    They would be proud, three of the 6 drivers that have gained my fullest respect.
    It surprises me how content they are, Michael is driving a ****-box, Vettel under pressure to secure his third title, and Glock driving a car that needs to start looking at the mid-field teams.
    It is good to see them smile.

    Multi millionaires who race the fastest cars (or something resembling a fast car in Glock's case) on earth for a living. I'm not at all surprised to see how content they are.

    Honestly I am fine!

    What I have learnt over the season is how to deal with tough seasons in life and in the sport I love to watch, Michael has had some great moments in his comeback, I am thrilled I got to see him whipping the car around a track at his age.

    The unexpected pole in Monaco, the podium in Valencia, the Qualifying in wet conditions.. and the early Qualifying sessions that went really well in this season.

    2011- had some great overtakes and races, such as Canada. 2010- was tough, he was destroyed by Rosberg but hey, it was still a dream come true to see him race again.

    I am enjoying him racing to the end of this season, whatever happens. He will always be a record breaker, a great ambassador, and a absolute legend.

    ---

    Also I forgot to mention they are multi-billionaires, so they would be content.

    As well as this, Hamilton fans If do not already know how to deal with tough F1 season's. Please prepare in advance for 2013.

    We won't be commenting on how proud we are of a drivers determination to grind around in 20th place and try and make it look good......... If he is in 20th then he is having a **** race. End of.

    This is 'pre-judging'*. I ask you to read my post again and see the words it contains and what it was in response to: i.e. an accusation by a Moderator to a member of this forum that he "invented" the problem of Schumacher ignoring Blue Flags.

    I would defend you too if I felt you were being unfairly dealt with (as I have in the past), especially by a Moderator; but it has nothing to do with our preferences or differences of opinion.

    Your labelling of others (including me in this case) as part of a group, whether true or otherwise, is irrelevant. It is also potentially offensive and certainly not constructive to the thread. Indeed, it was this sort of 'personalisation' which I felt warranted my original response!


    *It is no coincidence that pre-judging is the basis of the word 'prejudice'; and that the tendency to label individuals is often done in order to obscure the actual specifics of what is being discussed. My part in this was to question what appeared to be a rather dismissive response to a forum member who in this case just happens to be called Miggins.

    Fair enough, I am not looking for an argument Arrow. I was just proud that he didn't pack up his car after the puncture, even though points were not on the card, it could have been the easiest thing to do.
    He gave the fans on the TV, and the Indian grandstands something to watch.
    It is only my opinion, don't bite my head off.

    I am off for a shower.

    I've dealt with tough seasons for 30 years... I think I'll cope. :)

    why? no one insults him first, it's always the other way around. Whenever anyone says a single detrimental thing about his **** icon he starts insulting them. He's worse than LewisWDC.

    It's clearly obvious the rock has an agenda! The body language of the rock stinks of jealousy and hatred towards the paper as he can never beat him on equal ground FACT! The hands give it away too much, so much hatred!

    Is it cause he is black? That's what Ali-G says...

    I like all drivers, unlike you. Reserving special hatred towards them gets boring.

    your continued ****fest over Schumacher is the most boringly repetitive part of this forum, no doubt it'll get even worse when he's no longer racing and showing what an overhyped twat he is.

    I understand that you don't like Schumacher Miggs and I can also appreciate your prob with Eternal being a bit too zealous in his support for him. I can't agree with the over-hyped part though and I know many will disagree with me. He brought Benetton 2 titles seeming out of nowhere, yes I understand that there were questions over the cars legality, but he didn't engineer that. He then walked away from that team that then dropped in to their usual finishing positions and moved to Ferrari that were languishing at best and helped to transform them back in to the F1 force that they are and were. I laughed my butt off when he made that move thinking we'd never see anything of the guy again... but how wrong I was.

    Not only that... He was the only one to take the fight to the Hakkinen/Coulthard borefest... Probably one of the most miserable driver pairings in F1 history. During that he gained my support (even though I was a Hill fan) because between those two McLaren drivers, I had never seen a more miserable pair of podium finishers... and it was nice to see Schumacher up there who actually smiled and showed passion for the sport.

    I get that people don't like him... and I can in some ways understand that, but I don't think he was over-hyped in the slightest. No team would invest so much in a driver that lacked talent. I'm personally glad that I got to see him race up close in person and will hold that as dear as I do with the likes of Senna and Mansell.

    I'll be sad to see him leave.

    Edit: Maybe I should have included Irivne in taking the fight to Mclaren... But after the broken leg He didn't really have the chance that year,
