Michael who?

Ah yes, Michael Schumacher.

He's back in the centre of the circus ring that is Formula 1.

The 'sport' that has become so entwined in quantum physics that it bores the utter arse off me.

The 'sport' that allows, even endorses fake crashes, cheating, seedy and shady people in their shadier shades.

But no, you scream!

It's all about the competition, the skill, the rivalries, the excitement, the history.

Bollocks.

It used to be.

When I was a child it was about skill, courage, determination, sportsmanship and the best man won, not the radio controlled, temperature cooled, instrument recorded digital machines they use today.

I used to detest him, for his untouchability. In the same way I detested Steve Davis, John McEnroe et al.

Now that he has returned, the question is this.

Ringmaster or clown?
