'Schumi' fails to qualify any higher than seventh or finish any higher than sixth in the opening four grands prix, while Rosberg began from the front row in Malaysia and ascended the podium both in Sepang and Shanghai, standing second in the drivers championship.
Monaco - Schumacher passes Alonso under the safety car, resulting in a 20 second penalty.
Canada - Schumacher puts Kubica into the grass. Then he contacts Sutil and almost wrecks Masa.
Hungary
Singapore - Schumacher brakes late and punts Heidfeld
Japan - Schumacher dices with his teamate while on cold tires, having just exited the pit.
Abu Dabi - Schumacher spins in an unforced error on lap one and almost loses his head.
There are other examples. Schumacher is consistently a hazard to himself, other drivers and anybody in range of the course because he believes he is owed. He is a disgrace.
Yep, and he maintained all year long that the lack of oversteer in the car was not accustomed to his style. That's what he gets for coming into a team after much development. We'll see next year.
Monaco - Schumacher passes Alonso under the safety car, resulting in a 20 second penalty.
Yep, and the team essentially admitted to trying to sneak one past the stewards under a bogus way to read the rules.
Canada - Schumacher puts Kubica into the grass. Then he contacts Sutil and almost wrecks Masa.
I think ALL the blocking antics by a slower-Schumacher came to an end after the Barrichello incident.
Singapore - Schumacher brakes late and punts Heidfeld
C'mon. Braking as late as possible IS F1. There are probably THOUSANDS of examples of too-late braking throughout a season, counting practices and qualifying. Your argument doesn't hold up if you think you can point to a racer who broke late and caused havoc means that racer is a disgrace. It happens at EVERY event.
Japan - Schumacher dices with his teamate while on cold tires, having just exited the pit.
Seriously? Just about ANY racer will try to hold their position coming out of the pits with cold tires. Any racer. It's the guy behind who out-duels if they know how maximize their tire advantage. That's not a slam on Rosberg, who by every assessment, out-drove his team mate all season.
Abu Dabi - Schumacher spins in an unforced error on lap one and almost loses his head.
And yet, had he turned into Rosberg, that's all you'd be saying. Gasp! A racer spins out in traffic in turn one of an F1 race!

Ok, please render an opinion on the China pit maneuver Alonso pulled? And the Webber spin out in Korea, taking out Rosberg?
