Bahrain Grand Prix 2012, Sakhir - Race 4/20

Apparently Schumacher's Mercedes had a technical issue preventing a second run.

Welcome to Racing Drivers Excuses 101.
Next lecture will be given by Jenson Button on balance.

Eh?

Are you telling me that MSc would be just a pilot, while wrong decisions are being made around him?
No way!

Mercedes will make their recommendations, but if MSc wants to over-rule those recommendations, he will do so. MSc is not some rookie who will follow orders to the letter (even if he knows that the decision is wrong).

MSc is just as much to blame as Merc.
 
I love the way people keep defending Schumi. He cocked up with a scruffy lap, and every race this season or last season he's cocked something up. He needs to retire, once and for all. He will never, ever, ever be up to scratch again and never be able to compete against the younger drivers.

Who defended him? he made a small mistake and his DRS was not working.

What are you on.

There would be people at Mercedes analysing the qualifying session. they will be in contact with Michael's race engineer. If they say he should go out again, he would go out again. He's hardly going to say, no thanks guys.

Anyway, as we've now seen, Merc had a technical issue, so it makes no odds. Had the Caterham not improved by 1.4 seconds, Michael might not have been able to run again anyway.

To be fair I think that is more of a Merc screw up than just a Schumacher one. McLaren were also playing it a bit close.
