Okay so just on this - he’s like a gnats whisker behind Hamilton. But we’re comparing different eras, different technologies, different men.

Both were obviously the most talented of their generations on a number of levels, and not just driving ability - anyone who thinks Schumacher or Hamilton won seven titles (or eight dependent on your point of view) on just driving alone isn’t thinking about what both of these drivers were immensely good at.

Strategy, engineering, getting the best out of their teams, fighting for every corner and position, both of them having superlative abilities in the wet and being able to wring performance from damaged cars too.

Honestly, if you would prefer, you need a lineup of the greats, and you’d have to include champions like Fangio, Mike Hawthorn, Nikki Lauda, etc etc…

There are no terrible champions in F1. But there are a lot of differences between them.
 
Still shumacher above Hamilton all day long ..
just saying
And you’re entitled to hold that view. 🙂

I grew up watching both, I’ve had the best of all worlds. I sometimes wish I’d been able to watch F1 in older periods, like the truly experimental eras where the air intakes were monstrous or when the tyres were huge at the rear, or maybe the six wheeler…

On that note, nodding off, I’m going to call it a night. Sleep well all. We made it through Monday! 🙌

I loved the era pretty much right up until when Shumi retired
