Hamilton: Maybe it's because I'm black

Never heard him say anything remotely interesting either. I am not condoning what Hamilton said — it was clearly ill-judged — but let's not place Schumacher on a pedestal as regards his character, please.

Just because you don't like him?! :rotflmao:

MS has been a professional in and out of the car. Hamilton in neither case.

Looks like Hamy chose to play it the Senna moaning way.

True but there were odd moments with Schumi - didn't particularly like the Brits at one stage - the media gave him some hard time, didn't like DC moaning about his driving standards like chopping at the start, and blanked Brundle for a few years.

Come on ioan. Lewis was a donkey in the race and a buffoon in front of the microphone, but you can't seriously expect us to suddenly accept that Michael too hasn't had his share of stupid on- and off-track moments.

Hamilton acting like a tit doesn't miraculously make Schumacher a saint.

In 2006 some drivers thought Schumi should've been more accountable about his so called driving conduct. Trulli was one of those who was unhappy and thought Schumi should have been accountable.

Stupid MS off track moments? Tell us more unless you read it in some rag, then I am not sure it's worth it.

Did Trulli also bring his photos with?

First one which leaps to mind is him storming down the Spa pitlane to "f---ing kill" Coulthard.

After losing the WDC in 1997, Schumi thought he did nothing wrong by crashing into Villeneuve.

And went on to say they punished him because of his race or nationality?!
Let's be fair and point it out that he even publicly acknowledged that it was his mistake.
