Me to. He gets slagged off loads. but its that single mindedness and maybe a little bit of ' fcuk you jack ' thats made him the most sucessful F1 driver ever. And lets be honest, Rossi has done exactly the same thing to the likes of Gibernau and he's still a god, as did Senna to Prost. And what nobody realises is Schuey has given ridiculous amounts of money to various charities , and it comes to lots of millions, yet with no publicity.

Personally I hope he stays.

And he makes a very successful motorcycle helmet. Well I'm sure he don't make them but he's behind the brand and ideas.

Ah, the Schuey is on the other foot.

And he rides bikes, can't be all bad!

Yes, and very well. I read an article saying that he had tested a moto gp bike ( Ducati I believe ) and got it within 5 seconds of Dani Pedrosa's pole time ( dont remember what circuit ).

He did some German Superbike racing after he retired, with various degrees of success. I remember some images of him sliding along on his butt, but to give him his due he had a go.
