f1atic should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
Why M$?

I just read an article that pointed out the obvious answer to this question.

Michael won 13 races this past season. That total is more than Alonso, Kimi, Ralf and Juan have won in their combined careers.

. . . and people want to know why he is THE driver to have.

Well, McLaren could have used him in `04. Maybe those engines might have held together ay?

See the Rush fan's (?) post above. Well, McLaren could have used him (Ralf this time) in `04. Maybe those engines might have held together.

ooo, that reminds me, isn't Ralf good at saving engines?

Well obviously the best way to save an engine is to bin the car on lap 1...

He's definitely in(to) Dire straits Adam and Ralf is really good at saving engines unless of course he bins it backwards,fortunately the engine on his roadcar is at the front.

Originaly I brought up that DC scored the total of points as Ralf, even though he missed 6 races. I meant that DC has performed poor. (my opinion)

What's the point of this post?

This is just to bash certain drivers by fans of certain driver.

It points out how much better Michael is when compared to the younger drivers and Ralf & Juan.

Pointing out a fact, not bashing DC at all.
I could go further and bash him, but you knowI'm not like that.
Anyway I'm entitled to if I could be bothered but I would only be splashed with a wipe, when I'm only offering my opionin.

As far as I know, luke, Adam tends not to allow "bashing" on this forum.

But opinions are excellent things, and it's good to read many different ones.

Just add Jacques to that list of drivers and Schumacher won't have more wins than Kimi, FA, Juan, Ralf and Jacques...

Or DC, who with 13 wins is the second-highest winner among the current field.

13 wins with one of the best cars for at least 6 seasons, and even THE best car for 3 seasons....
Impressive tally indeed...
