gdadphil Posted November 17, 2020 Report Share Posted November 17, 2020 even if he retires in the next few years he will still be under 40 and rich beyond dreams (currently worth around £250 million) what the heck will he do next?? too old for two wheels ...... Driven by a desire to win, he will need to have a team helping him to adjust without negative consequences. if he wants to keep the fans on his side he could do humanitarian stuff, if he does anything political he will be forgotten in a few years!! those of us who have retired at a more normal age around 65 find it difficult to adjust............................. but retiring at 40??????? cheers gdadphil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amateur Posted November 17, 2020 Report Share Posted November 17, 2020 Oh! I would have been very happy to have retired at 40, particularly with £250m, when I still had my looks. 😁 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not changed my opinions of him - if anything it's reinforced them! I thought it was noticeable how devoid the article is of anything away from racing. And I can imagine he's still a nightmare to be in a team with. peerless as a racing driver, but not someone I'd like to have a beer with.

clangerman Posted November 17, 2020 Report Share Posted November 17, 2020 a great talent housed in a fool who takes the knee for the lives of others with 250 mill in his pocket how embarrassing for f1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scully Posted November 17, 2020 Report Share Posted November 17, 2020 Some sports commentators have stated that he should be knighted; based on the logic behind the reasons of some knighthoods it’s hard to disagree. I didn’t get her name but one commentator whom agreed it should happen, also stated it wouldn’t, because he lives in Monaco. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
