Re: Formula 1 2010 Season [may contain real time spoilers]
I have a theory on why Schmacher is behaving the way he is. I think that he wants to be banned, so that he can save face. He has not been performing to the promised level, or what was expected of him and he might be worried about being dropped. However, if he is banned, he won't need to be dropped, he will have the excuse of, "hey, I was a bad boy and got banned, cool huh?"

Michael Schumacher has personally apologised to Rubens Barrichello....The apology, which came via a text message....

Nice personal touch from Michael
Quote:
Somebody said to him that I was under the impression he had pushed me on to the wall, and he said it wasn't the case and he apologised for that.
|
So he didn't apologise for the incident just correcting on the way it happened. Nice one Michael.

Schumacher is a dangerous man who is now looking for notoriety as he knows his driving years are now far behind him, and if to gain that notoriety means killing or injuring a fellow driver I believe he will do it, he needs to step away from racing before something really serious happens.

it was just Schuey being Schuey and nothing he hasn't done in the past so he is unlikely to change.
the current Merc car wasn't design for him and works in a totally different way to how he likes a car to work. Think this shows the main problem with F1, that even a driver as good as MS can't drive around a problem in a car but can only be on the limit when the aero works how he wants.
Next year with new tyres and a car designed for him we will see if he still has it or not

Not a good start for Rosberg and Petrov. Rosberg needed a gearbox change after last practice so will endure a 5 place drop on the grid and Petrov overcooked a corner in the second minute of the first qualifying session so it's been red flagged at 18:02 left on the clock whilst they remove his car.
Of course Schummy has a 10 place drop for his dangerous Ruben's move

Re: Formula 1 2010 Season [may contain real time spoilers]
Going to be interesting if Alonso catches up to Massa, will Massa have to let him pass or will he ignore the order.
Looks like Red Bull are using a different front wing, it doesn't appear to be as near to the ground now, even when the car is stood, me thinks that is why the front wing passed the FIA inspection today.

Shame about Jenson, he did well to get to p2 only to be nerfed off, could of kept his championship alive but I fear it's over for him now. Also pleased Webber outraced Vettel.
