Schumi n This?

I cant believe this?? Michael schumacher stalling on the penultimate lap of the qualifying in Monacco...This is impossible...

First of all Rascasse corner is one of the slowest corners in the world. You approach that corner normally at about 80 to 90 miles/hour and if u r a really experienced super license holder you may even come-in at about 100 miles/hour.. You are already into II to III gear ready to break and come out of that corner to shift up for a super quick winding straight reaching close to 140 to 150 miles/hour.. And its impossible to stall an F1 car at 80-90 miles/hour at II or III gear...and thats exactly what michael did...A completely unethical move ...

There are 3 instances when a F1 car can stall...
1) At the starting grid
2)You hit a slippery track and lose traction
3)You break hard and try to shift your gears up...

These were not happening in this case and michael claims he slipped and to come out of a slip he engaged reverse...Bull Shi@.. Who will buy this crap? First you cannot come out of a slip using a reverse...And even if you could then after coming of that slip he will have to stop to engage back to a forward gear..that surely means he was planning to stop..

I cant take this as schumi doing this..he being a world champ 7 times..and unarguably one of the best after nigel mansel and senna..
