Did you see Schumacher's cap toss this morning at Hockenheim? It was on Speed, and it must have traveled at least 100 feet in the air. It was after the podium ceremony and the champagne spraying.

Perthaps we have not seen them because the drivers wait until the caps are champagne soaked for more mass and distance due to the crowds being so far back.............
