   We can agree to disagree.   
   I've been following F1 since mid-seventies.   
      
   There were some competitive and arrogant drivers: Hunt, Senna, Alonso,   
   Michael Schumacher, Jacques Villeneuve, Montoya, Nelson Piquet,   
   Hamilton.   
      
   But only match in this regard with Max Vertsapen could be Michael   
   Scumacher. These two stand out in this group.

   It's better to be judged by twelwe than carried by six.
