Schumacher finally admits he was rubbish
January 2013
In a candid interview, Michael Schumacher admitted the reason he struggled on his ill-fated return to Formula 1 was because the current crop of drivers are actually talented. At his peak, Schumacher only had to contend with mediocre competition in the form of Damon Hill, David Coulthard and Juan Montoya with the rest of his main rivals being made up of imbeciles like Jacques Villeneuve. The only driver who Schumacher admitted to being frightened of was Mika Hakkinen but only because the Finnish driver used to use black magic and once held his family hostage.
The seven times world champion also attributed his past success to the cars he drove and went on to reveal that Ferrari actually cheated on a regular basis and had ties to the Mafia who used to make the FIA offers they couldn’t refuse so they would favour the Italian marqué - something that no doubt comes as a complete shock to the motor racing community.
Asked whether he regretted making a comeback and consequently making a complete twat of himself, Schumacher said his only regret was being beaten by a Britney Spears look-alike but thinks that Mercedes’ 2013 line-up of Miss Spears and 2Pac will be one to watch.
