The day Nico Rosberg And Lewis Hamilton's title battle boiled over at the 2015 United States Grand Prix.
the German F1 iconBritish motorsport legend Herbert was alongside Schumacher for the first of his seven world titles in 1994 and 1995.
Herbert was more than accustomed to the trials and tribulations of racing in the same team as a future world champion by then. His account was refuted in Herbert's autobiography, and laughing while doing so, the Brit confirmed the roles were indeed reversed. “I think Sebastian was another one. We never really saw it. Everybody used to hate that didn’t they, when the finger went up, you know, number one. Number one, number one.“It was only a little bit later that we saw that. But there is also with teams, of course, they want to have the drivers doing the corporate right thing at the same time.”Herbert continued by recalling post-race antics from the 90s era of F1 that would be impossible in today's world.
Herbert explained to talkSPORT: “There's a time and a place for , and that's where Michael was very good at doing exactly what he needed to do in front of the media, doing exactly what he needed to do when he was with the engineer in the cockpit itself.“But then there was that release that came out at the same time where that's the sense of humour, the British sense of humour and television - Sebastian definitely with Monty Python, where he liked that, that type of humour.
And Max? 'He’s damn exciting when he's on the track', Herbert says with a grin. “I thoroughly enjoy watching him when he's driving. But there are those, just those little things like that, what happened in Singapore, which is something that you'll want to see a little bit less of sometimes, but we want to see it when they're in the car.”
