As you may have noticed, Michael Schumacher is starting to.. Hmm.. "Lag."

My question, can he overcome bad reliability and McLaren...

And win the championship?

I have to say that the "or at least one"in the McLaren line makes the vote a little difficult as it brings the line between the "Yeah, but just one" line very close. McLaren Likely will get one, but I would hasten that it will be the constructors championship...

The only chance of MS for wdc is 1. at least 2 rain races 2. McLaren gives DC the same clutch as Hakkinen.

So he need david or rain.

It ll be very close. Mika and Michael both need a lot of good luck to win the WC. Im afraid that in Sepang (like last year) and Indianapolis Michael and Ferrari ll be strong. So I bet it ll be 60/40% to Michael to win WC.
Ok it ll be a dry race in Spa so Mikas odds are better.. :)
Lats night Mika was intervieved in Finnish TV. He was confident and ready to win every of the last races.
HANAA MIKA!

Well yeah, Mika and Michael have to look out for Coulthard, this is a very successful season for him. Look how close he is, or actually, look how close the top 3 is!

It will be very close, I'm looking forward to Monza, not Spa although it usually is a decent race, but I can't resist Monza's charm.

Thunder, so now it's the clutch, I thought it was traction control. Same clutch to DC? Now that would not do any good to DC's chances unless you know how is it possible for a clutch to be in two different cars at the same time? I guess you ment Mclaren should give DC same kind of clutch Hakkinen is using, or was it traction control?:)

Yup. He is definitely the rain master. :D

If Spa is wet, which I hope it is (haven't looked at the forecast yet) than I think we'll see MS back on top of the drivers standings...
