion Ayrton Senna.

When leaving McLaren, Ayrton Senna said: "If you think I'm good, just wait until you see my nephew Bruno."
Ayrton had raced go-karts against Bruno on the family farm, and it was clear that Ayrton regarded his nephew's potential very highly.
Ayrton's tragic death brought Bruno's fledgling racing career to an abrupt halt.
But in Imola in 2004, around the 10th anniversary of his uncle's death, Bruno was given his uncle's 1986 Lotus 98T as a gift from an Italian friend.
Bruno drove the car at the 2004 Formula One Brazilian GP in Sao Paulo, at Interlagos, where Ayrton had twice won.

He is running with his uncle's yellow and green helmet and the Ayrton Senna Foundation web page.

Should be. I think the Hondas are light fuelled.
