    Re: Michael Schumacher retires

    Schumacher is quitting because he doesn't want to race in the same team as Kimi Raikkonen?

    Re: Michael Schumacher retires

    Its an end of an era.

    Its probably wise to retire at the top, to protect his record and win per starts ratio. Next year with Braun and Todt schedule to leave too, Ferrari may lose their edge. Also Ferrari would not have been abe to hold on to Massi, with Kimi also in the team.

    Give him credit, he's opening doors for another talented driver (Massa) by doing so.

    Re: Michael Schumacher retires

    I feel so weird and sad, like when Senna died, or when P. Sampras and A. Agassi announced their retirement.

    Thank you for all Michael.

    I have this strange feeling inside...like...like a vacuum...an emptiness. Like when you lift a milk carton that you think is heavy, and its not...or the time when Liberace died...

    Re: Michael Schumacher retires

    One of the greatest race careers ever comes to an end
    I think there has been never a F1 driver who had so much positive influence on a race team like Schumi had on the Scuderia.
    Thanks Schumi for all these years with true excitement and passion
    And now go for the title # 8

    The end of an era...

    He'll be missed, even though he caused some of the most boring F1 seasons ever....
    (who won the past 7 races??? Oh that would be M Schumi, again)



    He was/is an awsome driver

    Re: Michael Schumacher retires

    I wonder what he plans to do after he retires. Will Ferrari hire him as a management person? or a test driver like walter?

    He is truely amazing as a driver.
