Schumacher caught speeding on the highway



F1 star Michael Schumacher was caught speeding off the track near his hometown of Kerpen, Germany. Driving his Audi Cabriolet, Schumacher was fined 75 euros ($107 USD) and received three points on his license.



Schumacher was pulled over in a 100kmh (62 mph) zone going 140kmh (87 mph) according to German media.



“I’m really sorry, it is out of character for me. Speeding is for the race tracks only,” he told German newspapers.





While that was really genuine of him to say - we feel if you’re Schumacher, you should’ve been caught going at least 187 mph.

If I was him I would be ashamed of only 40kmh over I would have asked for a redo and shot for 100 over.

 

He's the team leader now isn't he? Not as much time on the track as he used to I bet.

 

He is just amazing.



During the off season F1 teams were testing because traction control was banned so they were shaking down their cars. MS stepped in for Ferrari and did a session in the new F2008 and slaughtered everyone including Massa with his lap times.



I wish he would get back in a car again, his talent is sorely missed this season.

 

its like a chuck norris joke, but he let them catch him!

 

Lewis Hamilton is just ******* amazing too, he'll be the next if MS doenst jump back in...and if he does that would be one hell of a season.

 

its all about pr, he was probably going faster and they just didnt actually say really how fast
