Întreb și eu fotbalul nu vă interesează?

If you ask me I am interested in traditional european football. Not american football or soccer. :heart_eyes:

I have more than once been requested about creating an own topic about specific learning my own mother tongue language, norwegian, from english. But I have said no to it. I am inadequately interested in it. :slight_smile:

Wow one of the GOATs of Formula 1. :disappointed_relieved:
Without him Michael Schumacher would not have been in F1. He helped many young talents and also was famous for his sense of humor.

Race in peace, Eddie

Without Eddie probably a lot of recognized names wouldn’t have made a career out of racing, was such a great character, I used to like his insight when he was a presenter

Notably successful drivers who began their F1 careers with Jordan include multiple World Champion Michael Schumacher (1991), Championship Auto Racing Teams(CART) Champion Alex Zanardi (1991), F1 race winners Rubens Barrichello(1993), Eddie Irvine (1993), and Ralf Schumacher (1997), and Indy 500 winner Takuma Sato (2002).

drivers who had failed to achieve expectations with other teams to perform at their best. Most notably, Heinz-Harald Frentzen won two races to challenge for the 1999 World Championship, something he had failed to do for the much more competitive Williams team in 1997. Andrea de Cesaris rehabilitated his reputation from that of a ‘crasher’ to become a dependable driver during his season with the team in 1991, and Jarno Trulli, Giancarlo Fisichella and Nick Heidfeld each used their time at Jordan Grand Prix to show potential and be recruited by larger teams.

I also believe that the Mclaren drivers, Piastri and Norris, have the faster car in China in terms of qualifying and the sprint. Only in the race will the experience of Verstappen and Red Bull prevail.
But maybe Ferrari will put a spanner in the works! :wink: :laughing:

They do nearly every race, unfortunately for them it’s normally done to their own drivers

The last people to really get to grips with Ferrari were Michael Schuhmacher, Ross Brown and Jean Todt.
Especially Michael, who was not only a good driver but was also able to tell the so-called engineers what the car was lacking and what faults were still there.
It’s a shame that Michael had that skiing accident. I would have liked to have seen him as Farrari team boss. Then things would look different there today.
