Its getting very boring now, I was a big fan of it, but now, it just a parade.

All the time Schumacher needs the points and Rubens is next to him, Rubens will not win a GP.

I am suprised at the experts that had him earmarked for a win in America, it was not going to happen unless Schumacher broke down or crashed.

I do not like Schumacher, he is without doubt a superb driver, but he and Ferraris team orders are slowly killing the sport.

When Irvine was at Ferrari he was quoted as saying he will not win a GP all the time MS has a chance, Jonnie Herbert has also said similar things.

Good crashes yesterday though!

Good crashes yesterday though!

This is the only interesting about F1 nowadays!!!

It used to be good back in the days of Mansell and Schumacher overtaking and cutting each other up and arguing about it afterwards.

Obviously Schumacher is a brilliant driver, but with the best car as well, there is no way anyone else can compete.

Completely agree.

I only watch the start most of the time and only carry on if Schumacher hasn't got the lead.

However this season that only lasts until the first pit stops anyway.

It's not Ferrari's fault, or Schumachers but it isn't that entertaining, especially as they don't really let Barrichello race him either.

If it is not Ferraris fault, who is it that wont let Rubens race Schumacher?

Ferrari bring in the team orders, previous 'team' drivers to Schumacher have commented how the information tends to flow one way only and they would not win a GP all the time Schumacher had a chance. I've also noticed that Barrichellos pit stops seem to take a second longer than Schumacher, despite the fact they generally run the same strategy and finally, yesterday, Rubens was up Schumachers exhaust then tailed off dramatically, he could have had him but didn't.

In the same circumstances, once Schumacher has the title sewn up, Rubens will be allowed to win.

Sorry I didn't word that very well.

I meant that it isn't Ferrari's or Schumacher's fault that they are so superior. If the other teams were on par it would be much better and people would appreciate Schumacher's ability more, as he would probably still win.

I do agree that they further demean the competition by not letting their drivers race.

I believe that it is all cyclical. Ferraris domination will be cut back, it has to for the sake of the sport.

Maclaren have their time, Williams have had theirs, perhaps BAR are team to knock Ferrari of their perch for a season or two.

As I have already said, I don't like Schumacher, but he is a fantastic driver.

Unfortunatly the driver is getting bigger than the sport.

i liked the proposed rule a while back that never made it....

the one where the drivers rotate in the cars, this would make it much more interesting and considering ferrari as the team seem to be absolutely sheeet hot at every miticulous detail it would be interesting to see what micky would do in a minardi and what baumgartner would do in the scarlett car.

'martin schumachers on the back row today,how do yo think he will do'

.......martin says 'james, the minardi is looking but i think maureen of driving school is going to be just too strong the ferrari'

Well Schumacher has the title and what happens at the next GP?

 

[Phoenixkeeper]

So can we also assume that Schumacer will win the next two grand prix, and that Barrichello will then be allowed to win the Brazilian Grand Prix?

 

[itchybowwow]

I don't think any help from Michael will help Rubens to win his home Grand Prix. The occasion always seems to big for him, and he usually makes a mistake.

Schumacher will help Rubens secure second place in the championship, while at the same time developing the car for next season.

In the meantime, Maclaren, Williams etc etc, will continue the development of their cars for this season

Jaguar have announced today that they are pulling out from F1 at the end of the season
