I was shocked when I saw the press interview after the Italian GP. They had been talking of how Michael may be leaving Ferrari at the end of the year during the race. But if that wasnt enough of a shock he ammounced his retirment from GP racing at the end of this season. He has closed to within two points of taking the championship lead with htree races to go. This is the end of an era and Schumacher is without a doubt one of the greatest racing drivers of all time. Its really sad to see him go. I hope he goes on to finish on top.

Goodbye Michael
