GoldenColt 1 Posted May 29, 2014 Share Posted May 29, 2014 You say it's arrogant, I say it's a spur of the moment-thing. It's cheating nevertheless of course, but arrogant? Did he go out and say he was proud about it? THAT would've been arrogant for me.What he did at Monaco that year was unsportsmanlike, but not arrogant. Doesn't make it better, I know. About Adelaide: Can you please tell me, why this was in any way unfair? He went off the track, rejoined it and as he was still ahead of Hill took the next corner first. Hill should've waited one more corner to comfortably take the lead. Btw, Hill seemed to think exactly the same in his first interview after the accident: Just type in "Adelaide '94: Hill's first interview after crashing with Schumacher."

buttonfan 5 Posted May 29, 2014 Share Posted May 29, 2014 So you say Hill is to blame for this accident? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
GoldenColt 1 Posted May 29, 2014 Share Posted May 29, 2014 Absolutely, 100%. Schumi was ahead, he had the right to take the next corner first. Hill should've waited, instead of going for such a risky move. He should've known better, especially with a championship being on the line and Schumi being the one defending his position.Go watch the interview I suggested to see Hill's first reaction (before he realized he could turn this into a "Schumi cheated"-thing).

buttonfan 5 Posted May 29, 2014 Share Posted May 29, 2014 Schumacher didn't just go off-track, he damaged the car so there was no possibility he could finish the race.Hill saw that and I don't think he knew Schumacher would turn in on him since his car was damaged.

GoldenColt 1 Posted May 29, 2014 Share Posted May 29, 2014 We will never know because Hill made him catapult into the tyre-barriers seconds after that. :PNah, seriously, if you want to bring up Michael's attempts to cheat, then I agree that Jerez 97 or Monaco 06 are good examples for that but then again, he wasn't the only WDC to do that. I personally feel like Senna's 1990-crash at Suzuka was 10 times worse than Jerez 97 for example.Anyway, let's not start a Schumacher vs Senna argument, I'm sick of these by now. :P Quote Link to post Share on other sites
buttonfan 5 Posted May 29, 2014 Share Posted May 29, 2014 So you don't see Schumacher turning in on Hill? Ok then, we agree to disagree. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
GoldenColt 1 Posted May 29, 2014 Share Posted May 29, 2014 I see Schumacher having the right to take the corner first as he's ahead when he starts turning. Therefore, Hill's fault. Let's agree to disagree. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
buttonfan 5 Posted May 29, 2014 Share Posted May 29, 2014 Ι just don't see why Schumacher didn't let Hill pass since he wasn't going to finish the race either way. Well, whatever. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
VetteIfan 0 Posted May 29, 2014 Share Posted May 29, 2014 GoldenColt said: Absolutely, 100%. :)) Being ahead when you turn in to a corner doesn't give a driver an unrivalled access to swing the car towards the apex. Especially in this case. Schumacher had just been off so he knew Hill would be right on the back of him and would have much more momentum. And then, let's just say as diplomatically as possible, when Hill went for the inside Schumacher made very little attempt to ensure they both got round the corner without damage.

JensonBottom 1 Posted May 29, 2014 Share Posted May 29, 2014 That looks more than enough alongside. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
alonsofan46 0 Posted May 29, 2014 Share Posted May 29, 2014 To me that looks as though Schumacher had started to turn in before Hill was even alongside him. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
sjsharp2010 227 Posted May 30, 2014 Share Posted May 30, 2014 have to agree with Mike he did what he did to make sure Hill went into retirement too because he knew that was the only way he'd take the title. Schumacher knew his car was damaged and couldn't continue so in my opinion that counts but it's not just his actions on track though as I felt he had a bit of arrogance in his interviews as well in general just his overall demeanour seemed arrogant to me. I'm not saying he didn't deserve the success he got because for the most part I think he did but In general he didn't strike me as particularly friendly and a win at all costs kind of guy during those years Quote Link to post Share on other sites
KuB 0 Posted June 15, 2014 Share Posted June 15, 2014 I´sorry but can anybody give me an example where vettel shows that he´s arrogantI think he´s ambitious not more. Moreover you need a little bit arrogance to survive in F1. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
