[edit] Engineered who?

From 1992 through 2004 the World Drivers Championship was an exclusive battle between 'Schuey' and 'Newey', with Michael Schumacher driving to 7 titles whilst Adrian Newey engineered Mansell, Prost, Hill, Villeneuve and Hakinnen to 6 titles. I understand the implication of what's being said here, but I don't think it's fair to Nigel Mansell and Alain Prost to suggest that Newey won their titles for them. Those two were more than capable of beating Michael Schumacher in any kind of decent machinery, not to mention that Schumi wasn't second in the WDC in either year (Patrese-1992, Senna-1993). Now for Hill, Villeneuve and Hakkinen, that's a different story... Jsc1973 14:57, 1 March 2007 (UTC)
