The person I admire
Michael Schumacher is a Formula One Racing Driver who was born on 3 January 1969. He was previously from Ferrari and now he is driving for Mercedes GP. Schumacher was born in West Germany. When Schumacher was four, his father modified his pedal kart by adding a small motorcycle engine. His parents took him to a racing track where he became the youngest member of the karting club. His father soon built him a kart from discarded parts and at the age of six Schumacher won his first club championship. To support his son's racing, Rolf Schumacher took on a second job renting and repairing karts, while his wife worked at the track's canteen.
Regulations in Germany require a driver to be at least 14 years old to obtain a kart license. To get around this, Schumacher obtained a license in Luxembourg at the age of 12.
In 1983, he obtained his German license, a year after he won the German Junior Kart Championship. From 1984 on, Schumacher won many German and European kart championships. By 1987 he was the German and European kart champion; he quitted school and began working as a mechanic. In 1988 he made his first step into single-seat car racing by participating in the German Formula Ford .
Schumacher finished third in the Drivers' Championship in 1996, and helped Ferrari to second place in the constructors' championship. In 1991, he competed in one race in the Japanese Formula 3000 Championship, finishing second. According to the official Formula One website is "statistically the greatest driver the sport has ever seen" Michael holds many of the formula's driver records, including most championships, race victories, fastest laps, pole positions, points scored and most races won in a single season in 2004. In 2002 he became the only driver in the sport to complete an entire season finishing 1st, 2nd or 3rd in all races.
Michael Schumacher is greatly admired by a lot of people including me and to me, he is the greatest racer who ever lived.
