    Let's hear it for Schumi & Ferrari.

    But who's going to get the 2nd place? DC? Barichello? Schumaker Jnr?

    "Schumi" is a kraut with a big chin and no sense of humour. He deserves a smack in the face

    You would need to hit him in the face with something very big otherwise his chin would just destroy it!!!

    £18K worth of car... .but unfortunately not (in my opinion) a nice car.. a friend of mines dad had one and he sold it within a week of having it.. he said it drove like a brick!

    Katie - Micheal Schumacher is a formula 1 driver and Has just won the world championship. Formula 1 is on par with your indy car, but withouth the boring oval tracks

    The best ever formula 1 driver is the argentine pilot Juan Manuel Fangio: 5 times world champion in 9 years, 4 times in a row. And with 4 different brand cars: Mercedes, Ferrari, Masserati and Alfa.
    He will never be beaten.

    Well it is a matter of opinion and relative, this person you speak of could have been up against a bunch of monkeys, hence winning a 100 championships wouldn't be much of an achievment. Having said that, your probably right.

    He won racing against the best pilots of his time: Sterling Moss, Nino Farina, Robert Unser, Alberto Ascari. Monkeys? No, hey were no monkeys at all.

    His fellow competitors named him "El maestro" (The Master). He was very fair, helping young drivers, he even let Sterling Moss win a career in England by letting him pass first in the last lap. That was the first time an English pilot won in his own land. And by 0,2 seconds!

    All the contrary to Michael, who won't hesitate crashing a competitor if this can help him win (Japan, Germany...)

    Look at this comparison:

    Name: Fangio - Shummy
    Races: 51 - 157
    Wins: 24 - 51
    Podiums: 35 - 94
    Points: 293 - 772
    Championships: 5 - 4

    Now tell me about efficiency.

    those are all pretty cool. I mean drag racers do 0-100mph in like half a second, the only bad one in the bunch is Indy. Chuffin Ovals are about as interesting as waiting for a bus.
