I guess he knows it too………ha Lcat! I remember when Mark came on the scene for the first time,Michael thought he should befriended him for the first race………then when Mark got a podium finish Michael forgot all about that new friendship! Never liked him after that!!

have to agree with you there BM, he has the character of a fatally flawed genius, committing many totally unnecessary aggressive acts on the track when he could have just let his talent for speed do the work.

how cool is his mrs!!!!!
she let him take over and drive like that ha ha ha
and with the kids in the car.

i could imagine her trying to keep awake as she was probably used to it and over trying to tell him not to do that out side of the track

hahaha………I think a similar thing happened to Mark Webber in China once……he was feeling really uncomfortable in the back seat {as you would}.But he didn’t get to drive…

A great example of how celebrities can flaunt the rules the rest of us are bound to abide by.

Pretty funny a guy like Schumi had to take a cab to the airport with his family. It must be some sort of a stunt. The taxi driver should have asked for an autograph too. At least now we know he also drives better than little brother on public roads aside from the track.

When asked about Micheal’s incredible driving in a Taxi, the Australian passenger replied:

The Opel/Vauxhall Vivaro is the same as the Renault Trafic. It would definately have been a diesel.

Also, this not the first time Schumie has driven a ‘taxi’
Checkout youtube with this search ’schumacher taxi’
There is delightful footage of Fisi getting a ride back to the pits in 97′ from Schumi.

It was an Opel Vivaro, a minivan-style vehicle which has a top speed of 163km.

Hi Anthony, it would have been a Mercedes of some description, probaly an E-Class Diesel.

The “Who do you think you are? Michael Schumacher?” won’t work either.
