^^^^^ Have to agree ^^^^^^
Blimey. You blokes are bit hard aren't you. 237 GPs, 13 wins. He even managed a podium in Canada this year driving a Red Bull for god's sake. In a "proper" car he's a proper driver. I really don't think many of you realise quite what the differences are between a Ferrari, a McLaren and the rest.

Seconded, he was no Senna or Schumacher (M not R!!!) but he was better than plenty of others & not the luckiest guy around.

About time too..............
I've enjoyed watching him over the years and recently I've enjoyed his comments on live tv - his desciption of Massa and how many colours of
***t he was going to beat out him was one of the great moments of F1
Anybody who can drive one of those beasts is a good driver - just that some are VERY good!
Well i'll miss him, they will only replace him with a foreigner.
I like him, makes a change when someone comments on how glad he is to be out there racing instead of bitching about how slow his car is and how its
everyone else fault.
He just failed to get the right car!
He had the right car in '98 & '99, however 90% of the time Mika was quicker!
On his day DC could be VERY good, but he couldn't do it consistanty every two weeks.
