New rules may put Schumi in hot water – Sir Stirling Moss
Sir Stirling Moss is not ready to lose even a single chance to criticise the poor driving shown by Michael Schumacher all through the 2010 season. While talking about the FIA's decision to take strict action against the ‘dirty
driving’ he said that this will further make the next season tougher for the 7-time World Champion.
While talking to the media earlier today he stated that after showing some very poor races all through the season, the chances of winning a World Championship seem very little for Schumacher. Moss further believes that the new
FIA rules of keeping a closer check on the drivers while they race on the track, has further "lessened" the probability of winning for the seven-time title winner.
Motor sport's governing body, the FIA, has come up with several changes in its regulations for the 2011 season. Before moving for a new season every year, some changes are made in the rules to keep the sport exciting and thrilling for the fans. Also, all
the lessons learned from one year help the management decide their action plan for the following. And this year, Michal Schumacher’ endeavour, at the Hungarian GP, gave a good lesson for everyone to learn. During the race Schumacher ran-into his old Ferrari-teammate,
Rubens Barrichello, pushing him so close to the wall that had it not been this experienced driver, the incident might have turned fatal.
Now, while recalling the incident, Moss said, "I see that they've done something about dirty driving and that'll probably lessen Schumacher's chances. It was disgraceful what he did at the Hungarian Grand Prix; Formula One is now one of the safest sports
there is, but if somebody had been coming out of the pits at that moment it could have been a disaster."
Moreover, Moss also expressed his views on the FIA's decision of lifting the ban on ‘team orders’. He thinks that it was wise to have the rule finished because it never did any good to the sport.
He explained saying, "It's stupid that they ever had to make a ruling on it. Team orders were always there and they always will be, and I think they always should be."
FIA is ready to enter the 2011 season with several similar changes in its rules and believes that the new set of regulations will further help the sport become exciting and thrilling.
