Michael Schumacher needs little introduction. He is often thought of as the best driver, of any series, in the world due to his ability to make up for lesser machinery with a quickness paralleled by few. Coupled with his amazing quickness is a great desire to win, enabling him to keep his cool during the dicey situations where, more often than not, he comes out on top. This desire has also forced him to make decisions on the race track that have gotten him in trouble, such as his two-race suspension in 1994 and infamous 'blocking' attempt on Jacques Villeneuve in 1997. Despite these instances, Michael
went on to win three
more championships
in fine style, and
in the process
rewriting the F1
record books.
He has the most
wins, points,
fastest laps, and
podiums of all time,
and is only
comparable to Juan
Manuel Fangio and
Ayrton Senna in
effect of a driver
on the sport.
Surely, the most
talented racing
driver in the world
has a championship
or two left in him
before he walks away
from the sport as
its most decorated
driver.
