I pissed myself laughin when michael stood on those tyres at the side of the track and seeing villeneuve breeze past! and then laughed even harder when schumacher was disqualified from the championship!!! i remember villeneuve in the press conference saying that michaels hands must have slipped off the wheel!! good old jacques!!!! and he let hakkinen win his first gp.
Schumacher es a la formula 1 lo que Italia al futbol, muchos titulos conseguidos por lo civil o por lo criminal. Que Senna este mas en los corazones de la gente habiendo conseguido menos que el pero de una manera no tan degenerada lo dice todo.

I am a BIG Schumacher fan but this was very upseting. I really don't know why he would do this, he should have let Villeneuve through and let the rest of the race play out. Anything could have happened from that point on. Scumacher would have easily won the championship if he was not having troubles with his car, but I agree that this was a poor choice.
Pull out some old vids of Ayrton Senna. You'll see him squeezing guys up against the wall after race starts. You might even catch a glimpse of him crashing into Prost to deprive him of a title. Champions have to have a nasty or mean streak, unless you're Mika Hakkinen, then you win because you are smart and cool. So stop crying about Michael. Hill eventually won a title and Villeneuve won this one.

every one who commented on this video except rathermmshort are all plebs!!! villnerve is a jealous looser and a shamefull champ, well he isnt a champ to me,his car is a true case of better then every body elses unlike the crap ppl say about schumi on tht season. schumi is the best
Unlike Adelaide '94, where Hill went left and right behind Schu and then dived in on the inside, way too late and caused the crash, here Schu exactly knows where Villeneuve is and hit him in purpose. Incredibly stupid move...
Schum-barf oversteared and went on the grass and in too the wall (probably damaged his car big time) and went like an maniac from the grass way back too the other side of the track blocking hill. Hill simply chose the right too pass him.
When schum-barf turnd in the corner hill was 3/4 car lenght a side of him, a normal driver wouldnt smash right in too him. But hes a BIG CHEATER so that was his motivation 4 that action.
I remember this...he did that on purpose. He was leading in points in this final race and he had a problem with his car so he tried to take out Villeneuve to win the championship. Trust me...this was on purpose!
Do we expect F1 to be a gentleman's game? I remember Fangio saying that there was cheating in his era, but not so many cameras. The only crime is getting caught.
shumacher the cheat, i laughed sooo hard when villenurve won the championship... and if anyone thinks this was a racing accident your looking at it through scarlet tinted sunglasses!

Tbh, I dont beleive Schumacher did this on purpose. In my opinion, Schumacher was just forgot to look in his mirrors. He only realises at the last second as he turns into the corner that Villeneuve is there. To avoid a collision, Michael widens his line. However, Jacques Villeneuve braked very late, which meant his cornering speed was to high and he couldn't turn into the apex, instead taking a wide line without wanting to do so. Nobody was at fault here. It was a typical racing incident!
1994 was a normal accident and both of them retired hill just showed a childish move there he better waited for the next corner to pass schumi.You say for spa crash in 1998 ???
@Ferraristaaa no when schumacher went into the corner he was a damaged car and he saw hill was going to pass him and win the title so he took him out end of
no if you botherd to read my comment i said his car was damaged in 1994 when he took damon hill out to win one of his 7 championships thats not to do with villeneuve
it was a big mistake by villeneuve and it went badly wrong. if he didnt hit schumacher then he would have ended up in the gravel. he was too far behind and entered the corner too fast. the fact that michael was over to the left suggests that he wasnt expecting a move in that corner and villeneuve got lucky that it all went this way. i suppose it doesnt matter because he disappeared off the face of the earth since the following day whereas michael went on to achieve great thing and deservedly so
I was 9 and I remember my father having a huge fight with my uncle: My father has been hating Schumacher since I remember him and my uncle is the typical mainstream guy so it was quite funny.
Second title Schumacher shouldn't have won, not to go into the Benetton years.
He shouldn't have tried to take the Apex, when another car has it.
Villeneuve completed a great overtaking move, and was more than half a car infront by the apex - therefor it was villeneuve's corner, and Schumacher should have left him ATLEAST a car's length on the inside.
F1 cameras record history, and many decades ago, alot of driver bad baviour or bad moves, wrong moves were not seen by the public, if your in the final race, and alot is at stake, every action is waiting to possibly be immortalised and rewind back for discussion. This was a mistake by Schumi and admitted so, and wished he could change it, but that's life, the majority of his wins and successes were not mistakes, no one's perfect.
Well, everyone would want the world championship, maybe schumi is a bit more consistent, or wants to win it badly. That's why he did such stuff. But yeah, it was perhaps the heat of the moment.
From a scaled out view JV went up the inside on the GRASS because there was no room to go through... Schumacher turned into him? Yes, because it's a corner. Either he was to try and take the corner or yield. The fact JV jumped through onto the apex using the grass is just foolish and was obviously gonna end up like this. He didn't need to make such a desperate lunge, he could have waited for a safer overtake. Had MS not hit him, JV would almost certainly have gone straight on, or atleast wide.
He would have gone wide it's called a block overtake, the replay shows JV clipping the apex not riding over the grass, it also shows a double movement of the steering wheel by MS, a desperate man in a slower car. The right man won.
The double move, yeh that's pretty clear... but then again they always suffer from tunnel vision and the wing mirrors are near useless so it's hard to truley believe. If nothing else this was clearly not premeditated as Schumi could so easily have done a more effective take-out at the next corner. Blind panic I guess. I know he basically admitted it, I just don't see why the fuss is made. Was it a dirty tactic? Not really, it was just the heat of the moment.
The only thing that makes it look bad is the previous Damon Hill affair, without that I would have given him the benefit of the doubt. Premeditated...no intentional.....yes. MS wants to win at all costs. Either way he's one of the greatest drivers of all time.
Absolutely right. Another video of this shows it from JV's perspective, and it looks ambitious from the Williams point of view, and a bit rash to be honest. I just think this is blown out of all proportion. Hill in 94 was different, clearly intentional... go back to Senna/Prost and you could argue that it wasn't against the rules back then, but something obviously changed. Of course the proof of his skill was that he was in a position to win by neither driver scoring.
It was a lunge that would have worked if shumi had used the mirrors and didn't crank the wheel right. When you win one championship by taking out your rival once is enough. The f.i.a for once did a decent punishment for dirty schumi. I still respect shumi tho a ltiny bit. you either love him or hate him.
Akro, pretty please, you would have put a monkey in that ferrari, it would have killed the field. C'mon, get serious. Schumacher is'nt any better than Villeneuve (of course not) or Hakkinen or Alonso for that matter, except he had Todt and some very good friends « I » would NOT recommend my children...
All u think that schumacher didn't took the 7 champ because of his driving skill.think about it,can alonso take that much championships(with the same car),can villenueve take 7 championships?or hill?or someone else?

the french canadian moved to a team that dominated from 92-97. for god sake they made damon hill a world champ. williams should have won in 94 & 95 too if schumacher hadnt been in the bennetton.jaques move from williams to BAR was for money reasons. when he drove in the renault team in 2004 every1 saw how good he was. Prove me wrong.i hope hes a better singer then a driver.
gerry,you are an idiot,mabe villeneuve have best car in cart series 94-95 season...he win this seasons in america,on the first gp in f1 he was in pole,how you can talking like that...only a good pilot became champion....
pity he didnt hit dat useless canadian prick properly. only he had the best car on the grid(williams) he never would have been world champ, what did he ever do after 97. need i say more!!!
Also, Rob, for you to state that Senna 'had the decency ' to admit taking someone else out, was a disgrace in itself. Plus the fact that he did it at a corner that was super fast, doesnt take any gloss off him admitting it.
Rob130290 - Benetton in 1994 were always going to be doomed, because they had a great car that was on Williams backs and some people couldnt understand how they could be that good with a cosworth powered car. In reality, McLaren and Ferrari also used the same electronic circuitry as in 1993, like Bennetton. This was legal. Switching it on wasn't. This was all told by Pat Symmonds. Ferrari, McLaren used TC at various stages back in 1994, but they got away scott free, they didnt have a superb car.
michael its the best in the better car in the better possible conditions, when he toke the lead was invencible. when he have to fight hand by hand is just one more driver. senna hand by hand was a lot better ,but michael is more efective on the lead whit a superior car
Schumacher was a winner, and simply wanted to win every race he could.
And for him to have kept on top for such a long period of time is a testament to easily one of the best drivers ever in F1.
And for Ferrari to call upon him this year ahead of Badoer and Gene just goes to show his hunger for the sport.
Of course I don't agree with everything he's done in the past, but that goes for most drivers, mainly Senna, who repeatedly forced other cars to retire
Senna repeatedly forced other cars to retire? What the fuck are you on about. Senna did that once to the best of my knowledge, Prost turned in on him in 1989. And, at least Senna had the decency after he won the title to openly admit that 1990 was intentional. Schumi never admitted to 1994 even though the entire world knows what he did.
look im a mclaren fan and a ferrari hater, but even i admit, there are only three 'cheating' incidents with schumacher in what a 11 year career? you nonces forget he won about 5 titles without doing anything wrong, he was the best driver there was, and i admire how he tried to do whatever it takes to win, thats what its about, how much do you want the title, and he wanted them so bad he did whatever it took. a legend world over for good reason.
Yeah! Its just amazing to see that he still got the hunger to win WDC. He isn't satisfied with one WDC like villeneuve, he simply wants more & more. Everyone sees his cheats, but they were actually the hunger to win the WDC, and he went to any extent to achieve his goals. Remember Ralf fuming over him for Monaco 2005. He is actually just one of those drivers who pushes himself hard everytime and then nothing else doesn't really matters for him. HE IS A LEGEND and will be FOREVER.
@FRAFPDD Really ?? You admire the whatever it takes attitude ? Man that's low ... In my opinion, i appreciate whatever it takes BUT within the rules !
@FRAFPDD. Disagree .. he won 5 driver titles because he had the best car 5 years in a row, and had a teammate that was ordered not to challenge him. Schumacher still is a disgrace. His wining at all costs policy is the reason he is the most disgraced champ F1 has ever had. I hope he gets his ass kicked into retirement again.
@FRAFPDD Are you mental? 'Only 3 incidents' as you put it. 2 of which were title defining crashes, and the other I presume you mean is Monaco 06. He also had incidents with HHF and dangerous driving, and the illegal Benetton he drove in 1994. So yeah, get your facts straight
@FRAFPDD best driver there was??? you mean possibly of this last decade but i would never say he's the best driver there was.. schumacher woudlnt say he is the best there was.. Senna and G. Villeneuve are the best drivers ive seen...
funny thing is, if Michael lost the championship to Damon in 94' it wouldve been a travesty. Michael got a 2 race ban and a victory taken away from him and yet still was ahead in the title race. You can slag me off all you want, but Michael got teated like shit that year by the FIA.
He didn't get treated like shit. He ignored a Black flag, and Benetton were cheats anyway. That aside, I will admit that his 2 race ban was harsh, it was only done to spice up the championship. Which it did.
who cares?Hakkinen win 2 championships but was too fucking better than villeneuve,Alonso win 2 championships but he is way better than villeneuve.Alonso maybe is an asshole but we can't change it.he is better.

fuck you bastards!fuck villneuve.schumacher is the best.he maybe cheated there but he took 7 championships fair..and he was goiing for 8 if he hadn't the accident in 2006 season at suzuka. villeneuve took only 2.fuck villeneuve
6....he only took 6 fairly, and even thats debateable. the he deffo didn't get fair was 94, remember him driving over Damn Hill, or did that conveniantly slip the memory of a schumi fanboy
both made a mistake in adelaide.. ...schumacher was DQed from 3 races and still was ahead in adelaide. that was his championship. damon won truely deserved in 1996
It's always fun to see this video, considering that MS got excluded from the drivers championship. MS tried to close the "door", and JV with the car slid outwards with understeer and a locked inside wheel. Great job by the FIA as usual.
Great job by FIA as usual?!? I'm neutral, i really like when i see young drivers leading the line so that's why i'm neutral...But my point is: How can u say that the f****g faschistick bustard a.k.a. Max Mosley is doing his job great? Look what has he done to F1 nowadays... I believe in few years F1 cars will be running on the same level as the F3 cars, but F1 will have better brakes, so they would be able to brake later, and so make better times....Please, leave the good words for FIA
Schumacher must of been thinking all weekend "I'm in an inferior car, I deserve this title, I'm better than villeneuve" In his mind he was perfectly justified especially in the heat of that moment to stop Villeneuve to win. I think he always went through a process of justifying to himself that he was entitled to win because he was better and to hell with anyone else. Under pressure, this dominated his actions.
jv no skills,you are kiddin' right?MS was lucky to be at ferrari at the right time.Don't get me wrong,he was a great driver,but not as great as his 7 titles would you make think.Remember his colletions with jv,with damon hill,Barrichello had to slow down to let the 'almighty' win?I'm sorry,but a great champion is only he who wins the fair way.I like racers like jv,mansell,senna..so much more,they drove with their hart and not like a computer like schumi did.
Wake up!This is F1,not a child playground.And this is a battle for world champion title.Schumi defended his line and even he crashed on Jack's car, that;s the right thing to do! And as for Senna,don't forget that he would do the same as Schumi,because these 2 drivers just can't stand losing!!! That's why they are the best 2 drivers in F1 of all times.He did well on Hill on 94.Know that.Schumi and Senna will do everything for the winning.Everyone who knows a little bit of F1history knows that.
I don't get how the F1 board decide when a driver is disqualified for this manouver. Why was Schumacher disqualified when Prost done the same thing to Senna at Suzuka '89 and Senna to Prost at Suzuka '90 and they both got let off?!
Schumacher may be a great driver, but his behaviour is often low below low! I admire his skills when used poperly but too often his reactions are those of a very small man.
I'll give you 2006 Monaco qualifying, even though it wasn't proved but:
Silverstone 2003 (put Alonso on the grass at 190mph)
Imola 2004 (put Montoya off the road when he knew he was there) are both opinion based, and the others you have just named tracks with dates so no evidence there. Also if you had read what I said, I said 'personally' using an illegal fuel rig is a team choice not the driver. I'll also give you this one jerez 1997 but PLENTY more where that came from, ok tell me PLENTY more
LOL 1994 was a race incident and 2007 race incident, and 2003 and 2004 he was only keeping his racing line =) the rules are on his side! in 2001 did the same to schumi! and last in monaco only schuni knows whats truth is! there was no evidence that schumi did park the car.... at first he went free of charge....then Briatore went to the "spanish" judge and tell hem to punish him and he did it så "spanish" Alonso get a better starting number =) thats the truth! Schumacher is the only king of F1
Hmmm, I don't want to defend Michael he made a stupid move but you have to consider that Villeneuve entered the corner waaaaay to fast and only kept the car on the asphalt due to Michaels punch which pushed him to the inside.
If Michael wouldn't have moved onto him it would have been a very controversial maneuvre from Villeneuve who would most propably have pushed Michael into the gravel.
U would have thought that, with the practise of ramming into Damon Hill he would improve the next time, doesn't like it when some1 else does it to him tho, he once accused Coulthard of trying to 'kill him' when trying to pass him
Damon had his wheels over the inside of the rumble strips, he had dived too late into a gap that was never there. Jerez was however a little more clear-cut :P
He turns, sees Villeneuve and straightens the wheel 0:07 allowing him room.......thinks oops and turns back across into him 0:08 and causes an avoidable collision.
I'm not defending Michael, it was definetly his fault. But ask Sharkfinf1 said, Villeneuves move was very bold and Schumacher wouldn't have expected that much understeer from Villeneuves car, not matter how intentional the collision was.
If you're doubting this, watch the video again, and keep an eye on the apex of the corner. Villeneuve goes straight on.
But Schumacher is still to blame for the collision. He should've let Villeneuve go past, get a better exit and repass at the next corner.
First, it was a very bold overtaking move by Villeneuve, but it was definately Schumacher at fault. Vileneuve had got in front and yet Schu continued to turn in instead of straightening up.
Villeneuve hits Schumacher clearly, in fact, if Schumacher had applied his brakes a few meters before, Villeneuve would be out of the track. Jacques brakes too late, he´s overpass.
Don't be a knob. How long have you been following F1? Villeneuve had been catching Schitmacher and overtook him fairly on the inside line. Realising he was done for, Schitmacher turned in fearing he was about to lose his title. He applied the same tactics as he did against Hill in '94 - deliberately taking him out. The guy was a good driver, but dirty and dangerous.
No tienes ni idea y además faltas al respeto, sigo la fórmula uno desde hace más de 20 años y sé de lo que hablo. Estar en el interior no le da derecho a entrar tan pasado a Villeneuve y echar a SCHUMACHER, que se escribe así
Discrepo en cierto sentido. Esta maniobra va mas alla del solo hecho de que Schumacher y Villeneuve chocaran. Yo soy fanatico de Michael, y se que esta maniobra fue deliberada, él buscaba el toque y repetir lo de Australia '94. Pero es que él es asi, un piloto que no piensa en perder facil, y en ese instante era todo o nada, te tiras o no al toque y rogar para que salgas beneficiado. No fue correcta esta maniobra, pero estamos hablando de un campeonato mundial, no de una carrera mas.
Not entirely. Hill dived up the inside at Adelaide, he had his wheels over the rumble strips and ran Schumacher off the road. Hill also took Schumacer out in 1995 a couple of times, but Schumi bashers aren't one for objectivity. Also, Schumacher readily admits 1997 was a mistake and he did it on purpose, but he doesn't say the same about 1994.
To people dissing JV's F1 achievements, esp mindless Schumi fans, have u conveniently forgotten that JV didnt have a slave like Irvine acting like a mobile chicane on his slavemasters' commands (Todt, Schumi, Brawn) to block and irritate the life out of JV on the track?
If JV had dared asked Frank Williams to tell Frentzen to act as a mobile chicane, he would have been booted out of Williams on the spot.
But then, this argument of coz will ring no bells wif the blockhead Schumi fans anyway...
....Except Villenueve never won another race, became a massive whinger on a Mansellesque scale and release a very bad acoustic albums. Michael's crimes against culture were that awful shampoo commercial and that's it. Seven world titles > one world title. Always.
The funny thing is, Villeneuve would probably miss the apex and get re-passed by Schumacher in the inside of the corner. So this, wasn't necessary. Schumi admitted that he made a mistake, doesn't change the fact that he's my favorite driver and that he was one of the greatest drivers ever on the planet, if not, THE best driver ever.
Good answer CaboArmorKing, I may not agree. I think some of the unsung rally drivers may be better, as well as Senna. But there's no denying how great Schumacher is.
Well, yes, rally drivers are often forgotten, also by me. From USA, there is a guy called Travis Pastrana who can drive in everything: rally cars, formula cars, dirt bikes, bmx, an all-rounder, but few really knows his talent.
About Schumacher: nobody have to agree that i think he's the best, but everybody should agree that he was one of the most talented drivers ever, but this is easily forgotten, because of the negative actions made by him sometimes.

Schumacher only tried to drive the corner.
Villeneuve was too late on the brakes.
If Schumacher gave him room, he didn't hit him but it was the fight for the championchip.

Look how Schumacher line through the corner, then you will see it.

it was a big mistake by villeneuve and it went badly wrong. if he didnt hit schumacher then he would have ended up in the gravel. he was too far behind and entered the corner too fast. the fact that michael was over to the left suggests that he wasnt expecting a move in that corner and villeneuve got lucky that it all went this way. i suppose it doesnt matter because he disappeared off the face of the earth since the following day whereas michael went on to achieve great thing and deservedly so

Mummins 2 years ago
He shouldn't have tried to take the Apex, when another car has it.
Villeneuve completed a great overtaking move, and was more than half a car infront by the apex - therefor it was villeneuve's corner, and Schumacher should have left him ATLEAST a car's length on the inside.
Playtechy 2 years ago
F1 cameras record history, and many decades ago, alot of driver bad baviour or bad moves, wrong moves were not seen by the public, if your in the final race, and alot is at stake, every action is waiting to possibly be immortalised and rewind back for discussion. This was a mistake by Schumi and admitted so, and wished he could change it, but that's life, the majority of his wins and successes were not mistakes, no one's perfect.
SeanValen7 2 years ago 4
Well, everyone would want the world championship, maybe schumi is a bit more consistent, or wants to win it badly. That's why he did such stuff. But yeah, it was perhaps the heat of the moment.

vjs94hornets 2 years ago
From a scaled out view JV went up the inside on the GRASS because there was no room to go through... Schumacher turned into him? Yes, because it's a corner. Either he was to try and take the corner or yield. The fact JV jumped through onto the apex using the grass is just foolish and was obviously gonna end up like this. He didn't need to make such a desperate lunge, he could have waited for a safer overtake. Had MS not hit him, JV would almost certainly have gone straight on, or atleast wide.
NeoCon2K7 2 years ago
He would have gone wide it's called a block overtake, the replay shows JV clipping the apex not riding over the grass, it also shows a double movement of the steering wheel by MS, a desperate man in a slower car. The right man won.
chaptainchaos 2 years ago 3
The double move, yeh that's pretty clear... but then again they always suffer from tunnel vision and the wing mirrors are near useless so it's hard to truley believe. If nothing else this was clearly not premeditated as Schumi could so easily have done a more effective take-out at the next corner. Blind panic I guess. I know he basically admitted it, I just don't see why the fuss is made. Was it a dirty tactic? Not really, it was just the heat of the moment.
NeoCon2K7 2 years ago
The only thing that makes it look bad is the previous Damon Hill affair, without that I would have given him the benefit of the doubt. Premeditated...no intentional.....yes. MS wants to win at all costs. Either way he's one of the greatest drivers of all time.
chaptainchaos 2 years ago 2
Absolutely right. Another video of this shows it from JV's perspective, and it looks ambitious from the Williams point of view, and a bit rash to be honest. I just think this is blown out of all proportion. Hill in 94 was different, clearly intentional... go back to Senna/Prost and you could argue that it wasn't against the rules back then, but something obviously changed. Of course the proof of his skill was that he was in a position to win by neither driver scoring.

It was a lunge that would have worked if shumi had used the mirrors and didn't crank the wheel right. When you win one championship by taking out your rival once is enough.

Rob130290 - Benetton in 1994 were always going to be doomed, because they had a great car that was on Williams backs and some people couldnt understand how they could be that good with a cosworth powered car. In reality, McLaren and Ferrari also used the same electronic circuitry as in 1993, like Bennetton. This was legal. Switching it on wasn't. This was all told by Pat Symmonds. Ferrari, McLaren used TC at various stages back in 1994, but they got away scott free, they didnt have a superb car.

The facts are plain to see.
Schumacher was a winner, and simply wanted to win every race he could.
And for him to have kept on top for such a long period of time is a testament to easily one of the best drivers ever in F1.
And for Ferrari to call upon him this year ahead of Badoer and Gene just goes to show his hunger for the sport.
Of course I don't agree with everything he's done in the past, but that goes for most drivers, mainly Senna, who repeatedly forced other cars to retire

Senna repeatedly forced other cars to retire? What the fuck are you on about. Senna did that once to the best of my knowledge, Prost turned in on him in 1989. And, at least Senna had the decency after he won the title to openly admit that 1990 was intentional. Schumi never admitted to 1994 even though the entire world knows what he did.

Schumacher must of been thinking all weekend "I'm in an inferior car, I deserve this title, I'm better than villeneuve" In his mind he was perfectly justified especially in the heat of that moment to stop Villeneuve to win. I think he always went through a process of justifying to himself that he was entitled to win because he was better and to hell with anyone else. Under pressure, this dominated his actions.

If Michael wouldn't have moved onto him it would have been a very controversial maneuvre from Villeneuve who would most propably have pushed Michael into the gravel.

I'm not defending Michael, it was definetly his fault. But ask Sharkfinf1 said, Villeneuves move was very bold and Schumacher wouldn't have expected that much understeer from Villeneuves car, not matter how intentional the collision was.
If you're doubting this, watch the video again, and keep an eye on the apex of the corner. Villeneuve goes straight on.
But Schumacher is still to blame for the collision. He should've let Villeneuve go past, get a better exit and repass at the next corner.

Don't be a knob. How long have you been following F1? Villeneuve had been catching Schitmacher and overtook him fairly on the inside line.

No fue correcta esta maniobra, pero estamos hablando de un campeonato mundial, no de una carrera mas.

Not entirely. Hill dived up the inside at Adelaide, he had his wheels over the rumble strips and ran Schumacher off the road. Hill also took Schumacer out in 1995 a couple of times, but Schumi bashers aren't one for objectivity. Also, Schumacher readily admits 1997 was a mistake and he did it on purpose, but he doesn't say the same about 1994.
