SchM is under investigation
For trying to run former team mate Rubens into the wall
|
So he should be, that was as dangerous driving as I've ever seen in F1. I'm all for a bit of hard racing, but he crossed a line by pushing Rubens so close to the pitwall.
No point penalising him today, he was out of the points anyway, but hopefully a grid penalty when we eventually get to Spa. |
once a cheat always a cheat i`m glad he came back to mercedes where he has a decent teammate that is beating him up like a redheaded stepson where he doesnt get special treatment and the myth of the winningest drivers is being dissipated race by race.

He's just told the BBC that he went so far to the right to make it obvious to Rubens that he was leaving a gap to the left http://www.motorsportforums.com/imag.../roll_eyes.gif

Cheatmacher completely unapologetic too. http://www.motorsportforums.com/images/styles/World/icons/icon13.gif

A bit too close there.
|
Maybe a race ban is what is needed this time.
It would also give Heidfeld a chance to shine, hopefully. |

He's always been this hard on the track, but now no one is scared of him anymore. I have to say its time for him to go - he's a danger to himself and everyone else. |
I agree with all here, it was a terrible move.
If once he had exited the last corner he had defended on that line, then fine but to turn so late once Rubens had started the move. I don't think a Grid Penalty is enough, I think like ioan and Sonic he should recieve a race ban and Heidfeld will show some form, that Michael hasn't got this year. |
I am a fan of hard racing but this defensive move by Michael Schumacher went well beyond that. The only reason Rubens Barrichello did not end up in the wall was because it ended allowing him to a little more right into the pitlane exit (I don't want to imagine if someone had been exiting the pits at the time) and avoid a collision that Schumacher almost seemed intent on causing. Rubens still had to take partially to the grass. Bad move by Schumacher.
|
He's just told Italian TV "I think I left him too much room because he passed" (my italics).
Seriously. |
So he made an error and knew Rubens was coming. He moved one way to indicate to Rubens to go the other, and yet he kept moving across http://www.motorsportforums.com/imag.../roll_eyes.gif
That was seriously close to the wall. I don't think a time or grid penalty is enough. The FIA stewards need to clearly indicate this kind of driving is not acceptable. Whether it's Schumacher doing it or anyone else. |

I obviously left him plenty of room, as he passed no problem. http://www.motorsportforums.com/images/smilies/eek.gif http://www.motorsportforums.com/imag.../roll_eyes.gif |
Well, he did ask for it.
Who was in the wrong, Rubens or Michael? Poll Please!!! |

but actually, I think he thought he had blocked him and RB would go to the left, but he went for the gap to the right....when MS saw it, finally, he immediately gave him room and let him have the corner....he could have kept him boxed in... so while it looked crazy, I am not so sure it was intended to be as mean as it appears, and no worse than Kubica's move into the pits by slashing across the nose in Canada BTW, it appears that rubens gained an advantage by going off the racing surface???maybe he should be required to give it back??????http://www.motorsportforums.com/imag...es/biggrin.gif |
Surley no need for a Poll.
Rubens brilliant. Schumacher a disgrace. |
Good on Rubens http://www.motorsportforums.com/images/styles/World/icons/icon14.gif
Schumacher completely in the wrong! |
look again....
poll needs to have a neither |

If anyone doesn't think this kind of move can be dangerous take a look at the accident that happened to Chris Van Der Drift in the Superleague race today:
