Absolutely!! SchM would be 3 wins up on these no hopers. I mean who would even dream that Fernando or Massa or Kimi could beat SchM? Ridigilis!! :rolleyes:Quote:

Get over it, he is gone and all you can hope for is that he comes back some day as is being now flaunted on some news sights.
If you are a true fan of racing, enjoy this moment - it is a treat and yes both our fave drivers are not involved but we are witnessing a unique and wondeful scenario.
enjoy!
:s mokin:
I both like and dislike the hype in Lewis Hamilton's instance.
I like the fact that F1 is being concentrated on again in the papers, rather than ignored unless Button wins (so, just the once).
However, I dislike the way they make him out as potentially the greatest driver ever, after just three races.
Lewis is clearly brilliant, but lets not get carried away. Three races, three podiums is fantastic - however not many rookies have had such a good car for their debut season. Look at the current grid:
Alonso - started at Minardi
Raikkonen - started at Sauber
Massa - started at Sauber
Heidfeld - started at Prost
Fisi - started at Minardi
Trulli - started at Minardi
Ralf - started at Jordan
etc etc!
:up: I agree, this is a moment to be savoured. We have 2 evenly-matched teams and 4 evenly-matched drivers battling for both championships. IF this continues this promises to be the most exciting season for years.Quote:

There's a world of difference between remarks like that and simply saying "He will be the greatest driver of all time".
Anyway the sooner the next grand prix the better and we can concentrate on the racing instead of who said what and what they meant by it. Whose great idea was it to have a 4 week gap between races anyway? :mad:
First three races: (grid), finish
A. Prost: (12) 6, (13) 5, (19) retired
A. Senna: (16) retired, (13) 6, (19) 6
M. Schumacher: (7) retired, (7) 5, (10) 6
On the other hand, there is this driver who won his first race ever in a Ferrari, and I don't remember his name.
Too early to say anything other than the guy is a good prospect.
shinji nakano?:P
That's certainly true. Everything being said about Hamilton has to be balanced against the number potential 'greats' we've seen come and go over the years. But there's just a feeling about this guy that he's the genuine article. The same was thought of the likes of Senna and Schumacher - there was a sense of inevitability that they would achieve great things in the sport before they even reached F1.Quote:
