The original question was fine, it was the pushing to Mika when Michael couldn't answer that sucked.

But in a way didn't that add to the emotion of the moment? Having Mika getting choked up and asking to stop?

I think it shows the respect people like Mika and others STILL have for Michael today.

For you Schumi and/or Merc fans, here are a few pics I dug up of Michael from the 2013 USGP & a handful from 2012 (the first 3).

ETA: LOL. Holy shit. I forgot the years, & the helmets were similar. The first 3 are Schumi 2012 & the rest are Lewis 2013. That was Lewis's Michael Jackson tribute helmet, & it looked a lot like Schumi's 2012 lid. Oh well, enjoy some Merc photos!

Please do.

I'm still smiling from the time when Pinoschumi was calling the Merc's "toilet seat" back on the old SPEED boards.

Couple of things:

I'll never watch this doc. I'll remember Michael as I remember him. I'm not going to let anyone influence that. I got to meet the man and have a laugh with him in Indy. :smokin

Seeing Michael in a Mercedes car makes me want to puke. :barf

I've heard several times that Michael's input and work at MB is what helped them develop a car that has dominated that last several years. Its too bad he didn't get to see any of that success when he was driving for them.

If Michael had not driven Sports Cars for Mercedes back in the day there is a pretty good chance he never would have been into F1. At the time there was bias against German drivers in F1, seemed like only the Austrians were fast. So him driving for Mercedes opened those eyes and they saw his talent. I do not think the documentary would stain your memory at all. Very well done, very fair and showed him for who he was.
