vintage karting championship Schumacher / rosberg/ Hamilton
should todays f1 stars should they do more guest races?
no copyright intended I don't own anything I am just trying to open a discussion on top level races doing guest appearances in lower category races.
I found some old footage I recorded in 2001 at the final round of the world karting championship in Kerpen Germany Micheal schumachers home town my upmost respect for Michael Schumacher to take on the best karters at the time in a race where he has so much to lose but Michael just loved to race in the 1st race he moved up the grid after problems in qualifying then goes off showing how tricky the conditions are but in the 2nd race he manages to finish 3rd overall on the road later 2nd after a penalty for another driver a fabulous result showing how great a driver he is.
I think todays f1 stars would be reluctant to do anything like this with various sponsor issues and to be honest I don't think many of todays f1 drivers would want to do it as they might be worried about there reputation if they did poorly but Michael just loved to race anything and was never worried about a challenge what do you think let me know in the comments for me I would love to see more of this stuff I speak from experience having raced against Jenson button and many other top drivers see my video here.
• DAN WHELDON MEMORIAL K... racing against top drivers is exciting for younger inexperienced drivers something we should encourage.i was lucky enough to race against Vitantonio Luizzi in a red bull karting challenge ( I overtook him in 1 race ) when he was in f1 with red bull Vitantonio Luizzi was the driver who won this 2001 world karting championship as you can see future f1 stars were in this race Luizzi / Nico Rosberg / Lewis Hamilton for them at the time I am sure they enjoyed racing against Michael for me I would like to see more of this let me know in the comments what you think do you want to see your favourite f1 stars do other lower category races ?.
keep fighting Michael
