    Since a gaint company from Italy just keeps winning against those tiny German, French, British, and Japanese auto companies, I think I have a solution. Make MS drive in reverse the whole way. Then he would only win a few each year. Also, make him run on one flat tire. Then it would be even.

    What an awesome idea... except:

    He came in 2nd in that race when he only had 5th gear, and 2nd every race can win a title (unless, of course, MS is at the front in his Ferrari every race!)
    I think if they handicapped his car with weights/gearbox limitations (odd gears only? *shrugs*) he could still win/compete.

    Bart,

    I was thinking about making MS drive a 550 ... with the air con on! ... still probably win :D ... and wouldn't that be an awesome win!

    You could also buy passenger rides for the race ... Wow!@!

    I still think we should let RB and MS sit on the pitwall in front of the monitors and let Todt and Brawn race every other race.

    Make him ride Smarty Jones. I bet he could at least get a point.

    I say he should have a hot coffee without a lid on it, give him something to distract him, maybe women should flash him as he cruises along.

    How about a game of "Simon Says" at 200mph? Make him wear an eyepatch to dull his depth perception. a Chinese fire drill after every lap?

    The only person that can stop Michael Schumacher from winning races is Michael Schumacher himself. He won't stop winning races untill the day he himself decides not to win the race. Other than that, Montoya has the other method tried and tested at Monaco.

    Button would have won, had he started from 3rd and not 13th. Kimi, was on Schumi's rear diffuser for a good while, until his wing decided to give up the ghost; the other teams have some work cut out for them, but they're beginning to reel in the schumi/ferrari combo. The last 6 races could offer some suprises from McLaren , Renault and, especially, BAR/Button. This takes nothing away from Schumi, or Ferrari, but the remainder of the season will be interesting.

    I know I know... lets have Ferrari design a 4 seater "family" F1 car like the Arrows 3 seater from back in the day and MS can take his wife and two kids with him during the race. Maybe the added weight will help slow him down. :D

    Rear diffuser 3 seconds behind and slowing... after the first pit stop no less. It is very easy to say this would have happened, he would have won, but until it happens it is all the same - talk.

    Kimi posted quickest lap of the race on lap 10, and pitted on lap 11. MS posted his quickest lap on lap 5, and pitted on lap 10. They both have equal speed, and kimi lost his wing on lap 13.

    NO, I suggest people should stop whinning and complaing about how to stop Michael Schumacher. He is the greatest racing driver to ever drive an F1 car. People should enjoy watching a great driver, make history with the world greatest F1 team instead of complaining.

    But you know cloning Michael for after he retires, so we can have one more Michael Schumacher for after 2008 for Scuderia Ferrari is not such a bad idea. :D
