I thought Jonathan Noble and Pablo Elizalde were impertinent and rude with their questions at the Merc livery launch in January and felt that this would be the end. Guess what? A sick asshole (David Croft) dished it up again today at a Mercedes press conference.

“I guess it didn’t, but it doesn’t change as well if we get back into it, because we’re now in 2010.”
Pressed on the matter, he said: “I had great fun in the race, I have to say. Coming from last, and going through the field, I think I finished fifth. That was good fun.”
Reminded that Saturday had been a low point of his career, he blamed the media, “You made it – some of you guys. I mean, let’s look forward and not backwards.”
When Croft asked whether Michael would so the same thing again to guarantee pole, he said: “You’re boring…”
Finally he was asked if there was any reason why he was not able to say sorry for what happened. “I mean you can keep trying absolutely, but we’re not talking about 2006 anymore. There’s enough said I don’t feel that I need to go any deeper into it…”
How sick is this? Croft had plenty of opportunity to ask questions for the five months that Schumacher continued his carreer in 2006. There is nothing the public has not been informed about the Rascasse incident in every facet. This has no purpose but to embarrass Mercedes GP and Schumacher and cater to the lowly sentiments of bigots and haters. Nobody needs sh!t thrown at the fan that is four years old. I hope Croft will come to Hockenheim and walk the camp ground there by night. Perhaps he can have an in depth interview how the fans feel about such a wanker as he is. It would do him a lot of good for sure.
I think the media has every right to question MS about, especially since he refuses to acknowledge it and refuses to apologize. It has nothing to do with MERCGP, except for the fact that they hired him, so they should not feel embarassed.
Maybe after years to think about it MS could feel differently(doesnt seem like it) and would take advanatge of the oppurtunity to apologize to the fans...but that seems unlikely. HE still rather duck the questions.
Maybe the Media are looking for that 1 moment MS realizes he can not escape it and it would be best to man up... Kinda like Nixon in those interviews after he left office.
I really dont see why it bothers you so much, maybe if they were bring up the Hill& JV collisions, yes that is surely old news, but Rascasses is still alot of people's last most vivid memory of MS... and I think he should be asked about it until he finally apologizes, just as Alonso should be asked about Singapore 08 until he at least admits it was not a valid win.
