Of course it is very much down to personal perception but it was evident that Mika had to back off excessively. 10 years earlier, Schumacher would have been condemned for such a move. |

Don't make me laugh... 10 years earlier Senna and Prost were happily taking each other off and winning championships in the process... don't you follow F1 at all

I have watched this video several times.Constantly stopping and starting it even before Mika looked like challenging Schumacher. Schumacher was already moving onto that line before Mika looked like he was challenging. I would not call that a chop by any definition.It was an agressive defensive move.But a chop never |

And remember how the FIA treated Senna at the time? I seem to remember that Senna's superlicence was suspended until be made a rather humiliating appology to the FIA. Yes I do follow F1. |

Isn't that what Ruben did in the season opener of 2002? |

Or was it Ralf that went over the back of Rubens. Looks like my humor attempt was about as successful as Irvine's title run....

it's the same thing all the time with John, if he can't win an arguement he starts calling people racist it's pathetic, what's the point of discussing anything racing incidents? how deluded can you get |

To my knowledge, the Germans and the Anglo-Saxons are not actually different races... and so being anti German or in your case anti one particular German is not racist, If for example your views lean towards some immigrants and Muslims that would constitute a racist outlook or at the very least take an racist slant... then that would be a different matter who knows.. But You thinking you are being called a racist does not mean you are been called one
Oh I dunno.... as deluded as posting cheat at every opportunity when you do not post it about other past and more recent convicted cheats...

Aaargh... how can one German (who really should be Finnish) dissing another end up with a discussion on racism? Only on TPL.... |

Born and raised in Germany to a German Mother and a Finish father who does not live in Finland.... why pray tell should Nico be Finnish... He should be what he wants to be and I recall he raced pre F1 as a Finn.

So why did he change nationality for F1 then? Maybe his dad (who after all, drove for Mac as well as Williams) had a word with Norbert who told him that he;d have to be German to race for him?

Nico raced as a Finn (or at least with a Finnish flag by his name) but has always been a German national and as far as I am awear speaks little Finnish but German as his first language... as for why the flip flop?... who knows, who cares, it obviously suited him to be either at some point
