Funny joke in the F1 history. But Hakkinen didnt complain. GENTLEMAN

I'm no Schumi fan.. but Ferrari are very good at finding loopholes in the regulations! I remember watching this but it didn't really matter to me who won eventho I liked Mika a lot. Coz it was fun, tight, and both drivers were awesome. But if it was Schumi who ended up winning the 98 title... it would be very different.! Legends.

Michael Scumacher!!!! The best F1-driver ever:). It's always great to see him take victories on british land. It's a little bit of revenge for warcrimes made by the british against Deutschland in the past. Never forget Dresden (1945).

@Robert3785 Yea Monaco '06 was pretty sketchy at best but the '94 season and the supposed driver aids is something we will never know unfortunately and really the only way we will ever know is if Schumacher came out and said it. Regarding the Silverstone incident, whenever you have so much at stake in a major sport loopholes like this have been and will continue to be abused until changed, it's not a clean way to win but with such fierce competition comes exploitation.

[Robert3785]

@atomicR4GER You've got a point, but this isn't one team designing something that some other teams didn't, and I'm not saying that Schumacher is the only one to do it but this was a very deliberate exploitation of the rules that he seemed to get away with more than anyone else. 2 Egs - He stopped on the track at Monaco 06 to stop Alonso getting pole and allot of teams/drivers inducing his own Bennaton team mate Frentzen are saying he won his first championship with banned electronics on his car.

[atomicR4GER]

@Robert3785 well technically he didnt cheat then if there's a loop hole and he exploited it (whether he meant it or not). In formula 1 if there is a loophole ALL teams will abuse it not just Ferrari or not just Schumacher, think of the double diffusers in '09 for eg.

[ChrisButchie]

@Robert3785 That isn't the reason he won the race.

"I frankly do not know at the moment"... hahahaha...

@Colddeed

It worked only because whoever was in charge of handing out penaltys messed up by informing Ferrari way after the time limit of the incident, so the stop-and-go of Schumacher was basically invalid.

[TheCryptogamer]

ferrari trolling mclaren :D

one of the greatest moments in formula one history

[Colddeed]

I always found it confusing that he was allowed to take his stop/go penalty after he had crossed the line to win the race. Made no sense.

[rvdasilva]

Did he cross the finish line before or after stopping the car in the pit?

If he crossed the finish line before stopping then it is clear that he completed all the laps of the race without the STOP and go.

If the finish line is before the position to stop in the pit then what could be the difference of a drive-through or a STOP and go? If that is the case, the car didn't stop in the pit before the last lap was complete.
