Schu's New Job: Taxi Driver

In the latest whacky story to hit the F1 world, Schu is apparently Germany's fastest cab driver. According to the reports, Schu and his family (his wife and two kids) flew in to a Bavarian town to pick up an Australian Shepherd puppy called "Ed." When the Schumacher brood caught a cab back to the airport, time was already running short. What's a seven time world champion to do? Politely ask to take over the wheel of course! Cabbie Tuncer Yilmaz found himself in the passenger seat with the King gunning full throttle and over-took in some unbelievable places. Guess what? The experience pays for 60 euros (88 US dollars) fare, on top of the 100 euros (146 US dollars) tip. One can only wonder, how in the world he would be allowed to do that with his wife and kids in the backseat? Answer: they're probably too used to it.


Another off topic story might I add comes from the Kimster himself. His wife, Jenni Dahlman-Raikkonen, a model and former Miss Scandinavia is listed as one of the 165 entrants for the prestigious Munchen-Indoor equestrian event, held at the Olympiahalle in Munich. Now might you ask "would Kimi be a good and supportive husband and attend to cheer her on?" Well it didn't look that way since he's badly allergic to horses. But then again his manager Steve Robertson said "With Kimi you never know." And here's the shocker, he can actually joke. Okay maybe he could all along but only shows that happy camper him when he wins a WDC. Lately he's been a happy chatter, no complains there.

"Of course I support my wife. You can see the passion in Jenni for her own sport. The same passion which I have for racing -- although I do have more horsepower. I have tried riding with Jenni but I'm so badly allergic to horses that I couldn't really do it."

So who's story deserves "most entertaining." My vote's on Schu.
