    How is Flavio Briatore's style?

    http://www.foxsports.com.au/story/0,8659,20389940-23770,00.html

    Michael Schumacher announces his retirement and Flavio reckons it is all a con and the F1 championship is rigged because they are giving Michael the championship to him for his final season. F1 probably sabotaged Alonso's engine I suppose.

    I suppose they wanted to give it to Alonso last year as well?

    Talk about sour grapes. I really hope Michael can pull back the last two points and win the Drivers with Ferrari also taking the Constructors.

    Sad news, the sport loses a great....but hes provided the fans with so much quality entertainment over the years ill surely be looking back on it with a smile

    Well done to him, and hope he gets the most of his newfound time with family.....although somehow I think he will still play a role in F1 for years to come ;)

    I'm glad SHUEY's retiring - my numberplate will now be a collectors item.

    Unlike last year, where Alonso only won due to change in rules that made the Ferrari uncompetative. :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

    He won for Benetton when Ferrari was coming last and Williams was dominating. He made Ferrari great again.

    Lets all go buy a Reno Espace :p

    Im looking at booking a trip to either Japan or Brazil, I need to see MS and change his mind!!!

    edit: spelling shocking!!

    the back wheel off Michael's Benetton from his altercation with Damon Hill is in a friends warehouse here in Adelaide. sounds like the good old days with Prost and Senna.

    actually....MS was a very naughty little boy for doing that...but hill was an idiot for trying to overtake him there. MS obviously was out. Had Hill waited a few seconds he could have overtaken him on a straight.

    both were dumb that day. i bet hill hates himself for doing that.
