I remember being outraged at the time, but not with Schumacher personally. He seemed visibly embarrassed and his gesture on the podium was well intended. I know people took their frustrations out on Ruben's but I can understand why someone would be rather naffed off that their hard work and dominance over a weekend was to have its credit given to another driver. Mclaren did a similar thing a couple of years before and I remember being incredably annoyed also.

F1 is a team sport but I don't wish to watch a GP with the expectation that teammates are going to let each other through at any minute. It takes the excitement and achievement out of it for me, but thats just my opinion.

Yes , both were very embarassed by the team .
And , the accolades given for the team player were lost in the outrage at the move .
I remember expecting the move , and also the outrage that ensued .
