He's not doing too badly is he? Given that he's running last years motor in the Tech 3 team, he's not getting the shit kicked out of him. I wonder what he'll be like with a pneumatic valve engine? -- Beav VN 750 Zed 1000 OMF# 19
On Sun, 30 Mar 2008 16:11:12 GMT, "Beav" I see Schumacher finished fourth in a KTM Trophy race today, his first competitive effort. Second quickest lap, too. He says it's "just a hobby" but I wonder how long that will last if he finds himself on the podium.
Not quite his first either. He came 3rd in a BMW race last week (or earlier this week). Not long, although he didn't go on the podium because "I want to keep a low level" or some such bollocks. -- Beav VN 750 Zed 1000 OMF# 19
On Sun, 30 Mar 2008 19:39:32 GMT, "Beav" Missed that - must've been his first KTM race they meant. I think he's currently a man without a mission, and he needs one.
He could always take up acting - plum role for him would be the remorseless robot in Terminator 4. -- Dave GS850x2 XS650 SE6a "A scone and tea at half past three Makes the day a little brighter Keep your cakes and fancy tarts And stick them up your shiter."
Kimi went up in my estimation at Schumacher's final race in Brazil. Brundle: "did you see Michael's parade lap, Kimi?" KR: "No, I was taking a shit"
Is he? Or is this another misconception due to his focus when at work. Julian Ryder was said a similar thing about Pedrosa this weekend also.
Like you were? Mind, that sauna was fucking HOT! He seemed quite animated to me... more accurately he was actually smiling, and not doing the Chandler smile. You could see it in his eyes. He and Lorenzo appeared to spray just the bare minimum of champagne on each other. He told the Spanish press that he has no problems with Lorenzo. Yeah right.
Did you see the king making Pedrosa and Lorenzo shake hands after the race? This has all the making of another Rossi v Biaggi battle.
Lorenzo: "Why won't you shake my hand?" Pedrosa: "Why would I want to?" heh. Later to the press Lorenzo said "I've made every effort, I can do no more".
