Irvine: Schumi the most boring champ ever!

Michael Schumacher is F1's most boring world champion, former Ferrari teammate Eddie Irvine claimed. The Ulsterman, in Barcelona after a similar paddock appearance at Imola, slammed the German as 'past it' and no longer 100 per cent committed. "Michael is the most boring world champion ever,"  Irvine said.

"I couldn't believe him at Imola," 39-year-old Irvine told BBC radio. "All he had to do was pass Fernando Alonso down the inside -- three years ago he would've done it. He's done worse things than that."

"The guard is changing. Under pressure Alonso does not make the same mistakes that Michael does. Raikkonen is up there too."
