Frankly I am amazed, Bernie has been a regular in the paddocks for over 30 years and been involved in F1 for 50, yet most don't get him.
He is being Bernie. If he reads the papers, the motorsport press or these forums we must really crack him up. |

For God sake, is this thread really necessary? Does some really care if he wears the cap or not!

I don't.
I accept the history bit. But I consider the cap to be yet another unnecessary merchandising rip-off. |

Yes, so do I. Funnily enough though, I feel no sympathy for anyone I see wearing them.

Well, whether you like TGF or not, 7 titles is a historical achievement and then some. Bernie's right though, the championship isn't officially over until the last race of the season has been run...

I agree, R.
Even the 'historical achievement' part... |

Although I also got suckered into the TVR rugby shirt, which clearly was a 'unnecessary merchandising rip-off'. |

Yes, but a very nice colour........
Hell, there are so few Ferrari/Schuey merchandising opportunities available to us, aren't there.......? Last edited by Aysedasi; 11 Sep 2004 at 08:35. |

How many caps has Schuey had recently? It must be two per year since 2000? I'm surprised others don't do this.
DC could release an extra one per year, with a stripe added for every year he hasn't won the title. But then, people will buy these things I suppose. Only glad I'm not foolish enough to buy one every year because a stripe has been added, or a number has changed. |

You cant blame Ferrari... if you look all over the world the demand for Schumacher and Ferrari merchandise is hugh... a bit of pocket money earned by their standards
