There was a programme on ITV1 last night on Schumis career, for some reason it was the first time I saw the 'accident' that Michael made that took out Hill, quite disgusting, he's purposefully crashed into others on what 3/4 accounts, including Mika in F3. Great driver, but flawed like a McLarens engine reliability.
The little tribute on SPEED had similar tones. I think they summed it up quite nicely by calling such "mistakes in judgement" "unfathomable" because Schumacher was usually the best driver on the track, so such transgressions were un-necessary.
 
The front wing end plates are designed so that they don't cut a tyre either.

Desinged that way, but they’ll still cut a tyre reasonably often if there’s contact. It’s the nature of really thin bits of carbon fibre.
 
Anyone know if there's a delete key for the human brain?
"It's a Small World After All..." (repeat ad infinitum/nauseum) generally works for songs, not sure if it works for memories.
 
Now that was a good race. First time I've enjoyed watching Schumacher drive (with his successor, I should add).

And speaking of his successor:

Not that I want to swim into uncontrollable depths, here, but that's not how it went. In fact, Brundle didn't answer that.
