Coulthard rules out talks with Schumacher

David Coulthard has said he will not now be having one-to-one talks with Michael Schumacher over their clash in the French Grand Prix a fortnight ago

The Scot slated the double world champion for his dangerous driving, claiming he tried to push the McLaren driver off the track as they scrapped for the lead.

Coulthard was also concerned the Ferrari number one swerved into his path at the start of the race, which Coulthard went on to win.

After the victory that catapulted him back into the title race, Coulthard said he would be confronting his title rival. But he passed up the opportunity when they tested side by side at Mugello in Italy last week.

Shortly after arriving at the A1 Ring for Sunday's Austrian Grand Prix, he said: " No, I haven't talked to Michael. I have not had the chance. But I don't think there is anything particular that Michael and I need to discuss.

"It's not a big issue," he added, "but what we need to have is agreement of exactly what the rules are. That is why I will be looking for clarification in the driver's meeting this weekend."
