Talkback: Irvine: Schumacher "useless" at bike racing

Me too. 

There's no love lost between those two but at the end of the day who's had the success and who was just an also ran?

Plus I'd like to see Irvine go any quicker on a bike.

That move on RB at Hungarian GP sums up Schumacher, respect his achievements but never liked him.

As for Eddie, keep it zipped eh

Garjon, Schumacher is a FAR better bike rider than you I can guarantee you that. 

And if you mean "gimp" as a disabled person, so is Rossi, so whats your point?  

John Smith - I didn't mention anything about my skills (or lack of them). You can't guarantee anything about my riding because you've never seen me on a bike.  

I was merely pointing out that, in my opinion, Michael Schumacher is a gimp. He's one of the best there has been yes, but with it he's an arsehole.

Also, my use of the word 'gimp' wasn't a slur in reference to a disabled person. I would never indulge in such offensive behaviour.

My definition of the word 'gimp' is someone who in my opinion is a prick.  A definition that I would now use to describe you John Smith.

Some would call Rossi an arsehole for all the shit he's pulled in the last few years (the move on Gibernau, cutting the corner at the Corkscrew at Laguna, et al.), but ultimately winning's winning as far as I'm concerned. The FIA of course are free to disagree and fine or penalize Rossi or Schumi, and I can't recall if thats ever happened, but if it did I presume that both of them took it w/ good grace. 

And, garjon, I say that Schumi is likely a better rider than you (or me) because unless u are a top level club racer, he's likely still better than you and even if you are a racer, he might be better (ie. quicker). The man has tremendous talent, and regardless of his rather vacuous personality on track years ago, the fact that he turned to bike racing at an advanced age certainly elevates him in my books and in most other bikers' books as well.  

Eddie Irvine - pot calling kettle or what ??!!!

Do us a favour Eddie, you couldn't beat Schumacher in a car then, probably not now either. Chances are, you'd be absolutely shite on a bike.

So go and do something something useful. Prick.
