They are all very well paid, its their sponsors who pay for their drives in a small number of cases, maybe 2 on tomorrows F1 grid
all 3 hispania drivers pay.plus di grassi for virgin and liuzzi for force india.in the feeder formulas they have to fund their drives

Their sponsors, not them personally. They are still paid well...
its just my opi ion.no need to get nasty.i suppose 100k a week to kick a ball around a field is fair.im just makin the point that some sportspeople dont get the money they deserve.rugby players for example.proffesional cyclists for example

no sponsors no drive though.look at damien faulkner and adam carrol.two young talented and proven drivers who cant get a decent shot at any level because they havent got money behind them

dunno who your quoting ,,but im certainly not been nasty,
Schumacher was being paid approx a million a race when with Ferrari
not including sponsors,adverts, merchandise and so on
personally,,,id so do it for free

No dispute on that but your first point was that motor stars were not paid enough. Sport is a business now and those that bring in the money get paid more. Soccer will pay its players more coz it has it to pay. Life isn't always fair....

thats bull,,,Adam Carroll hasnt made the cut for the same reason as alot,,,hes just not quick enough,,,hes drove for,Sauber,Mclaren,Jordan, and Williams as test pilot,,, as youve used soccer as a comparison,,,,,,,are we to use all players that have been quiet good but never made the 1st team?????we'll be here all night

Personally, I'd do Michael, Jenson, Jarno, Lewis, and possibly, Rubens, (not to mention a wee flickitty at Eddie Jordan)for free .... Doesn't Hockenheimring sound like something interesting to do???
