A Tribute to Micheal Schumacher

Today is Micheal Schumacher's last race before he retires from F1 and competitive racing. It is truly an end to a golden era in F1 racing. His era has spanned for over 15 years and he has broken almost all records possible in the category.
He has truly been a role model for many people especially anybody into car racing. He has redefined F1 racing. He has won nearly one third of his race starts, 91 of them. He has more poles than anybody else. He has 7 world championships, missed 2 or may be 3 in close fights.
Anybody in the F1 paddock would love to beat him in a race as they consider him as a benchmark of racing. That is the kind of respect he gains from all his competitors
His career has been marred with controversies though. We shall not go into them but then, he is one guy who says :I shall go to the edge of what the rules allow him and I shall not let anybody get a free ride". This "going to the edge" has caused many controversies. But then that is way he is..
F1 will never be the same without him.
