check this thread I started http://www.ferrarichat.com/forum/sho...d.php?t=259757

wouldn't it be great to get Vettel in 2011! MS would really be happy with that!

He could have said nothing. I don't remember him endorsing Kimi in quite as enthusiastic a manner.

MS is an absolute fierce competitor. I wouldn't expect him to openly support the man who replaced him.

IMO MS helped Massa out and he responded well and improved, some how I just can't see that happening with FA.
pricesly why kimi has struggled at ferrari MS and the rest of the gang have really been in massa's corner the whole time. This is the same for why Alonso struggled at Mclaren. yes Hamilton is among the best driver's out there, but the bottom line is Fernando wasn't very welcome there once they knew what Lewis was capable of.

Remember Schumacher is an advisor now so all he has to do is say the right things to collect his cheque.

Not so. I no longer waste my time watching fixed races and seasons. Do you really think that these last 2 seasons and this one included have come down to the last race by chance? If you do then you should be buying shares in Nortel. After the first 6 races I said that Button has a complete lock on the season and should rap it up early. I then said that it will be interesting to see how the "show" goes from here to bring it home to the last couple of races. And whaaala, Button wins no more and Lewis' car goes from last on the grid to first. Do you guys not see this or are you all that fanaticle about F1 that it causes you to throw commen sense out the window?

no no no...i remember, y'all said you would no longer support Ferrari if FA is on board! by being here, complaining, y'all still care what they do..support them. as a non supporter why should y'all care either way? and yes, we are idiots for being suckers to the race fixin! how on earth did you figure that out? you are upset because it's entertainment instead of 'sport'? you must've really had your head in the sand all these years. shoot, i watch and continue to watch because i love the cars, and i love love love the Jerry Springer/WWE aspect of it! I love the cheatin' the race fixin' the whining, the scandals, the porno Maxxx, but i really want to see physical fighting, at least some pitlane shovin... i am the hillbilly F1 fan, in it for the garbage!!! yeah baby!

You betcha I would. I am as big an MS fan as the next guy. But he is in a different role now. My point was he will toe the party line which is what he is paid to do these days.
