Formula 1 Legend Michael Schumacher Allegedly Mows Down UK Pedestrian

Posted by Admin on July 31, 2008

Michael Schumacher Formula 1

Legend is remembered for his mad skills on the track, but the international racing sensation might only be mad when he allegedly might have ran over a pedestrian while attempting to overtake a pair of old ladies this weekend. Schumacher was apparently driving a Ducato van back from the Silverstone Classic in England when he knocked over Martin Kingham, who was locking up his garage. That’s right, Schumi loves the van. Accidents happen, but apparently the seven-time world F1 champ doesn’t like admitting he was wrong, at least according to Kingham.

‘I thought I recognised the driver but my head was spinning. He was screaming: ‘What the f***ing hell were you doing in the road.
‘He seemed cross, as if I was in the wrong. I called the police.’
[...]
‘He still didn’t apologise. He was arrogant. The way I landed was lucky. My leg was aching, and the next day a big bruise came up below my knee.’

It’s good to hear that everyone is ultimately okay, but we’re sort of wondering if Schumacher isn’t getting a bit cocky given these recent incidents
