Massa_number1 has a lot of promise if they can keep it on the circuit!
Schumacher not on form?
A friend of mine who works for ferrari said he was there when schumacher used to simulator at the maranello hq I cant believe what he told me!

he said schumi did a race at valencia on "HARD" mode and crashed at the first corner and had to pit but after a long race he was even lapped by them indian cars!! apparently he kept going "just one more go one more" and after a few goes the engineers tried to get him out but he got all violent and they had to inject him to restrain him.

what made it worse was apparently one of the guys kept making hamiltons car extra fast and overtaking him

The ultra-sophisticated multi-million pound F1 simulator based as Ferrari's HQ has a 'Hard' mode, which Schumacher chose.

A Ferrari engineer fiddled with the system to make the virtual Lewis Hamilton extremely fast.

Schumacher became agitated at his poor performance, but thankfully a Ferrari engineer was equipped with a syringe full of tranqulisers, which calmed him down.
If anyone has any more insider knowledge, please don't be shy...

Thank you Super Hans, it all makes sense to me now. It is clear that this account is 100% accurate and I'm guessing comes from stefano domenicali himself.

The real truth is that he ran out of 20p coins that go in the simulator so the Ferrari heavies kicked him out.

That's nowt.

One of my cousin's best-mates is a close personal friend of the bloke who runs the car wash where Rob Smedley's mother gets her car valeted and he swears blind that Schumacher performed well on the simulator but was injected after he was caught shaking the coin-drop machine.

Judging by the rest of the 'story', I think the simulator probably looks something like this one ....

It appears to be better than the one that McLaren have,which seems to involve Shrinking Lewis Hamilton so that he is able to fit inside the cockpit of a Scalextric car !
