Default How much longer do u think schumi can stay on top

My guess is this year and next year at the most.I am not saying this because he would not have the skill any more but how much luck can one guy have.

So you think Schumi's driving is luck? sorry i don't agree and i think your question kinda contradicts itself

As long as Ferrari are doing their homework Schumi will stay on top. The man is a born racer...you cant take that away from him.

I find it funny that he is the oldest driver in F1 but is also the most fit

i reckon he's got a few more years. hes a true racer. like the imola race he showed montoya he was not giving way to anyone. thats what we want to see. but obviously the whinging little bitch montoya wanted everything his way

schumi can stay on top as long as he wants. the guy is more motivated than the entire field combined, and he's got the team and resources behind him to win another hundred championships if he could live that long. he's got true skill, there's no doubt about that. and when it comes to skill i still don't think anybody in the field has what it takes to beat him. i am not, however, saying that he is invincible, though it may seem that he is. but as we've seen in imola qualifying, all it takes for an opponent to bump schumi down to #2 is a stellar performance in hopes that schumi fucks up.

car trouble isn't luck ferrari cars are so well engineered and designed they don't blow up often! They have a proven record of reliability. As for getting hit off the track i agree with you to a certain degree but also skilled drivers are better at avoiding 'racing incidents' schumi usually knows how far he can push it e.g. vs montoya in imola

His car control skills is absolutely amazing. Look that at qualifying stint he got himself at Imola. I bet other drivers would have lost it already, yet he qualified in 2nd.

Like everyone have said, Schumi can stay on top for a long long time (provided Ferrari has the resources to keep their game on hand)
