Schumi cheated in Monaco

[monk]

Yeah, that was lame. A seven time world champ do not make such "mistakes".

Justice is done! Schumacher was stripped of his pole and has to start from the back of the grid.

Nothing new for ferrari and schumacher to do, win at all costs, especially when theyre struggling for performance. Schumacher cannot race with other cars, and poles mean EVERYTHING to him. All of his non-pole victories of late have come at the hand of stellar clear air laps pre/post pit stops. The ethics of ferrari are sickening and its about time they got what for.

MUHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAA¤#""&&%¤#%&¤%& cough cough cough! Almost choked there... ahem GOOD JOB STEWARDS!


Watching yesterdays driver interviews after the qualifying shows that Schumacher has lost any sense of realism. How can he possibly think that we'll buy his bullcrap explanation?

Only megalomanias would act like that. Christ! Justice for all!

They nailed him on his telemetry! Haha! The readouts on his braking telemetry in the last corner showed a very strange breaking pattern - a pattern not seen all weekend from him. Get lost, ya cheater!

I don't follow Euro GP, but doesn't this douche already make like $25 million a year?

[GodOfRhythm]

In total, all of his sources of income combined, it's closer to $100 mil.

Euro GP? You mean the Formula One World Championship? That's "World" in an actual worldwide sense, rather than the popular "World" in a "best in the USA" usage.

he apparently earned more than twice that much in 2005, somewhere between $60-80 mill. You reckon he's a douche - check out his agent, who's been making off with a meagre 20% slice of the Schumacher pie since '89

The hilarious part is that schumi wouldn´t have needed to do that. Ferrari is fast enough. I can´t understand why he had to do something that stupid.

I started a similar answer to that but gave up due to difficulties with the english language here..

Actually, you could say Euro GP, which would be the Grand Prix' held on European soil. Then there's the American GP and so forth.

But i bet Ron meant it the wrong way Like there is an American Gran Prix Series (like Indy), which there is NOT. There can be only one.

The pole sitter in Monaco wins the race. That's was on his mind when he heard on the radio that Alonso was on a fast closing lap - so he did what he taught himself - win at all costs. Park the car on the street. But this time it backfired.

[thetroy]

Eh he turned the fastest laps of the race, I think he could have taken Alonso if he started 2nd instead of 22nd

but while that would hold true for the one GP event held in the US, Malaysia, Australia, etc., it suggests that there is only one European event.

So it seems Ron was referring to the Formula 1 as "Euro GP" as a championship rather than a single event.
