according to dave richards. he apparently has done over michael, rubens, ralf and trulli. whether his move on rubens was brave or not, i really do think that richards has gone way ott. read about it here:

perhaps richards is massaging his ego

His move on Rubens was stupid.

Dave Richards seems to think him and his team are some kind of F1 gods though. They arent. They are just another F1 team, and another set of drivers. they are no special case.

Most feared driver? Ralf in terms of safety, Montoyya in terms of "i want to get past you whether you like it or not"

Totally agree, Dave. That said, Schumacher M seems to be able to scare some drivers off of the road now and again.

imo the most feared driver shud be either michael or montoya. michael bcos hes just so good and jpm bcos the man is a monster (in a good way :)) and i love his driving style. i think it was martin brundle who said that jpm never read the driving textbook :)

personally i think jpm is the most feared driver if there is such a thing. perhaps dave richards was referring to the fact that sato always crashes into someone or other thats why hes feared :)

Put it this way, I'd hate to have Sato right behind me.

On the other hand, it would be ok if I was infront of him :P

Intimidation. 6 time world champion, god knows how many pointless records that we hear about, driving for the most famous team, in a bright red car.

Sato makes some nice moves, too bad that they are usualy stupid. Just imagine who many ppl wud be now moaning about this move if it was made by montoya or MS. He's lucky Honda are backing him, but this wont last forever

tell that to satoru ;)

but seriously, its a strange comment, but then again, richards probably didnt say that, its the media, who probably said that

Takuma was just a bit too keen to stand on the podium, so he took the first chance he got, and it clearly didn't pay off. I put it down to inexperience.

I think Sato and Monty are the best at over taking, well Monty definetly, at Nurbergring the moves he did were outstanding, Shumi would never make them, and as for Sato hes quick, very quick and wont give.

Although his move was abit stupid

David Richards overhyping one of his drivers? Surely not!

I thought sato's move was pretty good also, i was watching wanting him to make a move on that very lap, thinking that no one else had tried from that distance he wont do it.
then wam he comes very late on the brakes, doesnt lock up and almost gets past
he is unlucky his front wing broke, we see MS and JPM touching all the time they are just lucky, Sato was not.

yes you have to give credit to sato for having a go as a lot of drivers do seem content to just sit behind the car infront without even faking moves to try and provoke an error, cant think how you could say satos move was good though he just drove straight into rubens you could see it coming as soon as he started the move.

Chet I suggest that you start at 1991 and rewatch every race before you say that to present - Schumi has made plenty of moves in his time.

if you think about it, it works in his favour cause now other drivers know he will try stuff others wouldn't think about
