I disagree with JH too. If DC had spent his final year being either an arrogant brat or a PC droid out of the ****pit I'd agree but he was a credit to himself in his controlled but non-PC anecdotes and his own self-assessment (of incidents as they happened AND his carreer), just a shame he didn't keep it 'on the island' a bit more during races

F1 » DC should've maybe 'stopped a year earlier'

David Coulthard perhaps carried on one season too long in his F1 career, suggests three-time former grand prix winner Johnny Herbert - but Rubens Barrichello still has plenty to give.

I completly disagree with this story: DC quitted when he felt it right to, when he was still enjoying it. :) Red Bull offered him a seat for 2008 and he took it. :D Sorry, but Johnny Herbert wasnt exactly one of the most successful drivers was he? :p Why is he now coming out with advice like this, besides its irrelevant now. :rolleyes: Perhaps hes just trying to stay in the public eye??? :?
But this is his opinion and I respect that! :D

Again, another quote a little misconstrued, taken a bit out of context...
He basically said in hindsight, he should of quit a year earlier because of his poor form, I'll be honest, I'd rather finish on a high, so in hindsight, I'd of said he should have quit a year earlier. However, a year ago didn't at all seem like the right time to quit - only looking back. Hindsight.

I hope I got my point across, don't batter JH.

I agree with Johnny's opinion (even though he is one of those never has beens). DC should have quitted after his stint with Merc was over.
