  • Let's hope for a Schumacher-Ferrari pairing in 2013

    Updated: 2012-09-28 14:07:45
    The stunning news Friday morning, confirming that the rumours and speculation of recent months about Lewis Hamilton and Mercedes were true, now leaves unanswered a most important question: What happens to Michael Schumacher? The opportunity was there for the seven-time world champion to say - in concert with the announcement that Hamilton would leave McLaren-Mercedes at the end of 2012 to drive for the Silver Arrows team from 2013 on - that he would retire for good at the end of the season. It was an opportunity for him to bow out with dignity and class. But no, his statement...

They don't think I like him. But the truth is,...

    Updated: 2012-09-25 03:31:14
    Yesterday, I suggested it was time that Michael Schumacher retire for good from Formula One racing because I don’t think his mental ability to process information quickly and to react physically is as razor sharp as it once was. In other words, like the aging heavyweight who’s been on the receiving end of a left hook or right cross from a much-younger opponent and unable to do anything about it, it’s time for Schumacher to call it a day – I think. Seems I’m not alone. The picture above was posted on a Facebook page yesterday populated by fans of...

    Although Lewis Hamilton suffered terrible luck in Sunday’s Singapore Grand Prix and Sebastien Vettel went on to win, the question many people are asking in the aftermath is: Should seven-time world champion and Mercedes driver Michael Schumacher, 43 years old, retire for good after rear-ending another car during the race? It is not the first time this season that this has happened – a sign, perhaps, that the aging veteran is losing his touch. But first, the race. Hamilton looked set to win his second consecutive race and his fourth of the season after starting from pole. He was in...

Then I found it strange that the top article upon thee Interwoods was from Business News .
