Should Michael Schumacher ever need to take up a new career it appears that being a cabbie would suit him well. Schumacher, along with his wife and two children, were running late to catch a plane having picked up new puppy. Having hailed a taxi, Schumacher decided to swap seats with the taxi driver in order to make up some time and make it onto the flight.

“I found myself as a passenger, which was strange enough, but having Schumi behind the wheel was incredible,” taxi driver Tuncer Yilmaz said. “He drove at full throttle around the corners and overtook in some unbelievable places!”

It appears that the German s racing skills have not left him as he managed to catch his plane on time. And despite having driven the majority of the route himself, Schumacher still gave the cabbie a 100 Euro tip.
