F1:
Comebacker: It feels like 1991 again
by Virgil Ellipse
4th Feb 2010
Michael Comebacker
SCHUMACHER, MICHAEL
Michael expresses his remorse at having dangerously forced a rival off the track. Again.
When he wasn't driving people off the road, ramming other cars, parking in the middle of the track or trying to punch David Coulthard, Michael Schumacher displayed a dazzling talent for finding new ways to disadvatage his team-mate.
We're being slightly churlish, of course, but Schumacher's reputation as a driver will forever be coloured by the unsporting manner in which he raced. His first break in F1 came with Jordan at Spa in 1991 and his second with Ferrari at Silverstone in 1999, when he fractured a leg crashing at Stowe.
His final F1 drive through the field at Interlagos was a reminder of what his legacy could have been if he hadn't been quite so ready to tarnish it quite so frequently.
The wanker.
TIGRA 16v: The tooltip with lowered suspension and a racing windscreen wiper
says that returning to Formula 1 has made him feel as if it is 1991 all over again.
And judging by their haircuts, it's a sentiment that many of his German supporters share.
Oh, somebody stop us, please.
