Excellent!!!! I see Schneider didn't do very good, I always thought of him as the best driver of all the AMG teams.

Schneider would have finished better, but he had a drive-through penalty for exceeding the pit-lane speed limit. They nailed Alesi for the same offense.

I like Schneider quite a bit, but I think Alesi is probably a better driver. Alesi's still pretty new to sedan racing (Schneider has been doing it since 1992), I think one of the two of them will end up being the best Mercedes driver this year. Should be an interesting battle.

Cheers, BT

PS: Here's a cool Schneider wallpaper, enjoy!
