Schumacher: I'm Guilt

Michael Schumacher has finally admitted that he was the guilty party in his Canadian GP collision with rival Heinz-Harald Frentzen.


(Having seen the the television pictures, I have to say that I did something wrong,) said the two times world champion, (The next time I am in that position I will be a bit further over to make some space.) But Schumacher still refused to believe that he was the sole cause of the accident which removed Frentzen from the race.

Michael Schumacher has finally admitted that he was the guilty party in his Canadian GP collision with rival Heinz-Harald Frentzen.


(Having seen the the television pictures, I have to say that I did something wrong,) said the two times world champion, (The next time I am in that position I will be a bit further over to make some space.) But Schumacher still refused to believe that he was the sole cause of the accident which removed Frentzen from the race.


(People forget that there was no blue flag to warn me,) he continued in reference to the absence of a marshal warning at the end of the Montreal pit-lane. (For me it was clear that there was no-one there and, if that's the case, then I take the line I choose.)


The German has been accused of defying his own safety standards by his peers, and there have been calls for him to quit his role as GPDA safety spokesman. Frentzen was particularly vocal in his opposition to Schumacher continuing in the post, as was David Coulthard who clashed with the Ferrari driver in Argentina. (I think that Michael has some very good views on safety issues,) said the Scot, (but whether he carries them through on the track is different matter.) The issue could be resolved at the next GPDA meeting after the British GP.
