Ralf not interested in Force India drive

Ralf Schumacher testing for Force IndiaRalf Schumacher has said he is not interested in driving for the Force India team after testing for them at Jerez on Thursday.

The German, the younger brother of seven-time champion Michael, was believed to be one of the drivers in contention for the remaining seat at Force India following his exit from Toyota.

Schumacher tested for the team for the first time in Jerez yesterday, but endured a troubled day and finished at the bottom of the times.

Giancarlo Fisichella and Franck Montagny also tested for Force India this week, but Schumacher said the test was not a shoot-out.

He admitted, however, that he is not interested in racing for the Silverstone-based squad.

"It was not shoot-out," Schumacher told autosport.com after testing for the team. "I don't think I will be driving for Force India. I want to achieve something and I don't think I can do that with Force India.

"I am going home now and we will see."

Schumacher was quoted as saying in Sport Bild newspaper: "It's possible that today was my last drive in a Formula One car."
Sorry, Ralf, but you need Force India more than they need you. Your skill, achievements and current form give you absolutely no right to criticise teams, dictate terms to teams and have such arrogance.

He's going home and I don't think we'll see him back on the grid next season.

My god Ralph's arrogance is beyond belief ! I say good riddance to him.

Ralf said he is Top 3 among F1 drivers... so apparently that's who he thinks he is.
But since I dont think the others team see it this way, then it's quite possibly byebye Ralf.

I think the team told him not to come back......" YOU ARE TOO SLOW"

Has he had a knock on the head? What an idiot, hopefully that's the end of Ralf in F1 and about time.

Must be hard trying to compete with a successful older brother. Should have stuck to competition gardening.

nothing to do with this then.... bahahaha

HAHA He's so bad that even the team occupying the last row on the grid has told him no thatnks, they need someone faster! He's being handed reality sandwiches on platters on a daily basis and he has yet to take a bite of one.

Oh well I guess on to NASCAR, no need to stop embarrassing himself today.
