WTF is right....
WTF was MS thinking, he lets the Safety car get nicely in front of him...because he knows its coming in at the end of that lap.....backing up the cars to give himself the freedom to chose is location and position on the track to do the restart, rember its when the safety car pulss into the pits regardless of where the Leader is....ideally he would be a the exit of the swimming pool complex right a the start of the short straight to Rascase at the time...allowing him the full length of the straight befroe other reacted.
He then floors it on the entry to the tunnel and then applies the brakes hard enough to get the offside wheel locked up, yes the one doing all the work.
Its damn dark in that tunnel, believe me, I have driven thro it often enough and quickly enough to know that its damn difficult to see, the cars I have taken thro are all road car based and so have brake lights...
JP didn't fully engage his brain at that time, but thought, hummm maybe if I get jump on MS I can unlap myself.....
Both should have know better, but ego in both cockpits over rode common sense.
As for Alsono, well RS was too busy getting his act togther to pay attention to the fact he was being overtaken. Another fine Rs moment.
Its time for both Schumachers to take stock of what they are actually doing in F1. RS should perhaps go elsewhere and MS should appreciate that the better his rivals are the more impressive his success becomes.
As Fangio once remarked to Senna, being a great racing driver is nowhere near as diffcult as being a great Champion. Senna spent the rest of his short life trying to become more than a great racing driver.
MS has not yet started on that path.
