The testing ban has made it difficult for all, but perhaps more so for Schu, given that he has been out of the loop for so long.
I guess they'll give him another season, but if he doesn't deliver then, it would be foolish to keep him.

Another thing about his comeback is that he has helped a lot of people! The F1 business, younger driver been given the privilege to race with him, more media stuff to report about, etcs...
So what does he get in return? He gets criticism like this thread, Barrichello saying nasties about him, lots of media bashing, and so on.
I'll say this, Michael is a brave man to comeback the way he did and I believe what Ross Brawn said "the harder it is to win, the sweeter than victory will be". I believe he will win again! Go Michael!
may I remind you kindly of some Jean Alesi and GerhardBerger who came to Benetton both with wins under their belts TO the winners of the last two championships with Mr.Schu and they found the thing impossible to drive to the limit?ringo wrote:This talk of Button's car holds no weight.
I know Button said it, but i don't think he was serious. How can a car be made for him and he never spun a wheel in it.
We should know by now, tailor made cars are just excuses for when one driver does bad and the other does well.
Rosberg drives nothing like Button and he has 3 podiums from that W01.
I also recall how difficult it was for Fisi to adapt to his new Ferrari at the end of last season, so these are examples of where competent and proven Formula One drivers have had difficulty in adapting to a car design. This also supports the theory that a car can be designed for one specific driver, and not be as suitable for his teammate (example, McLaren).marcush. wrote:may I remind you kindly of some Jean Alesi and GerhardBerger who came to Benetton both with wins under their belts TO the winners of the last two championships with Mr.Schu and they found the thing impossible to drive to the limit?ringo wrote:This talk of Button's car holds no weight.

Both sudffered severe crashes trying to extract time of it and only after benettons techies finally realised they only had a car to suit Schumacher they started to make progress and moved forward ..It took Gerhard 3 years to win again..
also Button had years when he saw no land compared to ..who was that ,Ralf ,Fisi?
I believe cars are built not with the intention to suit a driver, but are built in a way that one driver may be more comfortable driving it.marcush. wrote:may I remind you kindly of some Jean Alesi and GerhardBerger who came to Benetton both with wins under their belts TO the winners of the last two championships with Mr.Schu and they found the thing impossible to drive to the limit?ringo wrote:This talk of Button's car holds no weight.
