Re: Is Michael Schumacher the best?

I agree, he's the best F1 driver currently, and it has a bit to
do with his cars.

Mansell owned Schuie for a while, and then came to Indy
and showed he could do it there as well.

But, I'd have to agree that who knows what Senna could have
become, considering where he was when it all ended. And guys
like Mario, Foyt, Clark, Fangio, etc. all showed they could be at the
top in almost any vehicle, and win in races of just about any
format.

For the past few years, I have been disappointed that Villeneuve
has been stuck in unreliable machinery. The year he and Schuie
went head to head was phenomenal. I hope his lot improves
before he calls it quits. Oh, he did pretty well in Indy too!
His dad was a pretty good driver to IIRC [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
