Á some time ago everyone was talking bad .. and Michael wanted to say goodbye ... I'm the one who spoke well of Michael, who was still the best and that is sent away much as the top team Ferrai, McLaren were at the time hire him. and approves this al POLE in Monaco just give a good car for him, preferably one that does not drop the tire as it happened the other day that He will surely do well and win .. I always hit on my observations .. Frank Williams was another mistake sending Barrichelo though .. would have won several times already this year ..
