Schumacher is the greatest driver ever but no one is infallible. He made a mistake but he had the skill to recover the car without crashing - however, he was misplaced on the track right up against the wall. As he clearly explained, he did not want to then reverse into a blind corner with oncoming traffic and the car (which as all F1 cars is very sensitive) stalled. No cheating, just a mistake with a good recovery. Naturally, he looks a bit embarrassed after making such a mistake, especially when people start accusing him and he knows that it ended up hampering others. It's the same with the Damon Hill incident. He crashed but he tried to recover - and Damon crashed into him. Next time you crash into somebody from behind try telling the person's insurance company it's not your fault and see how you go. You crash from behind - your fault - end of story.

Did he, probably but we will never know. Whats next, if the leader of Monaco is closely followed in the race will he be disqualified for blocking? Here is the proposition - whodo you want to win. Then just set the rules to favor your favorite. If that isn't enough, help out along the way. F1 is and always has been a political forum led by people that create their own realities. Open your eyes - Spain and France are desparately trying to repair their failed international images. Just look at the GP of Spain recently. Clearly a nation of people ashamed of their cowardice in the face of terrorism. They now choose to live through Alonso. What if a terrorist threatens to attack again if Alonso doesn't pullout of F1? F1, what a joke!

Well the stewards have decided he is guilty and should start last. So if he is guilty he is also guilty of lying and bringing the sport into disrepute. Any other driver would be given a 2-3 race ban - just look back over the years. Putting him at the back of the grid is not much more than a slap on the wrist as he will almost certainly finish in the points. For me it's a bad decision by the stewards because it doesn't show Schumacher and Ferrari that the sport is brave enough to end their antics
