I think the announcers at Speed Channel said it best. Right now we don't think its much because we live at the time of the Schumi but 10 years from now we are gonna be astonished at what he was able to accomplish...We have witnessed the best driver of all time (at the moment)

well, maybe not boring, depends if you love or hate schumi, but you have to give him credit, he sure set a lot of records, look at some other drivers, what they have achieved, ex: trulli just won his first gp; compared to some drivers, and they all are great drivers, what schumi has done is monumental, perhaps some of his records will never be beaten, whether he is the best ever is debatable and many of us will continue to argue for and against, but his is without a doubt the most accomplished f1 driver, ever ...

Don't misunderstand me.. Actually, I've always been on Schumis side... I think it's fun that he sets all those records, but I don't look at the races anymore..
I miss the time when he and Hakkinen, he and Fisichella and he and (what's his name?) was having a war over the trophy... That was Formula 1 on its best...

I think he might be able to break Senna's pole record this season....(provided if Williams and BAR cannot improve faster than Ferrari)

Some people may find it boring from an entertainment point of view, but guys, guys we are living in the Schumi era and we should be very thankful. He will retire soon and we will be telling our children of times when this great man was dominating the sport and we saw it all with our own eyes.

The man is great and thats it. He trully loves what he is doing and that is what I like the most about him. The man races for pure pleasure, not money, not status(it is too cool not to see this guy in every magazine, he is just a normal guy who likes to spend his sunday behind a wheel of a race car).
