People deadass were like "Michael's overrated he never had a wdc teammate Lewis did ergo Lewis better because he beat them" forgetting one of Michael's first teammates was 3x wdc Piquet *facepalms*

No because despite participating in less than half of the season, Michael still placed 14th above drivers who had participated in every round in 1991.
Michael came third in 1992 beating wdcs like Senna & future wdcs like Mika Hakkinen.
He came fourth in '93 in spite of 7 retirements.
He won 1994 & 1995 which speaks for itself.
The Ferrari of 1996 was like the red bull of 2018, it was quite simply a shit box, a tick time bomb but like Daniel & Max, Michael still managed to drag it not just into the points but into the podium places. He still came third just below the far superior Williams (younger fans be like; šļøššļø, lmao yeah Williams were once one of the quickest on the grid, hopefully they will be again soon). In comparison, his teammate in the same car placed tenth overall.
Schumi I love him but he did commit literal war crimes on track that got him disqualified in '97 but he would've been second had he not.
The McLaren of '98 was a rocketship. Michael still placed second beating Coulthard's McLaren, if not Mika's. He also beat defending wdc Villeneuve & wdc Hill (we love to see it).
'99 saw Michael suffer a broken leg in a crash in Silverstone so he was ruled out for most of the season. Despite not starting seven races, he still came fifth. (Again beating Hill we love to see it).
2000-2004 the historic five in a row speaks for itself. He beat both past wdcs and wdcs in the making and unlike the mercs of the hybrid era there wasn't always such a gap between what the cars were capable of (you can argue '04).
Michael came third in '05, now wdc Alonso and future wdc Kimi taking first and second. Michael came second in '06.
People need to put some goddamn respect on Schumi's name.
āBeating Damon hill youād love to see itā YES ANON WE ABSOLUTELY DO LOVE TO SEE IT.
But seriously Iāve nothing to add, to not respect this man shows how little either they know about the sport or that they purely ignore what he has done in Formula 1.
So šš to you anonš§”
