From PlanetF1:



Michael Schumacher has finally apologised to Rubens Barrichello 25 days after nearly running the Brazilian into a concrete wall in the Hungarian GP.

Barrichello had come within millimetres of being forced into the pit wall after Mercedes star Schumacher moved to his right in attempting to block the Williams driver from overtaking.

Schumacher defended his actions immediately after the race, although the stewards did not see his point of view as he was handed a 10-place grid penalty for Sunday's Belgian Grand Prix.

The outcry that followed led to Schumacher expressing his regret the following day, albeit in a half-hearted way via a message on his personal website.

Schumacher simply said 'sorry' on the basis that it was not his intention to endanger Barrichello's life with his manoeuvre.

But with this weekend's race looming, Schumacher has now contacted his former Ferrari team-mate to offer a proper apology.

Barrichello, who this weekend celebrates his landmark 300th grand prix, said: "I received a message from him today, an SMS.

"Somebody said to him that I was under the impression he had pushed me onto the wall, and he said it wasn't the case and he apologised for that.

"I just said 'thank you, no problem'. I accepted it, wished him a good weekend, life goes on."

 

Bullshit.
Schumi has always been a **** (insert favourite rudest 4 letter insult adjective) who likes to shut the door on his opponents when he's too slow. No class, that's why I never liked him.

 

the first time Schumi officially excused for something like that in the public

he has always been a fighter...that`s what contributed to his success
