i think that most of us here are the ARMCHAIR MEDIA FED "FANS" that you just described. everyone has his/her own opinion on the matter.

the guy's godam talented, actually its the package. Engine reliability, tires, aero, electronics....

Points to ponder:
Montoya has the best engine
Renault has the best electronics
Barichello has virtually the same car but he cant beat Shcumi, i think 3 of 15 times only(depending on race strategy pa)
Michelin has the advantage in almost every circuit(except syempre if it rained)
Ron Dennis being a superb strategist
Toyota having the biggest budget
Honda having one of the lightest/great aero cars
Sauber has the same Ferrari engine(they're using one season old engines)
Alonso, Webber is also talented

but guess who, Ferrari and Schumacher has the complete package. They have excelent if not the best of everything

Actually i'm a Mika fan, nakipagsuntukan pa nga ako dahil jan eh. It is claimed as one of the best competition in sports.
I really love to see Mika on his f1 helmet again

Schumacher has two seasons left at the most.
He has no chance of keeping his hero tag in either.

Ross Brawn (surely a better strategist that Ron Dennis) is already moaning about new rules.
Ferrari are reported to be signing Liuzzi as test driver next year.
When Liuzzi won his kart title he beat Shumacher, in Kerpen of all places! Talk about being shown up on home turf.

So, if Ferrari sign a pretty brilliant Italian, it's bye bye Rubens (pity) then how long will it take before the "adoring tifosi" and the red army to switch from a has been german to an Italian?
Does not take a lot to work that out.

A cheaper more talented Italian in a Ferrari?? Bye bye Shuntmacher, long may you be forgotten.

Roll on 2006, Kimi against Liuzzi, Button providing the odd 3 way, driver skills not electronics, this will be F1 as it should be.
And when someone has the sense to sign Davidson i will be singing Land of Hope and Glory again, think i will put a PA in my car....
