A Drink With Eddie Irvine, Episode #01 (On why Vettel is a "spoilt brat" & Schumacher is the best) 

He doesn't like Ted because Ted slammed him 4 years ago when Eddie was ranting about current F1. Too bad the interviewer didn't mention that.

Stormy Molnjavichen Ah I see. It's s shame Irvine isn't interested being a commentator, I see him having the attitude Hunt had in his commentary days.

This happened at the 2011 Italian GP . You can find it on youtube.

Oh yeah, Irvine commentating would be a sight to behold! :D I think he would be more extreme even than Hunt.

Hugh McGregor who do you mean by kids?

Senna89 I think those 3 losers you love

Jenson Button didnt feel like that

He didn't want to stay no.2 to Michael !as stated by his then personal manager and sis!

P.S. must say, big faux pas to consider Austrians and Germans as the same lol. I had a funny moment in Greece once with an Austrian couple who complained when I mentioned they were speaking in German and I joked that Austrians think Beethoven was Austrian and Hitler was German.....don't ever tell an Austrian he speaks German.

Ingmar Fey I can see what you tried to do there. But nah

when you race at the level Eddie raced, you understand what F1 is all about. He was the equivalent of a Bottas today, I don't see what difference winning 5 titles would give anyone in understanding the the environment. Talent just helps you win more, not understand who is fast or what is good or bad for the sport

"a self confessed cheat but praised by the media still to this day (he should have his 2nd title removed from the records and it should be reinstated to its rightful owner Alain Prost)" a self confessed cheat but praised by the dumb fanboys still to this day (he should have his 1st title removed from the records and it should be reinstated to its rightful owner Damon Hill)

12:26 "...as soon as Senna was dead..." this comment sort of puts Schumacher on a lower level than Senna.

Born in '65 so 60 next year.

Fred Flinstone fuck him yes but it doesn’t belong here

He clearly hates Trump and Brexit so much that he felt he had to talk about it. Good for him

​@@waitwhat-qg9bcmuppet

you alwats over react to things like that? wow, imagine when you have a real problem.....

​@fabiobalenzano6439 You always.

Breathing exercises 😮

he's 51, bending over and being recorded by a low fps webcam which is adding blur to everything and is poor with colours and low light. He looks fine for 51, fine for anyone and his body language and skin look completely normal if not good for 51.

entertaining :)

Rizzo93 Well, maybe he is entertaining, yes. But there are surely more competent folks out there, when it comes to motorsports.

chakko007 honest, entertaining, to the point, an insider not any commentator.

chakko007 He outqualified Barichello 12-5 in 1995 and got a podium in crap Jaguar.

How do you figure?

what about a young inexperienced schumacher in his very first full season beating a very experienced senna at his peak in 1992? what about schumacher beating nelson piquet despite just being a rookie?

Schumacher beat 3 times world champion Nelson when both finished races but not many figured this out.

+TheKestevon Yeah MS haters will never mention this sadly.

Hamilton beat Alonso...ok. But Schumacher won three titles and fought for another 3 in an inferior car. What has Hamilton achived when you take the best car away? 0 titles, not even 1 fight for a championship. Loosing against Jenson Button - definetely not one of F1s all time greats...winning ans fighting for titles in an inferior car proves superior driving skills. Winning in a dominating car is just delivering. So yes - Hamilton did beat Alonso. But he also did prove he was not able to win championships or even put up a fight for the title without the best car. But thats what all the greats have proven - Jim Clark, Senna, Schumacher- they WERE able to fight for titles in an inferior car. Hamilton is not. So - in relation to driving skills - Schumacher was, without a doubt better than Hamilton. And by the way - one of Schumachers teammates was Piquet, a three times World Champion...Schumacher fought against Senna on the track, one of the best drivers ever...against Häkkinen, who, speedwise was on a similar level to Senna(what his qualifying victory proved in 1993 and Senna being totaly surprised about how he was able to do that...)...and you mention the competition against a Ricardo, who never was able to fight for a title, or a Vettel ,who never was able to put up a close title fight after loosing the dominant car and even lost against an unexperienced team-mate, is a more competitive competition than Senna, Häkkinen, Alonso, Villeneuve, Montoya or Raikönnen in their prime??? Thats definetely a way to proof two things - lack of knowledge, or/and lack of reality. And a Max Verstappen was not a competitor in any way against a car that was so dominant that even a turtle like Bottas was able to win races...only in 2021 he was...and immediately has beaten Lewis! And Verstappens car was, over the course of the season definetely NOT the better car...and if we are talking at Bottas - yes, that was the competitor Lewis had for 5 years...definetely worse than a Massa who almost won the championship, a Irvine who almost won the championship, a Barrichello who was regarded as a big talent, or a Brundle who challenged Senna for the title in F3, or a Piquet who was a three time World Champion...so if you look closely and with some real knowledge - Schumacher had a much harder competition, but did not have the dominant car for many years, and teammates who were not much worse than Hamiltons... Alonso 2 times World Champion-->Piquet three times...Button, not one of the all time greats and not better than Massa. Rosberg was good but the difference between him, Irvine, Barrichello or Brundle was not really high. So the difference between Schumacher and Hamilton only is about one thing - when Schumacher did not have the best or dominating car, he also fought and won titles...Hamilton not. But only fighting and winning titles AGAINST the best car proves superior driving skills and being one of the best ever. Not winning in a dominant car...thats just delivering. And Hamilton was never able to do anything else. Without the best car he was only an also-runner and random winner...Schumacher was able to win the title...against better drivers than Bottas, Ricciardo, Vettel or a Verstappen in a car that was 1 sec./lap slower....
