[Rant] I've now decided I hate DRS

[Bill Boddy]

Surprised it was enabled when the cars where on intermediates, that's not happened before has it?

I still don't like it, doubt I will ever will, but unfortunately will just have to get used to it.

You and me both, on both counts.

As you know mate, I like DRS but I would never expect you to be swayed by my ramblings. I did however come across this in the new issue of F1 Racing from your man Herr Schumacher.

to me its an absolute plus to Formula 1

Page 76. There's a bit more where he explains how DRS made his battle with Lewis at Monza last year exciting,

without DRS there wouldn't be anything - just two cars driving behind each other. It would be a procession. DRS does make for special excitement

I thought the DRS zone at Sepang was much too long, though the nature of the race perhaps obscured this.

Too right. For some strange reason I still think any DRS zone is too long. I just have this thing against Race Control having the ability to dictate the activation and use of a device on track. If it's a tool for the driver to use then the driver should have unrestricted access to use as he so pleases. I'm not a great fan of KERS, ERS it is now known, but at least it is up to the driver to deploy it when he choses to. The only constriction on that is the recharge time but it is still up to the driver how to use it whilst it's available.

Eddie Irvine's not much of a fan of DRS. I was amused by Ted Kravitz's comment at the end.

Indeed.

I wonder what we'd get output by the swear filter.

I always thought he was a prick.

Eddie Irvine the least talented driver to ever win a Grand Prix. I thought Ted's comments at the end were priceless, shame Eddie didn't hear them

 

[Fenderman]

Now, if any driver could be accused of being a playboy without being unfair, it is he.

I always thought he was a prick.

Nah, pricks are useful.

maybe I'm being unfair. He did help Schumi win some of his championships, after all.

 

[gethinceri]

Ha! And Schumacher wouldn't help him win one, brilliant. Shows that Schumacher thought he was a prick too.

Michael Schumacher won 7 Championships in 11 years. The only 4 years in those 11 he did not win the Championship were the four he was Eddie Irvine's team-mate.

 

[gethinceri]

Not because Irvine kept stealing points off him?

Glad someone here was sharp enough to to get that gag.

 

[Fenderman]

For the record. Rubens Barrichello can be credited with helping Michael Schumacher win no less than FIVE of his world championships whilst consistently taking fistfuls of points from the opposition.
