The first 4 years of Michael's F1 career were spent in England and his nickname 'Schuey' came from that period. You are in no position to state whether a nickname is correct or not and if it is used widely enough, its correct. In alot of circumstances a person doesn't have any say in what they are referred to as in any case.. ;)Quote:

Don't get so worked up. We all know who he is no matter what the spelling.

Why? This is an English language forum. Besides I call him SchM anyway. Basically, as long as it is not abusive, I see no reason why anyone cannot call him what they like. It is their prerogative.Quote:
