It wasn't but a generation or so ago that a NASCAR Cup driver didn't make the big show until he was 30. Now, they start at 18 if they're good enough, like Joey Legano.
In the days of James Hunt and Clay Raggazoni, F1 drivers were in pretty much the same boat, not making the top tier until at least late 20's. Times have changed that.
Schumi is old for what he is doing.

That may be all true. But, with Vettel and his group of youngins, I don't see MS going too far AFA championships are concerned.
