I'm gonna ask a favour from every one here....tomorrow Schuey is gonna say whether he is retiring or not...if not then woooohooooo lets party ....if he does retire plz no one take the piss
whether you like Schumacher or not you have to admit that he is one hell of a good driver....it reminds me of any time when I defended Rush...ppl would say they didnt like them and I would say fine but dont ever say they are shit muscians cuz they are in a league of their own......in the sports world Schuey is the same
For 13 years I have followed and willed Schuey on all the way....he was the man that got me into F1...albeit back then it was the car and not the driver that got me interested......I just loved his Camel Benetton car
Tomorrow if he retires it's an end to an era for me.....to make you understand better it's like getting told Rush have split up
I can take all you chuck at me and I'll chuck it back twice as fast ...but not this...so I'll say it again...on the risk of me sounding like a saddo (when it comes to F1 I have been called that many a time lol) please dont diss him....dont say it was time for him to go......just let me wallow in my sadness at losing a great sportman...yes I did say sportman lol
he was one of the best and will never be repeated..

thanx everyone....Ian has been slagging me (in a nice way I should add) he cant understand how I can get sad because some multi-millionaire is going to do absolute nothing but enjoy life with his kids and in his big fancy house lol
He has got a point in a way but I'm not sad for Schuey....I'm sad for me as I enjoyed watching him race so much
