Default Schumacher is retiring - 09-10-2006, 06:32 PM

After winning the race today Schumacher stated that he will retire at the end of this season which is only 2 more races.

Itll be sad not seeing his name in the standings.

It jsut struck me when I was watching the press conference after the race. Hes only 37. But he feels its his time to leave.

He'll probably continue motor racing in some shape or form - So many people that retire young have "comebacks."

Most dominate person in his sport...ever. He will be missed, but the competition will be wide open now. I don't see anyone that will "dominate" quite like Schumey did. I think the McLaren/Ferrari rivalry will get heated once again come next year with Raikkonen at Ferrari, and Alonso at McLaren. Will make for some good racing.

Yea it will be amazing, his teammates wont have to lay back and let him win races or let him pass them so he can gain a couple spots.

F1 = Joke
