I see that Eddie’s request to visit Michael Schumacher last year was refused by Corinne Schumacher but Mick “reached” out to Eddie and now Eddie is saying that Michael is “there but he’s not there.” Good decision by Corinne.
I had dealings with Eddie in his days as a F3 driver and he was not a man who kept secrets then. Gossip has always been his sideline.

It sounds like that means Eddie watched the Schumacher documentary on Netflix, because that's where Mick says that.

I saw mister blabber mouth at a bar in SW London getting cosy with a couple girls much younger than him.
Wonder how he would feel if someone blabbed about it to his wife!

Indeed.

People credit him for calling the Hamilton-to-Mercedes move before it was announced when, in reality, it was simply a case of a broken watch coincidentally reading the right time.

Yep, make up 5 stories at once for long enough and 1 will be right.

I liked it when Massa had his prang and EJ claimed his paddock sources had said just a bump on the chin etc, and coulthard just called him out on live TV saying “they must be telepathic, I’ve been stood next to you and you haven’t spoken to anyone this whole time”.

I liked DC more after that, it kind of made up for the fact he was going though a spray on strides / pointy shoe combo period.

Oh, and eddies weave. DC made plenty of mention about the risk of static etc which also cracked me up!

Its easy to rubbish Eddie, but he started his own F1 team (didnt buy it) and then built it up with some success to the point where he had a works engine deal at one stage, ran future and ex wdc's, had a brief shot at the title then sold the team for actual money at the right time......


Not many people are smart enough to do any of that. Several have failed.

there were alos rumours of him being a bit of an obnoxious cock when closing in on sponsorship deals, whereby he often got blown out of the boardroom by pissed off execs.

None of which means he can't also be a blabbermouth.

It kind of feels like you were defending him for something that he wasn't accused of though. No one said he is a bad manager, couldn't run a team or wasn't successful. Just that he is a blabbermouth.

I remember when EJ and Suzie Perry were on the F1 commentating team .....it looked obvious that Eddie was drooling over her........he looked desperate ( to me)
