Schumacher's crashes

Post

hi everybody,

since I haven't seen schumi's crash in free practice, are there any sites that have a small movie fragment of it?

Anyway about his crashes, as my newspaper says he kind of managed some really bad crashes earlier in his career that he would not have survived in the times of Gilles Villeneuve and co.
Thinking of that, it makes f1 a little bit easier. There is no doubt there were extremely good drivers in history that have not been able to show their true potential because of really severe incidents.

I also remember silverstone2001 and monza2003. the list is growing

off topic slightly, has any one noticed the number of spins MS has had since winning the WDC, Monza testing, monza Race, china Q and now Brazil. Each time he's lost the rear end underbrakling resulting in a dramatic spin.
There are rumours he's running some new transmission or control systems in preparation for 2005, if so they look like they need lot smore testing...

There is no better testing than racing it so it could be a smart move from Ferrari to again increase the gap with their rivals.
David Coulthard is the best !!!!!

Well here is the link to the accident....

Well in my opinion Schummy usually spins quite a lot....cause he's always seeking the cars limit....especially in testing/practises....but as soon as he finds that limit he won't pass it...cause if you notice usually he doesn't make too many mistakes during a race...usually they're made during practice....

But in any case hope the transmission rumor is true...and revoltionary :wink:

I loved how the marshals just stood still during that video.
Bring back wider rear wings, V10s, and tobacco advertisements
