Schumi prepares for endurance bike race with another spill

Michael Schumacher is at Oschersleben in Germany this weekend for an eight-hour endurance race, part of the FIM-sanctioned World Endurance Series.

According to reports from Germany, Schumacher has already fallen off once whilst practising for Saturday’s race, for which he will compete on a Honda for the Holzhauer Racing team.

What is that, like the 58th time he’s eaten tarmac this year? Seems like it.

Who knew Deutsche Post could be this sexy?

Oschersleben, Germany: Today’s grid girl, from the DTM motorsport series, is brought to you by the letter ‘D’, as in D for Deutsche Post. With time-honoured German attention to detail, she is wearing a chequered flag belt, no doubt to a) help keep up her lemon-yellow hot pants, and b) remind spectators that they are at a motor race.
