Michael Schumacher gives us another insightful glimpse into events inside the Ferrari camp after their 1-2 triumph at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway.

Hello, my suitably invigorated Ferrari chums

[Max Mosley 2]

Good stuff Mr Monty. I think he actually did say in the press conference that he found the race very exciting, which made me laugh! Schumacher was back to his very best there!

no he did not where did you pick that up from? did you even bother to read transcripts of the post match conference?

[Max Mosley 2]

"Q: Michael, obviously a difficult day, none of the Michelin runners competing after that first lap, after the formation lap, but nonetheless, you were out there, you were racing and it looked pretty close between you and Rubens as you came out from your second pit stop.

Michael SCHUMACHER: Yeah, very close, I would say. It was quite a race the two of us had going. It was only the two of us and the team said ‘let’s go and have fun’ and that’s what we had between the two of us. Obviously it was a bit of a strange Grand Prix, not the right way to win my first one this year but one of these out of 84 is not a big disaster. "

I did not read the transcripts because I saw the post race conference live. He did not use the word exciting so I remembered that incorrectly but I think it sums up his answer well nevertheless. He said in fact it was "very close", "quite a race" and "fun" so my assertion that "he said he found it exciting" was not very far off at all. It was not supposed to be word for word correct obviously otherwise I would have put it in quotation marks. I would not trust a transcript to be exactly correct in any case.

What a funny read

[cavallino 2]

there is a difference between

It was only the two of us and the team said

[Max Mosley 2]

You're right. It is hard for me to figure out because he used the word race too. He clearly said he found the race (ie the time when he was on track) "fun" and "close" and said it was "quite a race". If you wanted to sum that up in one word which one would you use?
