Schuey to Mclaren ?

According to GrandPrix. com Schuey has had two meetings with the Boss of Mercedes Benz. Apparantly He is worried about the upcoming split and does not want to run in the Ferrari/bambino series, while Kimi, Alonso etc have all the fun playing in another paddock.
Of course he may just want a better deal from Ferrari for 2006.

Mate I was just amazed you missed it. If you look at all the posts on the forum you will find at least 2-50 posts by yourself. Well maybe not all but at least 98%
Anyone would think that have nothing better to do and am trying to escape the kids.
But that is what "therapy" is for, right?

I doubt Michael will ever leave Ferrari.N which driver will be dropped from Mclaren anyway
Julian,ur right,maybe he's trying to negotiate a better deal Ferrari or scaring the engineers to perform better if they want his services.

The article was careful to point out that could be the reason, but the author was a bit taken aback at TWO meetings in a short time

Actually JayVee,he's the best return on investment guy in terms of sponsorship atleast & also u cant deny he's still fast given the equipment.
Also,he has the biggest (like & dislike)fan base

Almost 99.9% of the people who watch F1 either love him or love to hate him!!!
For me,the most interesting thing this season is Michael Schumacher & Ferrari are finally beaten!!! People are finding this interesting,with a new champion in site,a new rivalry in F1 grooming.
Apart from a couple of exiciting races ,all the races are very much the same with leader disappearing into a distance & not challenged for victory.Whats making this exicitng is that we almost have a alternate winner every race or a sense of exicitment in reliabity especially when a Mclaren is leading.

Nice stats JV. but here are some others.
5, 3, 4, 1, 1, 3, 2, 2, 5, 1, 1, 1, 1, ?
Those are some pretty nice stats as well. Show me an F1 driver in the paddock that can match that.

OOOps. Should have asked JV to do the stats for me, she seems to be good at them. I can't even count that far.
Schumi and Willi Weber's tactics

What better way to get a pay rise than threaten to leave? Willi is apparently seeking a $6.1 million increase in Michael's salary.
