Ralf Schumacher
Ok, before launching a full scale attack on Ralf and his career, is there anything good we can say about the driver? and would he have made it into F1 without his elder brother's success?

Ralfs an odd one, never thought much of him, But at some races has been truely brilliant. I may be wrong but I'm pretty sure all the races he won he won from Pole, streaked away from everybody at the start and was generally unstopable. Thats once in a blue moon though.
Toyota made a weird choice, if I could name the last 2 drivers I'd want on my team I'd name Trulli and Ralf. Dream Team is a phrase bandied about a lot, maybe a new one should be invented for Ralf and Trulli, Has Been Team??.

Those crashes at Indy, maybe Ralf has a mental block about going fast or something like that, some psychology problems.darwin_dali wrote:I've never warmed up to him. He's definitely overpaid and his motivation level is rather questionable at times. To his defense he went through some horrific accidents, which may have taken the wind out of his sails...

Yeah, he missed a fair few races following that one. I wonder if this will be his last year in F1, what with all the young talent banging on the door.

Most of the teams are jumping on the save-money bandwagon, but Toyota seems to have (almost) unlimited resources for F1, so even being overpaid, RS might still have a future at Toyota, especially if he can pull some good/excellent results this year...

toyota i seriously needs to change JT or RS as they have stagnated a little. Look at bmw kubica has brouht the team and NH a new lease of life!! RS is i agree overpaid a lot!! so u cannot see RS moving to another team so he is happy? thinking "one day" he will win races with toyota and chanmpionship
oh well i guess he can live in hope and count his money after every race
