The reality of Michaels retirement sets in...
 
As Massa takes a spin in the F2007 and Kimi stands by with Michael. You realize he will not be on the starting grid next season.

Given all the long faces it appears that reality has set in on the team as well.

No joy in mudville...... Shuey looks bummed.

since when did shumi stop smiling like kimi? Is he trying to take away the icemans image?

Ferrari today, Ford tomorrow. I'm sure Roush Racing can find a spot for Schuey. :D

There are many others ready to take his place. Hopefully they will be a bit easier to get along with.

I heard MS was going to start autocrossing to have something to do.
Just a rumor, maybe.

He's been racing karts in the off season.

I heard he does BMX.

poof!
 
Scandinavian stoicism notwithstanding, I'm certain the Kimster was friggin' ecstatic that he was no longer in a McLaren after yet another Mercedes engine let go...

Fernando at Valencia yesterday:

Probably. But at least McLaren always seems to have the baddest (not necessarily the prettiest) livery schemes.

Isn't Schuey a team principal? If so, he will have lots of opportunity to enjoy the reality of not being in the car.

Word is that he is "ABSOLUTELY NOT" missing being in the cockpit. Looks like he really was ready to retire. But, perhaps he is just rationalizing.

They see racing is going NASCAR, where all the talent goes.:D

Jims5543 01-17-2007 02:02 PM

Not all long faces...
