A letter to God...

Dear Mr.Schumi,

It has been a real long time since I last wrote to you (Hell ! I've never written to you before!!)..But this is at a juncture when i couldnt refrain from making it public....I had to take this opportunity to commend you on your great caliber behind the wheels....What if all you did was manage to stall your car in the middle of an already narrow track...It takes a lot of courage to do such an atrocious act, to assume that the billion odd fans watching you were fools, and still go ahead and declare that it was an "technical snag"...

I condemn all those race stewards who called you guilty at the end of a long discussion behind closed doors...Am sure this is a part of their long term conspiracy to bring you down...Worry not...The mean ones can not rule...

I also appreciate the support that your team has given you through time...making sure that Alonso was behind you when you stalled and hadnot passed ahead by a slight...What if that had happened...and your play would have not achieved its rightful purpose...? One should always applaud the team that is so lured by you and your skills that it promises loyalty for good...I recollect a few years back when we were blessed with a dramatic finish, two ferraris finishing a typical race-like finish...what if the one reigning had to back off...God shall prevail forever right....

But I sometimes wonder if I am deceived...in believing that you are the best f1 driver till date...For this childish behaviour was not what one would expect of a pro...Are we going back in time by any lame mistake...? You know what you could have done to make me stop thinking so...? You could have atleast collided against one of those barricades in Monaco...A small crash...nothing that the Expert ferrari crew cannot fix....And nothing that would have taken you to a doc...

Now with years of driving, you know what I mean by a light crash right...? Hmm..Its not one of those that you have had in the past, every time you realised that the guy overtaking you might land up finishing before you..No..those were real bad...I mean one of those small ones...That would have surely made a better story to tell , than stalling the car there at the edge of the track; like an expert parking on a busy NY road craving for space....That didnot show age and expertise in the act sir...

I remember all those nerve wracking discussion I have had with friends about you being the best f1 driver till date...About you being the God of the sport...Has God been replaced by younger blood now..?? Has this scared him off his seat...??Is that why he is acting this irrational..??

Can you mail me back these answers..??

All the best for a brilliant acting career ahead...

Yours faithfully,
A disappointed F1 fan...

PS:Can you please pass this mail over to Micheal Schumacher, the seven times world champion, if you find him around..??
