Oh, Teddy, Teddy, Ted…

Don’t get me wrong, I actually quite like Ted Kravitz - he is probably the second guy I’d like to see join BBC next year along with Martin Brundle.
But I have to take exception to something he has written in his post-race notebook article on ITV’s website.
Talking about Michael Schumacher’s appearance in the paddock at Barcelona last weekend, he states that Michael was apparently upset at some media coverage of his 8-year old son’s first outing in a kart. Now I can understand why Michael would be annoyed by this - if his son Mick does enter the motorsport arena, then the pressure on his shoulders is going to be unbelievable. Because of this, it seems a fairly reasonable request from Schumacher that the media leave his son alone for now until he decides whether this motorsport malarkey is really the path he wants to take.
