True, that's always a possibility.... But given that Schumacher couldn't beat a younger driver in an inferior car in his last season of F1 I don't think it was too likely. Even notwithstanding his age, given his physical condition I doubt he would have done better than a points finish in Valencia. Still a decent achievement but perhaps not what some were expecting. Still, it's all speculation now so in some respects a pointless discussion....not that that has ever stopped us before

Personally, I would have go no enjoyment from watching him be embarrassed by the Force India’s and Toro Rosso’s I think he’s realised he’s not going to be competitive and he’s chickened out. |

I am both happy and sad for Badoer. I am very pleased that he finally gets his reward, after so long as a test driver, and finally gets a race. He is undoubtedly familiar with F60 from testing, so that's not a problem. But he hasn't raced in ten years. He has never raced at Valencia, and he has never been amongst such a competitive grid, and he is in a Ferrari. At Minardi, his target was only to try to pick up a few constructors points. A couple of WCC points for him then was as good for the team as a win. Just what Ferrari will expect from him, is dreadful burden for him to carry into therace. |

He doesn’t need a worm, just mention anything negative about Schumi or BMW and he bites. Like some kind of protection agency But in all honestly, I think there is more to this then meets the eye. |

Yer he is going to be in some amount of pressure. Testing is one thing but racing is another. If i was Ferrari i would take him to a kart track ASAP |
