| Michael admits he got it wrong | |
| The results of the Austrian
Grand Prix and the subsequent behaviour of the Ferrari drivers on the
winners podium still produces various reactions from both the media and the
public. The race was handed to Michael when his team-mate Barrichello was
ordered to slow down and let him pass.
Schumacher could not
understand why he was to receive such a negative reaction from the crowd.
Michael, in a report in Motoring News said: "I was surprised by the reaction
in Austria, because I thought it was clear what our strategy would be. Schumacher and Ferrari are to yet to appear before the FIA. This will take place on the 26th June. How the FIA will hand out any disciplinary action as a result the race results is something that is of interest to everyone. But it would appear that from Michael's comments that he is now trying to limit the damage that his behaviour in Austria will cause. |

But
now even Ferrari's Michael Schumacher has come out and said that his actions
on the podium were wrong and that they added to an already heated situation.
The fact that he and Rubens Barrichello were booed by the crowd was
something new for Michael.
