I agree with this. Schumacher has been in the much faster car over the past few years and shouldn't be regarded as the best driver ever.
Formula one has 2 types of people, drivers and racers. Micheal schumacher is a driver as he will not push and risk everything for the win if he is in trouble. We saw a perfect example of this in magny-cours, he made a 4th pit stop because he didnt want to risk racing Alonso.
Someone like Kimi raikkonen is a racer, he will push and push everything he has and could be regarded as the best driver in the sport. Micheal schumacher does not take risks, and is not entertaining.
Remember in Barcelona, at the beginning of the season they stuck valentino rossi in a ferrari and he beat micheal schumachers lap record on his first attempt!
If you put kimi raikkonen in a ferrari, he would most probably beat micheal. Sorry people but what F1 is witnissing at the moment is not driving genius but Techinical masterclass. Ross brawn is behind the car and ferrari have no doubt the best car, and the wins arent micheal's Credit,there the Car's and the tactical and mechanical genius behind the car.

I said driver, not F1 driver. I bet Shumacher would always be speeding.
Please for the best part of his career he's been in the fastest car, he's had no one i'd call a top class rival. Hill was ok, Hakkinen was ok, Jenson Button? Boy you need a slap. The only guy that can challenge him isn't even allowed to bloody pass him for christ sakes.
Great drivers always had a great rival to contend with. Senna or Prost would have won lots more titles if they were around at different times. Not to mention they did the majority of the work with the car unlike today where it's not the better driver but who's got the best technology.
My top 3 would be
Fangio
Senna
Prost
> My Dad is a better driver than him.
I'd like to see your dad attempting to drop down from 180mph perfectly to enter a chicane while keeping perfectly in the racing line, then accelerating away oh so smoothly.
Hmm.
