Look at World Superbike racing after Fogerty.
All Sports need a Champion to be competative.
F1 is going to find next year very difficult without MS. I will miss him in this sport. He's the best I've ever seen.
And ask yourself this:
Would you like to race with him?
Would you like to race against him?
Would you want him on your team?
Would you like a driving lesson from him?
Don't Hate.
At least he's not in NASCAR.

I think Michael would probably still say that Alonso is the next great one. There is always someone. Who was the Honda rider who won the 500cc championship 4 or 5 years runing in the 90's? (edit...Mick Doohan) I'm sure many thought that there would never be another like him, what with maufacturer parity, etc. Or Mike Hailwood, etc, etc. And yet you have Rossi now. Fogarty was one of the greats, but he ALWAYS had the best gear and a bit of an unfair advantage with the rule setup that let him run a 916 twin against 750cc 4's.
