This is too funny:

CHINESE PUZZLE OVER SCHUEY
Last Updated: Thursday, 23, September, 2004, 16:06


Michael Schumacher avoided seeing red when he met his Chinese hosts for the first time on Wednesday.

The conference descended into farce almost immediately when a local journalist asked Schumacher: “Why do you always race in red? Is it your lucky colour?”

Schumacher patiently explained that Ferrari had historically always raced in red, before tactfully adding that he hoped the colour, which is considered lucky in China, would benefit him this weekend.

The very next journalist to put his hand up asked Schumacher whether it was possible for him to win the world title this weekend.

Somehow managing to keep a straight face, Schumacher informed the questioner that he had in fact won the championship four weeks ago in Belgium.

Schumacher was also asked what he thought of the demise of “his former team, Jaguar”. The German carefully explained that he had never driven for the Ford-owned outfit.
