Irvine's negative comments about Schumacher are a perfectly
human reaction to being told he is inferior and being humiliated by
having to sign a contract which institutionalizes that situation, ie
he is contractually obligated to lose to Schumacher. Nobody with the
necessary ego of a racing driver should have to put up with that. No
good racing driver could put up with that.
F1 is a devil's trade. They let you drive the fastest high
tech cars, they pay you a fortune, and they treat you like scum.
Irvine should go to CART or even NASCAR, where all this nonsense is
exactly that. Failing that, he should at least realize that the team
can always sabotage him and there is no way to enforce what he wants.

You have already filled rec.autos.sport.f1 with your sometimes offensive
posts.

If that clause is in his contract I would think it is intended
for him if he is leading the WC and has a shot at the title.
Otherwise I would be pissed too if I were Irvine.

I still think it might be better to keep the posts on topic though - such a
strongly worded and opinionated posting is only going to create a thread of
arguments and negative replies. RASf1 would be a far better place for this
post if you really felt the need to get it off your chest :)

I don't think it's a 'perfectly human reaction' to slag off his entire
team as well as his team mate who can't do anything at the moment due
to injury in public after all what they have done for him. Without
them he'd still be the nobody who'd only be remembered as the idiot
who once got punched by Senna for his driving style.

Which a dejanews search seems to verify but really... this is *way* OT for
this NG.
On the other hand, there are lots of people who would like to join you in
Irvine-trashing on rasf1 and lots of people to argue with.
Put on the Nomex and have a ball.

I also don't remember Irv slagging off Schumy. From what I hear, his
version of who's who in F1 reads like this: Schumacher, Irv, everyone else.
He slags off others (especially fellow brits, for some reason), but not
Schumacher.
I agree that he's an idiot, though. Can't stand him myself.
