I enjoy the pairing of Brundle and Coulthard but I wasn't surprised to hear DC's bias against Michael Schumacher rear its ugly square head again in Korea.
After the incident with Petrov, the comment was "He was innocent THAT time". Previous comments have included, "Ferrari are used to building strong cars becuase Michael Schumacher used to run into people in them when he was with them." Is it me or is this outrageous when the BBC are supposed to be providing fair coverage? I wonder if he is bitter because he was ever only a tenth of the driver Schumacher is or whether he has never got over the incident in Spa 98 when he nearly got punched.

'I don't think he'll get a penalty for that, he has no history of agressive starts'.............er, yes he does.
Rosberg was only given a fine for not going to the stewards quickly enough, rather than for causing a crash during practice because of his previously good behaviour. So if it was Schumi or Lewis it would be different? Each incident should be judged on its own merits.

(best two in F1, bar old schumi) say the meet in switzerland sometimes living near each other, schumi and dc have made many a VT for BBC and seemed friendly on it. Its usually fans trying to interweave their own agendas or thoughts into F1, like a coronation street episode.
