I rate him 7-10 he is gradually improving i think he will do well at the end of 2010 season, not bad for a 41 year old, i have always had faith and hope with Michael, he has been a great friend of mine since 1991.if World Champion is not this year it will certainly be next year.

I'd say 6.5 too. For a 41 year-old who has been out of the sport for 4 years and in which time many changes have been made, I expected him to start slowly. I never expected him to come out and win the championship and anyone who did was being ridiculous. And he has answered his critics by coming back and out driving Rosberg two races in a row. Plus he showed his old racing grit in Monaco. Unfortunately he was penalized for racing there though.

Rosberg is the one that should be pressured to beat Michael. He is far younger and is supposedly a world champion in the making, he has alot to prove against his older team mate. Michael has nothing to prove and he is showing his quality by slowly getting to grips with the car.

I would rate 6.5...he has exceeded my expectation based on a substandard car, that is just starting to see fruition...Mercedes is VERY hungry to humble McLaren...

2. he got stuck behind DiGrassi for most of one of the first races. he is starting to improve, now in comparison to his team mate. onloy because they built him a car which is more suited to his driving style.

i would say a 5
