Your posts are becoming more and more amusing (to say the least); keep making stuff up if it makes you feel any better.

I'm sure Rosberg has enjoyed being outperformed by someone who finds it "hard to stay focus[ed] [for] 2 hours", this season.
i promise you that's the last time when i quote.

With all respect for Micheal (btw: i'm fan Schumi) and for all users on this forum (Schumcher fans or not) but how can you say Schumi outperformed Nico? even today Nico starts P10 and finish P5 .... today he beat Michael on track , Schumi can't keep pace with Nico and after 4-5 laps he was over 2 sec behind.
Nico win this year and was on podium (now you gonna tell me about car failures and partil you're right but let's talk about Barcelona when he crashed with Senna and missed opportunity to win at Monaco. We can also talk about Monza where Nico starts P7 and at end of the race almost beat Micheal. In last 2 years Nico finished ahead of him and same will do this year.
You'll probably tell me about qualifying but i said that! He's one of the best 1 lap driver. Please stop be a fanboy.
Will be good for everyone if Micheal leave but especially for him... don't want to watch another year how he continue to fail
Maybe team isn't good but Mercedes is the only option for him. We are naive if think he can go to Sauber McLaren or Ferrari. All this teams need a young talented drivers like Perez Di Resta or Hulk.
No, your are not a Schumi fan, whats more, reading your post I can consider you an "anti" more than a fan.

Today Nico has been faster than Michael, so what? we dont excpect Michael to beat Nico in every track, but the true fact, yes the FACT, is that Michael has been faster than Nico in the majority of the races. The true fact is that MIchael has suffered much more reliability problems than Nico when the car was competitive, and another true fact is that these reliability problems ruined the chances of Michael of getting at least two podiums.

Congratulations to Nico ,he has done a great race, nothing spectacular but fast and consistent(as he usually is), is what I expect from a driver who theoretically is in the peak of his abilities.

Now a lot of rubbish related to Michael will be posted in the following days, the best think that Michael can do is to show his speed in Japan as he did in Monaco, and close some big mouths.

people can blame msc all they want he had brake issues all weekend , he even mentioned that in his interview after qualifying the odds are it was an issue with the car.

but its mercedes so they wont mention it as they wouldnt want to harm there brand

5 grid dorp at most imo, 10 based on him having a similar accident he was already punished for is BS.

you shouldnt be punished twice for an offence......

grosjean got the ban because he got away with it so many times schumacher was punished already and different stewards every weekend dont seem to remember this....

imo they shouldnt even be looking at previous weekends they are the stewards for only this weekend why should incidents from a past weekend with different stewards be taken into acount?

So if MSC qualified in the top 10 and set a time, will he be able to choose tyres? Or will he have to start on the set he qualified on? The always start on the option, i want to see a split strategy for once.
Irvine:"If you don't have a good car you can't win it, unless you are Michael or Senna. Lots of guys won in Adrian Newey's cars, big deal. Adrian is the real genius out there, there is Senna, there is Michael and there is Newey.They were the three great talents."

Nice point there. I rate Schumacher brand much higher than Mercedes in F1.

Exactly my point. Mercedes have achieved nothing in living memory, whereas Schumacher rewrote the book.
It also explains why the first reaction after the event was "it was the cars fault".
Mercedes can shoulder the blame if indeed they where at fault. But from what I have seen, this was driver error.
I'll repeat, that if there was a technical problem, the FIA would know about it given the info they have at their disposal.

Meh, it happens, after a bad race they feel courageus to say any stupid thing they want to say, I only can smile when I think where they were after Monaco quali or Valencias podium.

Its like Lauda, now he can say that Michael should retire,then if he has a great race in Suzuka he will say that Schumi is as fast as always. Incoherence at its best!!

But he didn't really blame it on that though did he? He was right in his assertion the car wouldn't decelerate (as quick as it would've done), and the cause was pretty much cold brakes.

Doesn't mean anything, this always happens if/when he has a bad race. People need to wake-up and look at the real reality of this season. He can do no wrong, the team royally screwed it up for him when the car was competitive.

Mercedes actually need a car (and a team) that can challenge for a win/podium before you even start to consider whether a driver is good or not.

I bet if Schumacher was leading the championship, he would be 100000% more focussed and not let any tiny mistake happen.

After all, where he is at now is not why he returned to F1.
