Did anyone see it on Fox? As much as I hate to admit it, I thought they sounded better than in the first part, but of course, they didn't talk about "Amerika" this time. I was really hoping for another shot of Windsor looking more than slightly embarassed... Well, the breaking news, I guess, is that the little dog which caused havoc during the Brazilian GP, actually belonged to Michael Schumacher!! His name is "Fleas" or whatever the translation is in German. As far as world politics, global warming, and the strained US-Cuba relations since the Elian Gonzalez saga, the Schumacher bros typically went on long passionate monologues peppered with clever puns - OK, sorry - THAT is a joke.

Yep, I seemed to remember it was Corinna who wanted the mutt.
Were there any revealing F1 related questions.? Wouldn't mind knowing some of the questions asked and the replies given.

Not interested in the non-related F1 questions.

We wasted time on a thread with over 100 replies on the back of non-related F1 issues last time. Posted Image

Actually, some of the non-F1 issues (if any were in fact brought up) might be interesting. Don't think I've ever heard an F1 driver's take on the real world, except for Reutemann running for president.

We could be the first to know, for example, that Elian will be the honorary starter at the USGP and will get his very own Marlboro racing outfit for the trouble. His case will probably still be going in September....

It was all numbingly boring - they do sports for fun, ralf sometimes (but not enough) looks after Mike's kids and five dogs.

"Five, i only have four."
"Four?"asks a confuesed Ralf. "I thought you had five."
"No, I have four - if you bothered looking after them more, you'd know ..." (Rough dramatisation, that Posted Image)

Uhm - Mike says he is more willing to let his brother through than anyone else. Ralf seems to think his big bro is close to the end of his career - "Who is the fittest between the two of you?"
Mike nudges his brother. "He is."
Ralf - "Yeah, but you're old now."
Mike - "And getting better all the time,"with that Schumi look that suggests Ralf is gonna get beat at a later date.
Do they talk shop when they're away - yada yada, yes and no, depends, sometimes, not much, never see each other anyway, but they try not to ...
And that's all I recall to be honest - 10:00am saturday morning is not the best time to test my memory.
Oh yes, Flea was Corrina's idea and they showed the photo of him and his wife walking the flea - she looks like Madonna (pre 1986), he like a pimp and the dog, well, just uncomfortable. Apparently they paid a small fortune to have the dog flown around the world.

Like I said before, they sound a lot better in their native language. A stero-type pimp normally looks like a coloured man or latino
from all the films I've seen to date.
Fair-haired caucasians looking like a pimp....pretty dim! Posted Image

Bah, they didn't sound that bad for F1 drivers, IMO. I was not expecting miracles anyway. And now...the picture they flashed....well, again - and this is getting scarier by the minute - I've got to go with Magnum on that one; pimp is the word that came to mind. Actually, from what I've seen on the streets, pimpish is essentially the typical Ferrari owner dressing code anyway.
