Arguably the Best Racer of All Time
Friday, June 5th, 2009
MIchael Schumacher is basically and arguably the most popular and the best F1 Racing superstar of all time. He is currently a seven-time Formula One world drivers’ champion, and current advisor for Ferrari, which is also the top sports car in the market today. As the official Formula One website would say, he is “statistically the greatest driver the sport has ever seen”. He is the only German to win the Formula One World championship, and is credited with making Formula One in Germany really well-liked. In a 2006 FIA survey, Michael Schumacher was voted the most popular driver of the season among Formula One fans.
Schumacher was supposed to make a return to F1 racing for the 2009 European Grand Prix as a stand-in for injured Ferrari driver Felipe Massa. But then again and much to his fans’ dismay, he was diagnosed as not fit enough to race because of the neck injury that he sustained during a German Superbike test earlier in this year. The best part of him right now is that he is an ambassador for UNESCO and a spokesman for driver safety. He has been involved in numerous compassionate efforts all through his life and donated millions of dollars to charity.
