Michael Schumacher's daily car is a...

[Shull]

Suzuki Liana ah... Which episode ah bro. I think if using Liana then must be quite sometime ago liao cos they change to Chevrolet Optra (Magnum???) quite sometime already.

 

yup..latest eps of season 13..

 

they keep the liana specially for visiting current and ex-F1 drivers..like that then can compare mah..

[Silver_blade]

I think there isn't much choice for a family car to choose from. He probably have to choose from cars under Fiat group.

alfa romeo give him a 156 GTA to drive!

 

 

and he is the test driver for ferrari now .I think it's the best job for him .

michael schumacher ran me over in a van .

He is well known for being very thrifty. Even his children receive nominal pocket money for their schooling.

 

hmm, tat im not so sure. i know he owns a private jet

[Felipe]

WRONG..he failed miserably when asked to drive the manual suzuki liana around top gear's track recently..

 

tats not a true story lah

[Shull]

tats not a true story lah

 

i don't know whether it's a publicity stunt or what..but there's no reason for him NOT to do the lap seriously what..i mean, alot of other current and ex F1 drivers have done their laps in the liana..

[Felipe]

The other car he drives is the fiat 500. For guys like him who drives fast cars all the time in other situations, sometimes all u wan with your family is a practical car. and since he works for Fiat, i can only understand why he drives the croma. the 500 is probably a car he uses when alone.

Schumi has been known to hate losing. Some stories mentioned when Kimi signed for Ferrari, Schumi called it quits. So im not surprised he did not want to drive the Liana. And someone also stated he drove older manual stick shift F1 cars early on in his career. If i can still drive manual after years of auto, i don't see why the best racer in the world can't.

bro... u'r talking about someone who has proven it all.

 

1 by 1 formula 1 world records were broken by him.

 

from karting, to motorbiking, to racing in snow, to formula 1 etc

 

 

u think he mind losing in the liana?

 

and to be frank, i doubt he'll lose. on the other hand, he was showing others (in jest) that even "He" might have problem with the Manual Stick.

like u said, he's the best racer in the world.

 

why will there be a need for the world's renowned "best" to prove to Top Gear fans when he has proven himself to the world?

fiat panda loh

[Fcw75]

I dun tink he's doing very well in motorcycling. U sure?

Michael Schumacher owns a fleet of car and its quite inconceivable that his daily car is FIAT 500 or croma.

 

The only reason i can think of and quite obviously is because he is trying to promote FIAT's brand name

There are folks here who are many times richer and have more cars than MS, and yet drive a Japanese saloon as a daily car.

It's a show bro. Like what some other posters have said, Schumacher declaring that he is the Stig is most probably just part of the show i.e. he is not the real Stig. At the end of the episode, Jeremy Clarkson also expressed doubt as to whether Schumacher is really the Stig after seeing the Schumacher Stig make a mess of his lap around their track.

 

Besides, he is probably the only driver Ferrari will allow to drive the FXX off their own track anyway.

Do you know the net worth of Michael Schumacher? Based on open sources (Forbes.com 2008 data), there are only 5 individuals / families in Singapore whose net worth are higher than him. I do know that there are many folks here who are very wealthy, but I do not think there is anyone in this forum who is many times richer than him.

He need not promote as FIAT is the parent company of ferrari and a few others italian brand.

Err, if you take and accept the Forbes' figures.... A certain person who lost 1B recently is in not even in the $B club?.....

Here doesn't mean MCF.
