Yeees, interesting piece of driving., It did step out a gnats before, then there was a whisker of understeer, not sure but I wouldnt put it past him.

That look of wide-eyed innocence was unusual. And he seemd to be pretending not to know the name of the corner.
A poker player would be alerted I feel. Or is it a double bluff and wind-up?
I loved the expression on Flavio Briatore's face when he was asked if a five-times world champion and thorough sportsman like Michael Schumacher would be capable of doing such a thing. Looked as if he'd just eaten a bad oyster, shaking his head and muttering curses. Worth watching the whole thing just for that.

When I first watched it happening live my immediate thought was "Hes done that on purpose"
Watching the slow mo revealed the back stepping out a bit in the first part of the corner, leading to some understeer into the next part. Sometime during the attempt to get it round he seemed to become remarkably accidently hamfisted but somehow without hitting the wall.
Tactical reactions of a cat that bloke.

I feel he will have to be penalised for this, taking away his best time may not be enough. Drop 10 places on the grid? or start from the back (behind Massa...)?

It looked to me as though he had enough space to continue to drive forward without hitting the wall.
Surely any policeman who is used to interviewing suspects will be able to look at the press conference and tell us if MS was lying.
