Cheating prat. A brilliant race driver but a prat all the same. The stewards finally showed some damned balls with him for a change. Quoting from F1 Racing.net, one of the race stewards involved in handing out the cheating Schumi his punishment said:
Quote:
"We don't know for sure if the entire manoeuvre was deliberate, but in that spot he had certainly not done anything like it throughout the weekend. Schumacher braked over 50% more heavily than on the other laps he did. He then performed some absolutely unnecessary and pathetic counter-steering, and that lasted five metres, until there was no more chances of going through the turn normally."
"He lost control of his car while travelling at only 16km/h. That is something completely unjustifiable. And the engine only shut off because he wanted it to by losing enough time before hitting the clutch. And the excuse that he did not engage reverse because there was traffic doesn't make sense at all."

Guilty as charged. A shame really but he had gotten away with murder in the past and quite frankly I wouldn't have been bothered if they suspended him from the rest of the race weekend in particular after his sheepish looking performance at the post qualifying press conference. I won't forget his brillaince behind the wheel nor will I forget the number of times thathe has shafted other drivers over the years.
