Yes, he is a god. He would have straight wins over the entire season if not for fucking Montoya knocking into him during the yellow in Monaco. Don't get me wrong, I'm cheering for BAR Honda all the way, but I've just got to give respect where respect is due. Michael Schumacher is a friggin' prodigy.

I would like to see him in a car that was setup to run equally with is competition. It seems like the F1 wins go to the companys that spend the most money in sponsoring the series.

Bullshit. Looks at Williams or Mclaren. Both teams have dumped a ton of money into the sport, with McLaren seemingly coming out with a new chassis every few races, and neither have yet to best Ferarri. Further proof can be found simply looking at Barrichello. He's in the same basic car as Schumacher yet is hard pressed to put on the same type of performance. I think it's in poor taste to simply lump Schumacher's success on the car he's driving. Hell, just check out his history driving for Benetton-Renault/Benetton-Ford. The man simply brings a skill level to the field that others are hard-pressed to match.

I don't doubt Schumacher's talent, success w/e; but on the otherhand that you mentioned Rubens Barrichello, do you really think Ferrari let's him do whatever he wants in terms of being a sole rider as opposed to Schumacher's backup ? Maybe, lately but before he was purely backup; but ya no doubt Schumacher has talent, but Ferrari is dominating lately, no one else is worthwhile watching this year besides Schumacher...btw I'm pleasantly suprised people here actually watch F1

Schumacher is great, he also has a great team. Toyota is second behind Ferrari in spending and hasn't won a race yet. Michael showed his dominance over even his teammate yesterday...... by gapping Rubens (his teammate) by more than 19 seconds..... Damn I am not even a Ferrari fan.

With that said, Ferrari is reaping the benefits from the sweat that they put into the program in the mid 90's. They haven't had an engine failure in many races....... they were common in the mid 90's. I miss the Hakkinen Schumacher battles in the late 90's
