Schumacher's crash

Hey guys,

strolling to my favourite bakery today I discovered German's top-of-the-line newspaper Bild-Zeitung stating that Schumacher crashed a Scuderia at the Nordschleife. His young son was with him prior to that lap.

I could care less about him taking his son with him (which is a personal decision and perfectly fine with me) or not but does anybody got information about the test itself?

Re: Schumacher's crash

Tomorrows Bild Headline "Schumacher Son (9) crashed his birthday present a brandnew Scuderia"

His father Micheal to Bild" Unfortunly he is driving like his uncle"

Very funny. Michael said about his brother's DTM career that we Schumachers are not good in cars with a roof.

Not politically correct... on a Ferrari board.

They should give it a try with a Boxster

How do you know it's a F142 prototype?

It looks like an ordinary Scuderia to me and why should Ferrari test components in a Scuderia, I'd rather think a standard F430 would do.

Re: Schumacher's crash

I am not a modern Ferrari guy (my salivation stops at the 355), so I don't want to misplace a comment here, but we have a saying in Czech that goes "Even a master cabinet maker can make a chop in the wrong place."

That this can happen even to Mr. Schumacher is good for all the rest of us who ever crashed a sports car. Or did he just happen to hit an oil slick?

Exactly.. Why would he even test a Scud? It's already on the market to buy. Okay maybe he was driving his but we know thats not what his looks like.

Re: Schumacher's crash

It stated earlier that it was a birthday present so he was probably just doing some hot laps. I wonder how many they've given him now? This can't be the first one.

Re: Schumacher's crash

A birthday present for someone else, perhaps. Schumi's birthday is earlier in the year as I recall.
