And I bet, MS doing 30 in any car with you in the passeneger seat... you will fell like doing 60.
Actually, after taking some driver courses on different tracks I would say the opposite. The more you know about car handling the less "fast" it feels when you are driving.

Yeah, but the cab driver definately never took part in the drivers training.
I saw him driving...

Nope.
The cab driver said he didn't knew taht you can do what MS did with the cab. But full throttle is not his words, it's teh medias words.
Plus, you all know, when you are not in the drivers seat, you feel different. And I bet, MS doing 30 in any car with you in the passeneger seat... you will fell like doing 60.
Yeah that's what i said.

I mean everybody stated he took corners at full throttle (media)
and the cab driver saying he didn't knew his cab could do that (cab driver)

Was my English wrong?!

Short question: was the cab driver a 90yr old grampa? I think that says it all.

What i'm tryint to say is that he MIGHT have driven very fast and sometimes over the law. I again say "MIGHT".

Erm nope ....
"He drove at full throttle around the corners and over-took in some unbelievable places." (said Mr Yilmaz, the taxi driver)
Schumacher's spokesperson Sabine Kehm later confirmed the story.

The story was confirmed, not the words.

I watched him on TV. He told the true and complete story live in his real words.

It was the taxi driver's words, not the media's words. I'm sure whatever MS said on TV wasn't "I broke the law and drove over the speed limit", because that would be even more stupid than what he did !!

Anyway, I'm bored of this topic now, see you in another thread

When they "quote" it doesn't mean it's his words.


I've been a press spokesman myself.
And I've seen the interview myself.

I'm just trying to tell you that the media is lying. Making up a big story out of nothing.
