Schumi will be out for 6 to 8 weeks and will be replace by Jean Alesi. Ferrari ask Sauber to let Jean drive for them and Peter Sauber said yes !!!. Bye Coco
>Woo-hoo! >Alesi back at Ferrari!!! There's the minor matter of the fact he's under contract to another team... And who wants him anyway with his *1* lifetime win... Let Luca Badoer have the seat until Schumi returns and give Irvine the chance to show what he's made of as a team leader.
I can't believe Schumacher broke his leg. Not seeing one of the greatest drivers of all time ruins the season for me. David G Fisher > Schumi will be out for 6 to 8 weeks and will be replace by Jean Alesi. > Ferrari ask Sauber to let Jean drive for them and Peter Sauber said yes > !!!. > Bye Coco

>>Woo-hoo! >>Alesi back at Ferrari!!! >There's the minor matter of the fact he's under contract to another >team... And who wants him anyway with his *1* lifetime win... Doesn't that "other team" use older Ferrarri engines? If so this could be part of the price :-) -- Header address intentionally scrambled to ward off the spamming hordes. cisko [AT] ix [DOT] netcom [DOT] com
Yes, it sure is a disappointment hope Schumi gets better soon, too bad Ferrari can't get his brother Ralph to jump in the Ferrari, what a stomping performance from Ralph so far this season in that dog of a Williams. Hoping that Mika doesn't run away with the championship now, despite the fact that I like Mika, an easily won championship somehow just doesn't mean as much as a close fought one. Seeyas on the track. --John (Joao) Silva
Yeah, who the hell wants to post in r.a.s.f1, where any post on any subjects starts a flame war of gargantuan proportions? I prefer to stick to chatting with the people I know and respect. Cheers! John
Indeed John!! I was a regular reader and poster on r.a.s.f1 for years but gave up about two years ago when that newsgroup degenerated into nothing besides driver and nationality bashing, (if I liked that I'd be an IRL fan :-) Much better to discuss things with the nice people in r.a.s. and after all racing is not too far OT for this newsgroup especially compared to some of the flamefests here lately. Besides I don't see Zonkie contribute much to this newsgroup other than start bandwidth-wasting flame threads with his attempts at being newsgroup topic policeman. (Just so I am on-topic), I was looking at that same corner on GPL's version of Silverstone and if Schumacher had the same crash in 1967's Silverstone at that speed, the dirt banking would have launched him into orbit, lucky for him he had a tire wall to stop him. Seeyas on the track. --John (Joao) Silva >Yeah, who the hell wants to post in r.a.s.f1, where any post on any >subjects starts a flame war of gargantuan proportions?

Alesi was probably holding a gun at Pete's head. Of course if it had been a Sauber gun it wouldn't have worked anyway...
Dave Schw 13 Jul 1999#479797
Actually Alesi turned down the offer to replace Schumi for the next few races, saying he didn't want to come back under these conditions and would prefer to be Schumi's teammate, not a temporary replacement. It looks like either Badoer or Salo will fill in. As someone else in this thread stated, Sauber uses Ferrari engines and was willing to loan Alesi based on their working arrangement. >Schumi will be out for 6 to 8 weeks and will be replace by Jean Alesi. >Ferrari ask Sauber to let Jean drive for them and Peter Sauber said yes >!!!. >Bye Coco

That's very nice. I just heard that Ed the Talking Horse would be the replacement. Unfortunately, my source (this can of beer) is extremely unreliable. How's your source? -DK

Hey, a championship is a championship. I don't care if all the other cars broke wodn after two laps - I'd *take* it. :-) Now, maybe I'd want my SECOND championship to be a duel... <g> __ Put your message in a modem, and throw it in the ***-sea... remove SPAM-OFF to reply.
