Schumacher's Debut Q & A

The full transcript of Michael Schumacher's interview with Adam Cooper, just two hours after his sensational qualifying debut with Jordan in the 1991 Belgian Grand Prix

Q: We spoke at the Nurburgring [WSC] race about Spa you said it's not possible, it would be too quick if it happened, because you had no experience in F1...

Schumacher: "That's right, it wasn't fixed at Nurburgring. We just heard that there's a chance to do it, but they don't involve me really in what's going on, because then I would have a clear head for the race. But after the race anyway I had to go to England, because I had a meeting with Jackie Oliver. I just saw him and we talked together, and after this meeting I went directly to Eddie [Jordan], and then I heard that I can do the race."
