What odds would you have given me for button in the February of his WDC year? Probably nothing better than 100/1.......


I made a tidy sum on 50/1 (£500) that year. :thumbup: Should have bet on Brawn in the WCC too, d'oh...

Actually much as I hate Schumacher's modus operandi, and much as i prefer Rosberg. I think Michael might do better with this years car, Im not saying better than Rosberg, but very competitive with him. the tyres and the 'no diffuser' rule will both suit his style. Be interesting to watch that. But up against Lewis and Alonso..I dont think so.

So the moral of the story is kids.....

Never write anyone off OR gambling is fun when you win....

For anyone that says Schumacher, I can't understand the dismissal of a team mate that's outscored him twice. If Merc has a car good enough to win, it won't be Schumacher doing the winning.


Takes a bold person to write Schumacher off like that...


Bold, no. Foolish, yes.

Stick him in a top end car that suits his style and I'm sure he'd run rings round everyone again. The old codger has still got it but the car has been a letdown for the last 2 seasons.

Is that how Vettel won his second? I'm sure there's a good list of drivers that could be WDC if they had last year's RB, hell Rubens Barichello nearly won a WDC in 09.

That's how all champions have won or gotten their championships the past few seasons! Doesn't detract from the achievement of finishing 1st though.

No, not really, not in 08, not in 10.

Senna wouldn't have ever needed that, not even to beat his own team mate. :wink: Schumacher should concentrate on beating Rosberg first then look at the rest after.
