Schumacher wins F1 Championship...

[Actaeon]

Didn't see any F1 thread.... so...

For those who missed it...

Schummie wins! Riakkonen (sp) had a good race, but couldn't beat Barrichiclo (sp).

Raikkonen, Barichello 😛

Great result, 6 titles. I don't see how people can say he's just lucky, lucky doesn't get you 6 titles.

A tarnished win because of the tyre fiasco when Ferrari was losing races.

I know. Too bad eh? Schumacher won so people say the FIA favors Ferrari. If JPM or Kimi won... people would then say Michelin was cheating. Blah. FIA sucks balls.

Oh well... I'm a Ferrari fan first. #27. 🙂

You can't win 6 world championships without a hell of a lot of skill. Would probably have been 7 had he not broken his leg a few years back.

Blah..what else is new. Id like to see Montoya and Ralf Schumacher win a championship soon (BMW/WilliamsF1 team). Hopefully next season Team Williams/BMW can unseat ferrari.

I'd like to see newcomer Toyota win. 🙂

There was a rule about tyre width. It was explicitly clear in its wording, Ferrari asked for it to be clarified. It was clarified, it meant Michelin had to change their tyres because they did not comply with the clarified rules. There were no penalisations for cars with Michelins.
The FIA cleared up what the rule meant, Michelin altered their tyres to ensure they were correct and legal.

He had a terrible race, but Barrichello realli kicked the cr@p out of the others..... Only Montoya in the first laps was competition...
