Michael Schumacher will start last for today’s Belgian GP after crashing out of a disastrous qualifying session at Spa.
A string of celebrations were arranged by Mercedes to mark the 20th anniversary of his debut here in 1991. But there was little to cheer yesterday.
The seven-time champion became the first to skid out of qualifying after a rear wheel fell off on his first lap. Yet Schumacher was able to crack a joke that harked back to the year he crashed into the back of David Coulthard, ripping off a front wheel in Spa’s infamous spray.
He said: “It is difficult to drive on three wheels, even if I have the experience to do so at Spa.
“There is no reason to blame anyone. We are all human.”
