Does a champ need to be PC? It is OK for rock stars and movie stars to be rude. Why cannot a F1 champ allow himself to be rude? It's is OK for Schumacher to be rude to journalists when he's in white racing overalls and calls himself The Stig, right?

Jeremy Clarkson can also be rude (sometimes he is even downright arrogant to people) and he is considered funny. I like Clarkson and find most of his and May's (Hamster, however, I would only be glad so see replaced by something more funny, like a brick or Sabine Schmidt so the show could get three excellent presenter.

I am not defending Schumacher's actions, merely questioning why everything must be som PC in our day and age?

He is the most successful driver in the sport. Beeing so makes many hate him, beeing German make some hate him as well. While English is not my native langueage, I believe you spell the explanation to that hatred jealousy.

I missed the race so I will not comment on the incident itself. I do, however believe that no man is perfect, and apparently the most succesful man in the sport has made a misstake that that luckily did not lead to any fatalites (something other reckless F1-drives have).
