A sad day and the end of an era. At least I will be able to tell my children that I once attended a live F1 race and watched Michael Schumacher take the checkered flag.
I would bet on Kimi beating Fernando next year, especially since McLaren is so amazingly inconsistent. Sure, they rival Ferrari on a good day, but how often are those? The Kimi-Felipe rivalry should be interesting, too. Throw Lewis Hamilton into the mix, and you have the recipe for a really interesting post-Schumacher season.

The peculiar evil of silencing the expression of an opinion is, that it is robbing the human race; posterity as well as the existing generation; those who dissent from the opinion, still more than those who hold it. If the opinion is right, they are deprived of the opportunity of exchanging error for truth: if wrong, they lose, what is almost as great a benefit, the clearer perception and livelier impression of truth, produced by its collision with error. ~John Stuart Mill, On Liberty
