Schumey dethroned

Today was a historical day in Formula 1,
in more ways than one..

It was the first time in 5 years that somebody
other than Michael Schumacher has been World Champion.

Fernando Alonzo became the youngest F1 World Champion,
at 24 years of age.

He also became the first Spaniard in F1 history,
to become World Champion.

Next year will most likely be Schumacher's final year
in Formula 1, so he has one more chance to try and win
his 8th championship.

It looks like the next decade will be dominated
by the duel between Alonzo and Kimi Raikkonen.

Raikkonen, a Finish driver, is arguably the best
driver in F1 at this time, although Alonzo is right up
there talent-wise.

It should make for an exciting decade of Formula One.
