jumping around on the podium like a baboon for one second.

At least the baboon jumping suggested there was some joy involved in winning... a wave and a half-smile is about all the others seem to give us.



In fact if I had to vote on a single instance of 'genuine joy' at winning a grand prix in recent history, then I think my vote would go to J Button after his only win....so far.


I'd vote for Eddie Jordan dancing down the pitlane after his teams 1-2 at Spa in 98

BTW I am going to the GP in Barcelona this year, but only because it is a freebie and I like the taste of free beer Tongue

As far as the jumping around on the podium goes, I'm old school about this subject.  Act like you've won before!
The greats always accepted the spoils of victory with a smile and diginity, scatter the bubbly and have some fun.  But Schumachers act reminds me way too much of the choreographed scoring celebrations we get from the stick & ball crowd, football players (International and American) doing their look-at-me dances.  It make work in those sports, but I think racing is something different.
