11:43 - it's so funny how Martin mentions this as I've always thought the same. Lots of drivers drove poorly that whole weekend- Imola 2006 was weird in that sense. Anyways, we should thank Kimi Raikkonen's unreliable McLaren for the 2005 duel. It would have been an afterthought otherwise.

These F1 cars look so much better then the SUV-sized F1 cars that are driven today.

Perfect example of why DRS has ruined the drama of F1

Back then cars could follow each other since there was less dirty air due to the aerodynamics! If they remove the DRS in modern F1 it will be boring! The real problem isnt DRS

Miss this type of racing, a driver defending for his life. DRS has killed this type of action, DRS would have rendered both these races down to as easy pass. Shame these races were not on the current imola layout without the final chicane.

That is true but with the amount of dirty air last gen cars were producing made the DRS very important tool. But with the new gen cars if they are able to solve that dirty air problem to some extent then probably as soon as next year onwards the DRS might be ditched completely...

I remember watching this race live as a kid in 2006 and it was a happy race for me, to see Schumacher back to his competitive best, after not being able to fight against Alonso and Räikkönen for the championship in the previous year and win a race on merit, rather then that farce at the 2005 US GP.

I actually had this kind of battle on f1 game. I was ironically driving a ferrari but in this case hunting down verstappen. I was literally behind him for about 10+ laps and even with drs i couldnt get past cos of cars straight line speed Anyways on last lap i got within 4 tenths before the main straight and as i approached turn 1 i pulled out to the right to try an audacious move around the outside... But guess what? A backmarker was there so i went straight into the back of him and retired from session. The backmarker was an Aston martin driver. I wont need to tell you which one it was lol

I’d say Senna personally. 1993 in South Africa and then later in that same year in Great Britain.

Those Ferraris were insanely quick. I cannot believe Kimi and Fernando took as many wins as they did against them. Just shows that having so many variables such as Different Tyres, Refuelling, , broader design rules really could make the racing interesting both on/off the track. On a side note Mercedes won a race now as I predicted in April - I knew the design has potential in it and it would be criminal to throw it all away for 2023.

Só foi aparecer um piloto acima da média como o Alonso que Schumacher parou de ganhar mundiais na fórmula 1. Schumacher ficou de 1994 a 2004 sendo campeão e batendo todos o recordes contra pilotos medianos.

these battles prove why DRS is the worst thing to happen to F1. If DRS existed in 2005 then Schumacher would've just blasted past Alonso at the first opportunity. The lack of it meant that Schumacher was having to invent different ways to overtake and it meant that Alonso had the chance to defend his position. The argument for DRS is "it aids overtaking". But what stunning overtake in the last 5 years lives long into the memory? None. These battles between Alonso & Schumacher featured, ultimately, no overtaking. But they are remembered because of how fierce the battles were

Alonso head and shoulders above Schumacher.
