I sure hope Schumi doesn't retire. Forza Ferrari!

Default If he retires, he will not drive for any other team. He will either drive next year alongside Kimi

or else he will hang it up at the end of this year. I really don't expect him to retire unless he wins the title again.

Default WRRRRRRRRRRRRRREEEEEEEEEEEEEETCCCCCH! Darn. A three year contract>

no less. I have been a McLaren fan(atic) since Bruce was around. How could Dennis let this happen? I'm sure it relates somehow to the reliability issues the Merc engines have had. By rights, Kimi should be a two time champ now. Oh well.
